   > Fans of the old Brooks Burn can finally clean out their closets!

   Thank god! LOL!

   Been running in the Launch since it was Launched. Very nice shoe. HUGE improvement in the forefoot fit relative to The Burn. Well Done!

   Great shoe but what were you thinking when you went with red and orange.

   It reminds me of the Newton’s - Nasty!

   Come on guys.

   I am glad that there is finally a Burn replacement, but who picks these colors? Is it the same color blind person who picked that awful green for the Defyance?

   By far the best neutral running shoe out there right now. It’s got a soft ride, it’s responsive, and I am most impressed with it’s longevity. I’ll be racing in these at Hood to Coast this weekend!

   These shoes are awesome. They give you a lot of support, almost as much as Asics Nimbus but much lighter. Oh, and I love the colors.

   I agree about the aweful colors. Please, the next color update needs to be base white with accent colors.

   I tried a pair on at our local running store and thought I was in 7th heaven, however, I just can’t spend the money on such a ugly shoe. PLEASE, PLEASE, update the color soon. I promise your sales improve 20% +.

   I can see how you wanted to make a statement and you feel that such a great show deserves to be seen by all, but red and hunters orange……

    I have not been able to wear these shoes, but I feel the same way that Erik Larson feels. I love the colors, and I can’t wait to try them on. I think the colors make them look fast. Feel free to send me a test pair as well

    I love this shoe. Light weight and just the right amount of cushioning. I will be racing in this shoe this year. Don’t change anything. The colors are great too, please keep them.
