Brooks Launch 12 Runner Black/ Grey/ White (Women's)

Experience explosive speed without breaking the bank. The Brooks Launch 12 returns with targeted updates designed to give runners a snappy, connected-to-the-ground feel. Perfectly positioned as a lightweight, no-nonsense neutral trainer, this shoe excels on tempo days, track workouts, and everyday miles where you want to feel fast and agile.

The most significant upgrade to the Launch 12 lies in its innovative split-midsole design. Brooks has integrated their premium, nitrogen-infused foam—utilizing DNA FLASH v1 in the heel for impact absorption and the even more responsive DNA FLASH v2 in the forefoot. This dual-density setup delivers an incredibly energetic toe-off, giving your stride an explosive pop off the pavement while remaining perfectly balanced for daily efforts.

Up top, the shoe features a newly refined, ultra-lightweight airy mesh upper made with over 55% recycled materials. This engineered mesh provides superior breathability and a locked-in, secure fit through the midfoot without feeling restrictive. Underneath, a durable RoadTack rubber outsole with a classic flex-groove geometry ensures reliable grip and smooth heel-to-toe transitions. Whether you are hunting for a new PR or just want a sleek, responsive shoe that doubles easily for casual lifestyle wear, the Brooks Launch 12 delivers premium performance at an unbeatable value.
