Thanks! We'll notify you as soon as we add new styles for Saucony.
In 1977, after many long years being kept a close secret, Saucony® men's shoes and women's shoes were recognized by a small group of serious runners and received an award given by a US magazine. Stemming from that day, Saucony® shoes and clothing have built a reputation for high quality and innovative technical performance for which it is known today.

Four years later, the Saucony® Jazz O, the most popular Saucony (now Saucony® Original) shoe to be made, was launched and in 1991, offered a midsole comprising both cushioning and stability-GRID® resulting in men's and women's shoes that delivered a superior ride.

At Saucony®, they exist for runners. Runners inspire them, bringing new ideas and force the Saucony® brand to be better inside and out. They are the inspiration behind the design and engineering of Saucony's best-made products. Runners keep them competitive, hungry and driven but mostly, honest.

Whether in a conference room, or out on a lunchtime run, Saucony® employees are constantly talking about and arguing about their running clothing, shoes and accessories. They are passionate about their products and run in every product they make. This focus and passion fuels them to create the best Saucony® running pieces on the planet. And they keep an eye toward the future when producing Saucony® kid's shoes. Doing so allows them to come to work each day knowing they've done everything to make runner's lives, regardless of age, just a little bit better.

At Saucony®, a good day is when they get to run. A great day is when they inspire someone else to run.

Love this shoe - colors are great and it is very lightweight and comfy - no "break-in" needed. Size was a bit small. I normally wear a 7 in an athletic shoe and have a somewhat narrow foot. Had to return it for the 7.5 and it is not long at all.

These where the First pair of Saucony shoes that I have owned. At first I thought they where the most comfortable, light weight shoes, however they fell apart after two months. The sole came off the bottom of the shoes. I think a good pair of running shoes should last longer then two months. I was not very impressed with the quality and will not be buying another pair of Saucony's.

I just returned my pair of Saucony Grid Type A5 to Zappos. Naturally with Zappos--no problem. I am so surprised at these Saucony shoes. Typically, Saucony is simply the only fitness shoe I ever purchase. This particular pair, however, had no support whatsoever, no heel height for any protection from impact, ran way too small ; all it had were really cute colors.

Great shoe but I needed to exchange for half size larger. I've worn Saucony's for years using my custom orthotics but required larger size in this style

I'd also recommend: New Balance

First I exchanged this shoe for a half size larger and then had to exchange again for a full size larger. Usually I can count on Saucony to fit well with my usual size. I love the lightweight but so little support, but I use them for walking, not running.
