Customer Reviews Brooks Launch GTS 8

Love love love these shoes. Perfect all around comfortable and all day use for me. Keep up the fantastic work ????????

Shoe is very comfortable and provides good support.

Great shoe with support and cushioning. The only thing I dislike about them are the shoestrings. They never stay tied unlike my other Brooks shoes.

Cute and comfortable. Run a little large though.

I have to say everything about this shoe is great! It's comfortable and lightweight. The only draw back is that my feet get REALLY warm in them.

Half size to big and unable to find anywhere how to return, decided to just keep them anyways. Use them for my 12 hr shifts at hospital and my feet don?t hurt at all anymore.

Fits well i mu usual size with a small amount of looseness in the in the back ankle/ heel area. I have tied the very tight. The laces seem thin, not round and stretchy like in the adrenalines. I prefer the latter. Otherwise they feel good.

These are a perfect fit and have performed very well. That's saying a lot because I have very narrow, hard to fit, flat feet.

Good shoe, pretty narrow which can make the arch support a little awkward

I really like these shoes. They are extremely lightweight and supportive.

I purchased The Launch GTS 8 from a recommendation from a Jazzercise Instructor. I was looking for a more supportive shoe for Jazzercise classes and these are working really well for me. I am now able to do certain moves that do not aggravate my feet because of the support these shoes offer!

I love the cushion sole of this shoe. The only downside is the ankles don't feel as secure as some of my other running shoes so I have to tie them extra tight at the top.

As usual, I put these shoes on and they were super comfortable, fit great, and I could go out on my run with no break-in time, no chafing, no blisters, no stopping to tie my laces....I am willing to pay what is to me big bucks for these shoes. I will say, I ordered "lavender" ones, since I don't want black...and they are somewhat hideous. Maybe they'll be better with some wear, or at least dirt. But really, that's hardly important.

I came from the Adrenaline. These feel lighter, but do not have the same cushion or arch support. I do love them, I just feel the lighter support during certain agility activities. They have worked out well so far.

Not as comfortable as my Ravenna 10 but still more comfortable than other brands.

Delivery was great and fast. My first pair of ?Brooks?, and recommended by several folks, but I was a bit disappointed that I didnt feel that the shoes were any more comfortable than what I currently wear. I use them for walking on the treadmill, I am unable to run. It may be that I need to order the ?Wide? width as they seem to fit pretty snug. They are a beautiful shoe and have had tons of compliments from folks,

Love this shoe. Soft and comfortable. Only the top comes up to rub my ankle. Maybe I needed smaller size. Oh, and I walk/run on dirt road and sand comes in toe fabric - cool but sand gets in. My last pair did not rub my ankle. Nevertheless, I really am happy with these shoes.

Used for walking, provides support without pinching arthritic joints at the base of the big toes.

Not a big into running but I do stand all day and they have great support! Oh

Not quite as cushioned as I expected

I like them, but not as well as the Ghost. They?re a little less aupportive around the ankle and they feel loose on my foot - same size.

I've worn adrenaline GTS shoes for 18 years, which I loved for the support. The launch 8 GTS was on sale and I liked the color scheme better than the current adrenalines and offered a shoe from a brand I love with the guide rail system in place. I wore them to walk around in the first full day I had them. They felt different in the sole compared with the adrenalines which ended up making my feet hurt after a few hours. I've continued to wear them on different occasions and they still make my feet hurt after several hours, but not as bad as the first day. Maybe I'm still breaking them in. I don't know. Additionally, the shoe laces are thinner than the adrenalines, which make them more likely to come untied. Not necessarily a deal breaker, just different. Finally, the size of this shoe for some reason seems bigger than the adrenalines and a pair of ghosts that I have. All sizes 8.5, but ghosts have my toes right up against the end, the adrenaline has a comfortable wiggle room for daily use and running, these launch shoes have a full finger width of space at the end of the toe box. But overall, great brooks quality.

I have long coveted this color combination, and I love my Launch 7 for running. I switched up to the GTS to try a different fit, and I actually love it more than the regular Launch. My only complaint is that these are sized a bit bigger than the Launch 7; I could easily have sized down a half size (my true shoe size, not my regular Brooks size). I may purchase another pair in the smaller size, as I really do love this color combination!

Not thrilled with Ravenna being replaced with this. Seems the shoe is not a supportive as the Ravenna design. It is lightweight though.

Best shoesI have gotten in a long time. Comfortable for ask the walking I do in concrete
