Good basic walking shoe, not meant for long-distance, outside walk/running.

I've been wearing Brooks for about 10 years now. Every new pair I get seem to be made with less quality. Also the shoestrings are getting to be the worse you can buy. The reason I started wearing the shoe is for the quality build, hopefully the next pair will be better.

They have no cushion inside on the sole. They hurt my feet after working 12hrs, they need a soft insole.

I love Brooks shoes but I am not impressed but the Launch Gts 8. After a long day my feet actually hurt. In my other Brooks shows they do not hurt like feet. I have Adrenaline and Ghost 4 and love both of them.

They are good but my toes end up hurting because there isn?t much padding it feels like at the front of the shoe.

It?s not as supportive as other types. I bought mainly because it was less expensive than other Brook shoes. I never run, just use them for cycling and daywear. I have flat feet, over pronante and occasionally plantar fasciitis.

I like the look of the Launch but they are not as comfortable as I would like. I will not be purchasing them again.

I'm a walker, not a runner. Very light shoe. Usually order Adrenalin GTS, but my size and color not available, do thought I'd try the Launch. They do not seem to have the support and seem wider than the Adrenalin. Haven't tried a long walk in these shoes yet, so still not sure how they'll feel after long 3-5 miler.

I love the color and the way they are made. I work in a nursing home so I am constantly on my feet. They are not as comfortable as what I thought they would be or like my other co-workers were talking about their brooks. Maybe I just didn't get the right kind I need for being on my feet so much.

No arch support, but the footbed is comfortable. They are labeled the same size (9) as my old Brooks Ricochet but fit at least a half-size longer. Also, the toe is narrower and the area just past the laces - where it can't be adjusted - is too narrow/not deep enough to quite fit the thickness of my foot. The heel was quite wide as well; they slid up and down on my heels no matter how I adjusted the laces.

Lightweight, good cushion, not as stable as I would like. My feet feel like they are rolling to outside.

It?s a stable shoe. My main issue is that it isn?t much different from the regular Launch. I LOVE the Ravenna, and this was supposed to replace that shoe but it DOESN?T. It also doesn?t run true to size, I need to size down a half size for any of the Launch styles. Like I said, Brooks quality shoe, just not what I expected to get.

I have been a loyal Brooks Ravenna customer for many years and was unhappy with the performance of my last pair. Coincidentally they were discontinued after that version. Launch GTS is supposed to be a comparable shoe for my support needs. The shoe itself is ok. But I cannot stand the flat skimpy laces which Brooks seems to have switched to across product lines. They are cheap and lousy and I can feel them wearing down every time I tie my shoe. PLEASE go back to the better more durable laces!!!

The left shoe fit perfectly and felt great but my arch on my right foot hurt every time I wore them. Sending back and will try a different style. I love all the Brooks shoes I have had but these just didn?t do it for me
