Above average (85/100)
This score rates better than 74% of shoes.
Our ratings use detailed reviews from knowledgeable runners, ratings for shoes in the same product line, and reliable product information from trusted retailers.
Rankings combine runner ratings, whether reviewers say they'd buy a shoe again, direct comparisons to other shoes, related product-line performance, and trusted external ratings.
The darker band shows the central score range. The lighter band shows a wider range of reasonable outcomes. More reviews for this shoe usually narrow both bands.

Light weight, comfortable, medium heel to toe drop that helps me stay on a forefoot strike. Fits my narrow heeled feet well yet with a roomy toe box. Love the Launch. Have had multiples of each version (except 5) since the shoe's inception.
