It’s not often that you find a running shoe for under $150, which means it always catches our eye. There are often drawbacks to the technology in cheaper shoes, but we wanted to see if that held true for the new Brooks Launch 11.
As someone who typically gravitates towards the Ghost, Ghost Max and Glycerin, I was excited to see what the Brooks Launch 11 had to offer. Let’s dive in and see who could benefit from the latest in the Launch family.
Who Is It Good For?
Who is Brooks Launch 11 a good fit for? Let’s break it down with some common categories:
- Wide Feet: Brooks has you covered! Go for the medium and wide option!
- Heavier Runners: The supercritical foam is unlikely to have a long lifespan.
- Long Runs: Might depend on what you call long, we’d say good up to 13.1 miles for those who like a less cushioned shoe.
- Front of the Pack: These shoes fit true to size and with the DNA Flash Foam, it’s ideal for those easy and recovery paced miles.
This will be great budget minded lightweight running shoe for the everyday 3-5 mile runner.
