American Flair

I loved the Launch 12 for both running and walking from day one that I had them. They look smart, too!

Will Never Go Back To Hoka

Excellent! Just enough squish but does not sacrifice support at all. Hugs tight from the laces to the arch support. Way better than flabby hoka. Already picking out my next color.

The shoes are great! I really like the springy responsive feeling when running. The perfect amount of cushion and firmness. My only wish is that there were better colors to choose from. I feel the overall color selection is bland. I’m someone that likes to wear a brightly colored running shoes.

Very Comfortable And Patriotic

Not only are these Patriotic looking, they are very comfortable and feel great. I took them for a nice 5 mile walk the first day that they arrived and a couple of other days since then. I definitely recommend these to everyone.

So-so

I order the USA shoes every year and this one was the least cute. I was disappointed that they didn’t add a special “250” to the shoe.

Nice solid built shoe that remains lightweight but sturdy. Nice cushioned landings with good traction. Would definitely recommend and will probably buy another pair soon.

A Ghost Loyalist Converted: The Launch 12 Won Me Over

I've been wearing the Brooks Ghost for years. When I find a shoe I like and works well for me, I stick with it. So for me to stray from my usual model and try a new shoe is a big deal. All the reviews for the Launch were people saying they love it and use it for an everyday trainer. I agree 100%. I ran a 20 mile training run yesterday and remember telling my running partner that I couldn't believe how much I love these shoes! I've put over 100 miles on the Launch already in training runs and I'm so impressed with the feel of this shoe. Not only is it very comfortable on my foot, but it feels right on the run. The side wall doesn't carve into my ankle, there's the perfect amount of cushioning balanced from the back of the shoe to the front, and the laces and tongue don't put pressure on the top of my foot when I cinch them down. The cherry on top is the design. I'm a veteran and very patriotic, so the red, white and blue design with USA printed on the side of the sole was a big selling point. I'm sold on the Launch 12.

Cross Country Runner

I bought these for my son who is running for the first time with his school's cross country team. We took the "shoe finder" test and this is the one it said was best for him. They feel great and run well. He really likes them, and we would definitely purchase again. They also fit well. true to size.
