The greatest shoes I have ever worn and I will never wear anything other tennis shoe!
I purchased these shoes on a whim after being fitted for a pair of Brooks Adrenaline. In the past year or 2 I have noticed my arches are dropping and my left foot is constantly in excruciating pain from what I suspect is plantar fasciitis. Nothing has helped and being I work in healthcare and am on my feet a solid 8 plus working hours not to mention before and after work I needed something that will allow me to work and doesn’t effect my walking as my other shoes have in the past. After spending an hour and a half being fitted and walking around the store in multiple brands of shoes I chose Asics bc they are a shoe that is known to help people who are on their feet like I am. I came home and looked on Amazon for the exact Brooks shoe to purchase at a cheaper price to give them a try. I came across other types of Brooks and liked the Brooks Launch color scheme better. I am not a multi color shoe person the less color the better. I purchased the Launches over the other pair based only on the color. I wore the Asics and they decreased my pain slightly so I knew I was on the right track. The Launches were the greatest shoe purchase I have EVER made! My feet do NOT hurt at all and if so it is minimal and I am able to walk without hobbling. I have gotten to where I wear them hours after I get off bc they are that comfortable and the pain is gone until I remove them. A week after I purchased them I ordered 2 more pairs bc it never fails if it works for me they stop making it and I get screwed. I plan to purchase another couple pairs bc they are that comfortable! Anyone who is searching for a comfortable shoe should definitely consider these shoes. I hope they work for others as well as they do for me.
