Launch 8 Running Shoe (Women)

I'm obsessed with the Brooks launch. I owned some of the first iterations (Launch 2&3) and this is my first time trying them since. They are better than I remembered! The perfect amount of cushion without being "too much shoe". Love the lightweight feel. I am back to being a Brooks diehard! One thing to note is that, although I am a true size 9 in regular shoes/ 9.5 in running shoes, my previous Launch shoes were a size 9.5 and 10. I bought my typical size 9.5 and had to size DOWN to a 9... so bizarre! Regardless, I'm obsessed!

I have worn Brooks for years since I developed Plantar Fasciitis 15 years ago. I got tired of the really clunky & big stabilizing soles, although they helped heal my feet. When I got these Launch 8s, I was worried they were too light. Turns out they are fantastic! I’ve lived in them for the last 2 days- dog walking, at the gym and everything else in between. So good on my feet I’m seriously considering getting a 2nd pair!

I have always been a fan of Brooks. I got s lot of compliments on these shoes, especially the color. i only wear Brooks when i will be on feet for long hours at work. The only thing that bugged me was the shoelace, it’s different than the ones that i am used to; it’s kind of too small/skinny and short, other than that brooks shoes are comfortable. I wear 7.5-8.5 depending on the style and if the brand runs big or small, but mostly 8. I purchased the 8.5 in these shoes they are for work.
