Customer Reviews Brooks Launch 8

Love the color pattern. I tried another brand but came back to Brooks because they fit my foot so well.

When 1st putting on, felt a bit roomy but having Wide feet was appreciated by the toes. Only walking about inside my home just to break cuz an hour in felt like that needed to happen. Feel a bit tight at the top laces area but could be adjusted. Looking forward to testing them out on a wet path to see how they do, my reason for buying. An added bonus is the Return Policy ?? I got Black but wishing I had picked ones with some color! Oh! & based off the reviews I got 8.5 when I usually buy 9 in Shoe & Boot, Happy I did cuz the width & size are Great!

Great shoe. Not as much cushion as other Brooks but very supportive.

The fit and quality are good, but not great. I much preferred the Brooks Ghost for ~20$ more. They lasted about 6 months in good shape and by 12 months were completely worn out, which is a touch faster than usual for my running shoes. Photo is at 10 months of wear.

Overall the fit was pretty good, but the toe box is a little bigger than I'd like. I use these mostly for HIIT type workouts and my foot can slip inside the shoe when I change directions quickly. When walking or running this is not an issue.

Very comfortable. I like the style. Could have a bit more cushion in the heel.

Shoes fit just fine and they arrived two days after I bought them. Was happy with the service

I usually have to go up to 12 as my feet are slightly diff sizes. These fit great. They're light and comfortable. Brooks is great for me as I pronate and have a bunch of ankle/tendon issues and the stabilizers are great. I recommend.

Excelent

Nice round toe box, especially for the little toes. Very comfortable even after a day standing on concrete.

Nice round toe box, very comfortable. Sole is a little softer than I like, but otherwise great.

I am a big Brooks fan and prior to the purchase of the Launch 8 I exclusively wore their Ghost 11 and Ghost 12. The Launch 8 model doesn’t feel as secure or cushioned as the Ghost Model, but there’s definitely an even trade off because they excel in speed and road feel unlike the Ghost. I think they’ll be good to have for a weekend tempo run, but won’t be my daily runners. Not a bad thing. Final note: I purchased the banana-themed model and there are such unique design details from the brown & yellow speckled midsole all the way to the banana stickers included in the box. Really fun touches!
