Not much cushioning, so my legs feel tired after a long walk. The fit is fine, but I will be wearing them to the grocery store instead of for running.

I've been loyal to New Balance running shoes for years - specifically the Zante line - but wanted to give Brooks brand a try, and I looove this model! The insoles are quite cushy, there's ample room in the toebox, and the shoe provides a good amount of "spring." I ordered a half size larger than my casual shoes (a 9 instead of an 8.5) and am glad I did as the 8.5 would have been a little tight. The only negative is they don't breathe very well so my feet got hot on their 4 mile maiden voyage. There is no arch support which works great for me, but if you need built-in arch support you may want to keep looking. I wasn't in love with any of the color options but chose the green with gold and they look better in person than online.
I'd also recommend:

Love these shoes! Went back for more Adrenaline (can't remember which number, 19 maybe?), and they were sold out completely, so decided to try these since they were on sale. They fit and work, score! I will say these do not have any arch support, but I always add insoles with support to my shoes anyway, so this doesn't matter to me. Very comfy and nice stride. Using solely for work and walking, not running, but they work well for my needs. Came back for a second pair up since I liked so much!

Love this shoe. I’ve been a Brooks fan for more than 25 years. I was a runner in my younger years and have always found a Brooks shoe that worked for me. I no longer run at 61 years old and these shoes are perfect for working out at the gym, walking and general wear. I also interchange them with Addiction, at my docs suggestion. Good recommendation. They are awesome and switching off is great, as I have foot problems, bunions and I pronate. Brooks are great for supporting my feet which is crucial. I have tried others, ASICS, Saucony, New Balance, Adidas and none of these worked as well for me with my wide instep and bunions. I’m a loyal Brooks fan.

I chose these shoes based on them being an ounce lighter than other brooks options. I wanted a shoe that was light and airy but did not take away from the cushiony comfort I have grown accustomed to with brooks. They have done just that! I feel springy in my steps and lighter on my feet while still managing to be very comfortable! I absolutely love the blue color I picked with the bright yellow details. Would definitely buy these again!

I love this sneaker! The Brooks Launch 6 is just like the other reviews state, I wore them right out of the box and the fit and comfort were perfect!

Perfect fit for my 7.5 narrow foot. Love the purple & charcoal grey color combination. 3rd pair of sneakers from the Brooks Launch line.

I love the instant comfort of these shoes- I have a wide width and there was enough room in both toe boxes for me.. (since my left foot is a little wider sometimes this presents a problem- but not here)... My only complaint is that this sneaker is a bit lower on the sides than my former Brooks11 and provides less support around the ankle... Tying it up to the last lace hole helps, but then the shoe lace was too short... And there was only 1 color choice in my size (7.5 Wide)... I would really like a black or darker sneaker for the winter...

I like these shoes, but I have to say that I liked the Launch 5 better. These feel a little tighter, a little lighter, a little cheaper. But I'm keeping them! They're good every day short run shoes.

Love all Brooks shoes, usually buy Adrenaline but really love this Launch 6 model. Very comfortable and no break in time needed.

after much shopping and trying with Zappos, Brooks Launch 6 was perfect choice for my workouts. Great style and fit. These work much better
for me than the Asics Gel 21

Beautiful shoes. Very responsive. I have feet on the narrow side with high arches and hate shoes that feel wide where my foot moves around side to side a lot. These are perfect. Snug, but comfortably snug.

Found my shoes! I tried A LOT of pairs of shoes for general working out and walking after my old pair (New Balance) wore out. I used to wear size 8 wide, but had been feeling cramped lately. So I tried 8.5 in this shoe... it wasn't available in wide, so I got the normal width and they're perfect! So comfortable, and I've gone on several one hour-plus walks in them. No hot spots, blisters or sore feet. Love them. Bonus, the color scheme is really attractive (Latigo/Pacific/Nightlife).

Have not worn these yet, I ordered a half size larger than I wear to accommodate my orthotics and when I received them, I still felt they were a little too tight. I returned and am awaiting the delivery of the next size. The reason I decided to go ahead and write the review is that I called customer service to discuss the exchange, and I cannot say enough about the hospitality of Zappos customer service.
They are a throwback to the days when customer service was a highly valued mission at most companies. Now, they are the exception, and IT
SEPARATES them from their competition! Way to go Zappos!

Lightweight, pretty and in a wide size. I use my own insert, but most won't need to...will probably get another pair.

Was suffering from plantar fasciitis. New insoles from Samarai and Launch 6 shoes cured it. Great shoes. Will never wear any other brand or model.

These shoes are so comfortable. I love it feels just as stabilizing as the Ghosts but with a more streamline profile (the ghosts are awesome but visually have more of a bulk to them than these). These have held up great and are my go-to shoe for the gym, runs, walks, or chasing my kids around the playground. Love them!!
