Fast But Blisters

I've really enjoyed the 'pop' and overall speed of my new shoes. Only real complaint is that the heel lip gave me blisters on both feet (along my lower achilles on a 10km run a few days ago. It doesn't seem well suited to shorter socks. Not sure if this can be eliminated in future versions of the shoe.

I have been very pleased with the performance of the shoes.

Best In Show!

Best running shoes I’ve ever had! Perfect balance (literally) of bounce and stability. I also train for hybrid races (DEKA FIT/STRONG/MILE) and they are amazing for all the zone work as well. This will NOT be my last pair! And the black and neon colorway is amazing!

Hands-down, these are the best running shoes I’ve owned. I pretty much have every color they make

Did Gillette Design The Heels?

These shoes are great in the forefoot, and I like the cushioning and spring. The heel however is brutal. Maybe Saucony should start making razor blades. I've done 10 miles in them in total, split up into two sessions, and the last one I just had to stop running and walk carefully home. I tried using Compeeds, but the heel still protrudes. Do the even test these shoes on human feet?

Baker 2 Vegas Players.

My go to for reading in the Las Vegas desert heat. The shoes are light, fast, and aggressive.

Balanced Race Day Shoe

The perfect half to full marathon shoe for me. Wonderfully cushioned, yet speed demons when they want to be. These shoes have that special magic of being a supportive race day shoe, while also giving me that quick turnover and pop I love from Saucony. Also great for those long marathon tempo training days. Bonus that the colorways are 🔥

Good But Not Great

Comfortable but inferior to Kinvara design. Rubs my foot at the tongue since it does not lace up. Carbon fiber shoe base is terrific like previous pro models. Please bring back Kinvara pro this is the best running shoe Saucony has ever designed

First Race Shoes

Ran in these shoes for my first half marathon and these felt amazing. Felt no PTT flare ups, these shoes carried me to the finish line!! Made my first race (first of many) feel amazing.

Perfect Race Day Shoe

I wore these for the Philly Half Marathon and they were great from start to finish. Super lightweight, responsive, and really helped me keep a strong pace throughout the race. The cushioning felt perfect — enough comfort for the distance but still very fast and springy. No issues with discomfort or hotspots, even over 13.1 miles. Definitely a top-tier racing shoe and I’d 100% use them again for my next race.

Love This Shoe

Ran my first half marathon these, felt super light yet supportive, which is rare for me because I need a lot of heel support! Great and versatile shoe for all forms of racing and training!

Favorite Shoes & Hot Pink!!

Got these shoes right before a half marathon and was nervous because they only had a few miles on them… they ended up performing so well and I had zero blisters or foot pain afterward! Obsessed with how bouncy they are. Felt like I was floating all 13.1!

Fast!

Loved this shoe for the Philly Love Run. Really responsive and fast. Helped me PR sure. Also got a lot of compliments on the pink color way.

Fast, Light, And Built To Race

I used them for a hard effort and they felt smooth, stable, and efficient the whole way. If you’re chasing PRs or want a true race shoe, these are elite.

Terrible Heel!

The heel is terrible. Got blisters after my first run. I’ve run in Endorphin Pros since the first edition. Might not be able to use these with the heel being so bad. Training for Boston and had to go back to my Endorphin Pro 4s with 350+ miles in them because the blisters good so bad. I also had to return the Endorphin Elite 2 as they were to squishy versus the Endorphin Elite 1. Was also a slower run. Not good
