Fantastic shoe
When my son bought Hoka’s checked into the brand for the quality of foot wear and support. The colors didn’t pop for me. At that price and investment want something I enjoy how it looks as much as feels.A couple years later my favorite brand creates a shoe that resembles the qualities of Hoka. That happens to advertise with a sale on Amazon. In a color that popped for me. Though gray the blue logo mark is perfect for what I prefer.Wore hiking without being broken in. Huge risk. Nope. Equipped with my shoe inserts required for my lack of arch and previous knee issues, made by the VA. I have been taking the brand Pure Glucosamine and chondroitin with manganese for the last year that has helped me knee issue brought on by the severe flat feet. Partnered with the shoe inserts have improved my knee joints, but the shoes have not helped no matter how many I’ve tried.My goal with this purchase was support for my knees, comfort, and color.The hike was a success. No knee pain after a few miles. On a scorcher of a day my feet were not sweaty. Though used powder and no socks zero friction on my foot anywhere. Super comfy show. No need to break in. The price was exceptional for the sale, but I’d of tried them at full price. The color is my favorite of all the options.I’ve bought this brand for years. The company story is a selling point for me. I’ve got experience in various styles Saucony sells. This particular shoe is my favorite.For the hike it was on a forged path around a lake. Not like the mountains of Mt Tammany on the east coast, but flat and some inclines on a firm surface. Making this a straight forward trek. There were some rocks but nothing like mountain hiking.Walking ability, arch support which I included with my inserts, and durability … zero pronation on either foot as these gave a solid surface gate.Kinda cloud like, in that these gave me a marshmallow vibe walking. Light. Airy. Exceptional experience.Hope Saucony continues to make this style shoe. Very happy with this purchase⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🏆

My Go-To Every Time
I absolutely love my Saucony running shoes! Every time I need a new pair, I just reorder the next version—they’ve never let me down. They're lightweight, look great, and most importantly, they strike the perfect balance of stability and cushioning without the bulky, oversized sole that many new designs have.I use them for Orangetheory, and they’re ideal for the workouts. I’ve noticed a lot of people struggle to get their shoes into the foot straps on the rowers, but these fit perfectly without any hassle. Comfortable, supportive, and functional—exactly what I need in a training shoe. Highly recommend!

Saucony for the win!
I absolutely love these Sauconys. I was looking for a running shoe that was around $100 since I'm just getting back into running and didn't want to splurge on Brooks, etc just yet.Cost, comfort, and brand value / transparency were big - I wanted to avoid going to some of the big brands known for sweat shop and unfair labor practices. So I tried and returned 2 pairs before receiving these.10/10. The material is a high-quality mesh overlay, so super breathable although I know my feet will get soaked in the rain - that's ok. The sole is very supportive throughout - toe box, midsole, and heel. The heel stack is high (I think ~1.75 inches) but the shoes fit so well that my feet feel secure and not like I'm about to roll an ankle.The last thing is that they're a bit big overall but not super heavy or clunky - no extended heel like the Dynablast & Novablast. Also no heel rubbing, tightness, or irritation. I wore them out of the box and into the gym - very little break-in needed.I also care less about style and having cool shoes, but I think these look great - you can wear with anything.

Terrific but don’t get caught in the rain or a mud puddle.
They are immediately comfortable. The mesh on the top of the shoe would allow anything liquid to make your feet wet. Wouldnt be good to wear in the rain. Insoles are wonderful. High arch and comfy heel support. Just what my tired feet needed.

Sauconys live up to the hype
Been awhile since I finally got around to trying Sauconys. I'll be honest, I've heard nothing but rave reviews, but a lot of them are expensive and honestly -- a little shallow -- but I hate the logo and design.First off, I got these cause (1) they were on sale and (2) I feel like the scheme and colors help the logo not stand out too much and honestly I think they look great.Secondly, they run great and I think I not only get why all my runner friends love Sauconys but also they're my favorite brand now. First I was an Adidas gal. But they keep completely revamping their lineup every few years, discontinuing old favorites, creating "successors" which have flaws that take a few iterations to iron out. Then Reebok's new Floatrides cause they're an amazing value. Then Brooks when I wanted to upgrade a bit nicer. Finally this.First off, the feel/quality of the material is top notch. That was the one downside of the Rebook's (great value, but uppers can feel a bit stiff/cheap). The bounce however feels more responsive than the Brooks Ghosts I used before (granted, not their most springy model, but I'm still solidly in daily trainers territory). It does feel slightly light on cushioning compared to super cushy shoes, but still a very comfy daily trainer and I think the slide trade-off for better pace on tempo days is worth it.Fit great for me. A little more snug in the toebox compared to some others I've used, but I tend to be wide there and not enough to cause discomfort. Just something I noticed. Took a little bit to break in, maybe 5-10ish miles, but that's not abnormal for a running shoe.

Good everyday use!
They are comfortable but definitely more for the everyday use and not at a competitive level!

Comfy shoe but don’t buy yellow
It’s a nice running shoe and the price is right but I wore them and it started raining and blue cloth underneath the yellow mesh bled through. Now they look like crap. I haven’t even worn them that much. Big disappointment. I’m not sure how I would clean them.
