Is it possible to get more color options? There?s not a good selection.

Love love love...and I wasn't planning to! The guiderails are exactly what I need. I've run in so many Brooks styles that I adore in one version and hate in the next, like everyone else. My last Launch purchase disappointed, but I do love this shoe. Perhaps just about 40 miles on them, but I have no complaints!

These are my new favorite sneakers! I bought them for work as I’m on my feet for 12 hours at times. I love them so much that I find myself wearing them on my days off. I sold on these!

When I received these shoes in the mail, I was concerned about a lack of structure in these shoes due to how light they seemed, especially with the ball-toe area being mesh. I could not have been more wrong about how these shoes turned out to be. They are perfectly balanced, light but hold you in tight, and they don't shift your foot around too much. Great arch and heel support, while providing plenty of room in the toes. The laces are nice too and never seem to come undone.

I absolutely love this shoe. I do not run but walk on hard concrete floors all day all week. I do have a bunyon and this shoe gives me lots of room for that and wonderful support and cushion as advertised. I normally was an Adrenaline GTS girl but this shoe is my new go to. Thankyou!

First off I love the color. This shoe combines what I love about each shoe type. It?s got the support I need with the GTS while giving me the look and feel that I like about Launch.

I was hesitant to try another shoe as I've been doing so well with the Levitate model. I have been struggling with a shin bruise, foot discomfort on my longer runs & left hip labral pain, specifically in the push off phase of the run stride so thought I'd try the Launch as they provide guiderails & a bit more cushion. So far I can say I'm super happy with these shoes. Shin pain is almost gone & labral pain getting better. Oh, and another benefit is these shoes are someone lighter than the Levitate and overall I've seen a decrease in my minutes per mile. If I were to make any change to this shoe it would be to add the sock like heel as that definitely seems to reduce heel movement.

I have not run in them yet but they are super comfortable to walk in which is why I bought them. I'm a huge fan of the Ghost 12 and 13s. Most comfortable running show I've ever owned.

I usually order a 9.5 in all my brooks shoes but these definitely run half size too big. Returned for a 9 and they fit much better.
I'd also recommend:

Love Launch shoes, have been wearing them for several years. Haven?t quite decided if I notice a difference, will have to wear them a few more times. I don?t wear the same shoes for every run, rotate about 9 pairs.

I have planter fasciitis in both of my feet and extra bones in both of my feet. My feet are always in pain. I have been wearing Brooks for over 5 years now and won?t wear anything other brand sneaker. These shoes are the only reason I can walk around! I?m a vet tech and I am constantly on the go at work. I love these shoes!

I was worried about these sneakers because I have always worn Ravenna?s. But, these prove to be as great a shoe. It?s a perfect fit, they are nice and light and have the perfect support.
