Customer Reviews Brooks Launch 6

My second pair of these and they are so uncomfortable. Loved my first pair so much but for these I Had to buy inserts and still don't know if I'll be able to wear them. Felt like needs going through my feet after about 2 miles.

I would never recommend the shoes to anybody. I've had them for a little over a year and I keep trying them on in hopes that they will magically be better. But my right foot feels like it's moving sideways in the heel is falling through when working out and my toes go numb. I got a hold of the company when I first bought them but they were not much help at all. I am very disappointed and overall upset about the sneakers that I was so excited to get.

Laces different lengths, cheaply made. Returned them.

I've worn previous versions of the launch that fit well but this one is both small and large in the wrong places. My insole slips inside of them and the heel slips off. The rest of the shoe like the toebox and top and tight in comparison.

I loved the Launch 5's and bought several pairs. I'm sad to say this new version does not work. The top of my foot hurts abominably around the lacing. So frustrating. Sent them back.

Please bring back the Launch 5!! I've been wearing the Brooks Launch for years. It's the only shoe that had worked for my hard to fit feet. Something changed in this update that caused major foot pain. It seems like the are longer and more narrow. Very disappointed

I loved my Launch 5s so I was super excited to try these. However, I experienced a lot of discomfort on the top of my foot where the laces are. Unfortunately, this pain came on very quickly whether I was running or walking, and continued to linger for days after. I can't even wear these shoes for 10 minutes without feeling pain or discomfort. I would like to see something like the Launch 5s again!

I have had so many pairs of the launch 4 and need a new pair. I've been putting it off since they no longer exist. Based on these reviews sounds like you need to bring back the 4!

This version of the Launch is really disappointing. I had 2s and 4s and thought they were both great. The 6 feels really heavy and clunky, not to mention that they pinch my feet on top near the laces. I took them on a few runs and tried to get used to them, but sadly, they remained as uncomfortable as my first impression. Honestly, I expect more from a running shoe. Do better next time, Brooks.

I have been running in Brooks Launch for a long time. I've had several versions, including three of the Launch 5s. I was training for the Chicago Marathon and had originally gotten a new pair of the 6s with just enough time to break them in for the marathon, however, they were super uncomfortable, pinching my feet from the laces. I noticed that the 5s are padded all the way through the tongue, but the 6s are not, which is what I think makes them so uncomfortable there. While the laces seemed to pinch my feet, my heels also felt loose in the back. I tried adjusting and readjusting and got them semi-decent to run in, but then a sharp pain in my foot came after my third run in them. I was super nervous about having to run the marathon in them. Luckily, I found a store that still had my size in the Launch 5 version and was able to get them in time for the marathon.

Bring back the Launch 2!!! Most supportive and by far comfortable shoe I've ever owned. I'm disappointed that I can't find a shoe similar to them.

I've loved this shoe since the Launch 2 for all my interval training workouts, but this update is unbearable. The toebox is way too narrow. Just walking around my house my pinkie toe was hitting the edge, so I realized there was no way I could even try a workout. Please go back to the drawing board for the 7s. Until then, I'll scour the Internet for old versions to stock up on.
