How it ranks
The Brooks Launch 10 is one of the strongest daily trainers in our data. Value and comfort are its strongest sub-ratings. The rating rests on 12 runner reviews and 11 other rated shoes in the Launch product line.
Confidence
How settled the rating is against every other rated shoe. A shoe can rate high on confidence with relatively few reviews of its own when its product line has a long record and external ratings from retailer sites agree. Confidence will score low when we have few ratings or when runners disagree.

Overall
These are the most comfortable shoes that I have run in over the years. I recommend these shoes to all of the people I come across. I also put most of my athletes in theses shoes for training purposes.
