I am a woman with size 11 feet, so I am always on the lookout for shoes that don\\\'t make my feet look any larger. Because there is not a lot of extra padding on these shoes, they hug my feet and look great. On the flip side, the minimal padding means that I can feel every bump and crack on the sidewalk underneath my feet, and after a long day I\\\'d rather be in supportive sneakers. But they are a happy medium between shoes that are 100% comfortable and shoes that fit the business casual dress code. I can even get away with teaching in them.

Comfortable and cute! Wore these to Austin City Limits Music festival and they were awesome for lots of standing and walking; and, though they got very muddy, washed easily!

Bought the Saucony Originals Bullet in gray with yellow details. I got them specifically for my 6 day NYC trip. Let me say that they are the perfect walking shoe. They are so light, which I love. They're so comfortable with pretty good traction. I walked around everyday for 6 days in NYC without my feet hurting. Of course, the bottom of my feet was sore, but that's to be expected no matter what shoe you wear. If you're on your feet all day walking, that's a lot of pressure being applied to the bottom of your feet. I usually wear a size 7 and occasionally a 7.5. I went with the 7.5 and the fit was perfect. If you're between sizes, I recommend going with the bigger size as I believe these shoes run a half size small. If you're going on a trip and plan on doing a lot of walking, I highly recommend these. They look great with skinny jeans because they're not bulky like most sneakers.

Very comfortable and flexible shoes. They fit so snugly and look really cool. They come with 2 pairs of shoelaces, one of each color of the sneaker itself. I use my red one and they look great! One thing though, they run very slightly towards the smaller size. I'm a 6 and I think a 6 1/2 would probably have been better.

I love these! It is my second pair. My first ones have held up for over a year and I wear them daily. They have great arch support which is why I think they are so great. I would buy a half size bigger than you would wear in a dress shoe, just like any athletic shoe, they fit tighter than dress shoes.

Additional Brand Information

In 1977, after many long years being kept a close secret, Saucony men’s shoes and Saucony women’s shoes were recognized by a small group of serious runners and received an award given by a US magazine. Years of innovation and technical enhancements have allowed Saucony shoes and Saucony clothes to garner a reputation for high quality. Yet Saucony men’s and women’s shoes expand well beyond their running heritage. Saucony Originals take you where you are headed without forgetting where you came from.

Four years later, the Saucony Jazz O was launched and today is the most beloved of all Saucony Originals and lays the foundation for the Saucony men’s and Saucony women’s Originals collection.

As Saucony running shoes move forward and continue to be depended upon for their leading technical advancements, there is a renewed dedication to the retro fashion category that is Saucony men’s Originals and Saucony women’s Originals. The Jazz O is the centerpiece but it is flanked by classic Saucony shoes from the Courageous to the Shadow 6000 that together have played a significant role in the history of Saucony men’s Originals and Saucony women’s Originals. Experimenting with colors, textures and materials yields new looks and choices but Saucony Originals’ lines remain classic.

Saucony men’s Originals and Saucony women’s Originals are for those of us who don’t want the same shoe everyone else has. Zappos.com and Saucony Originals can take you anywhere – whether you are chasing after a cab, walking ten blocks after last call or simply straddling a few decades.

I love these shoes, even more than I thought I would. They are butterscotch-y colored. I have worn them to bits already. They are very slim, and glove-y, and fitted. These are a solid walking shoe, they are not for running, for walking they are ridiculous comfy. If I could afford more, I'd buy several. I bought another cheapy pair of Asics that week and I haven't worn those more than once.

I ordered 2 sizes: a 5 and 5 1/2, as I wasn't sure of fit. The 5 is great and my daughter took the 5 1/2. We purchased the charcoal with yellow trim and love them. Trendy, comfortable, look great with jeans. I love Zappos and the great service.

These shoes are fantastic! The soles are thin, so if you are looking for supportive shoes for a long day of walking, you might not want these. However, I find it them very comfortable. Indeed, I had to buy another pair!

I bought the black and green ones. They are super comfortable and work really well for my narrow feet. I think someone without narrow feet might actually have trouble wearing these things. They are really cute and look great with skinny jeans.

Very nice. Just got these yesterday, and I've worn them all day today. They are super light! There's not much padding or anything towards the front of the shoe, so I can feel the ground when I walk. I'm normally a size 9.5, and I ordered them in 9.5 and there is still a little extra room. These shoes are pretty much perfect. I love them!

Reviewer: Alexandra from Chicago
Overall: (5 Stars) Comfort: (5 Stars) Style: (5 Stars)
These are best sport shoes I\'ve had in the last 10 years, and I am not exaggerating. I\'ve bought shoes that were twice as expensive, that were recommended and fitted to my foot by specialists in the athletic show stores, and all these Nikes, Adidas and Pumas are gathering dust in my closet. I am walking on air in my trendy Saucony, and I have just ordered a second pair.\r\n\r\nNote these are not meant for serious running, they don\'t have enough support for that. But at 6 oz weight they are wonderful for walking, machine and weight indoor training, aerobics, and for walking on lake front looking cool. I walk 5-6 miles a day in them from the day One. I highly recommend Saucony Bullet, buy half a size up.

Purchased this b/c I wanted a closed shoe that would be light and stylish for summer; this fit the bill perfectly. It wears like a glove and, like all Saucony shoes (the reason I keep buying them), the insert is removable. I have special orthotics. I like the modern color combinations, and would easily buy another pair if I could afford it. It's one of those shoes that wears easily, you can stay in it the whole day the first day.

The shoe is a true size (for 8.5) I love the style and the fact that it is extremely lightweight, with a very flexible sole. It has a comfortable arch support. My original purpose in buying was to wear the shoe for tai chi, which has worked very well. Floor contact is good, and the sole is soft enough to allow the foot to roll. It felt so good; I had to buy another pair for street wear. I'm waiting to see what colors arrive next!

These shoes are wonderful. I ordered them for a trip to Europe, where I would be doing a lot of walking and activity (And let’s face it, your basic flats or Chuck Taylor's won't cut it for arch support or long-lasting comfort). I love how they look (and apparently, so do other people). I like how light they are. They are close-fitting & allow movement, and are just darn good looking. The sole near the toes is relatively thin, which means you can feel what you're walking on (I kind of like this, personally). I would recommend ordering a half size UP. I would not recommend them as serious* running shoes. Definitely a great pair of sneaks though. Get them.

Overall, a pretty little lightweight shoe. I have a narrow foot so the width was good, but there wasn't quite enough cushion for them to be comfortable when running, especially near the toes. Also, the rubber on the bottom squeaks like crazy on linoleum floors.

Just perfect! I wanted a pair of shoes that are casual and yet I can wear them to work on days when I wear slacks. I really want a pair of original Saucony's but couldn't find a color in my size that would look good for work. These are just perfect but I certainly would not wear them for walking as I would the originals.

Awesome Shoes - I would recommend these to everyone! They are so cute, fun, and it's hard to find them at the mall...so use Zappos...they have the best shoes. I got an 8.5 in these, I usually wear an 8 in the Jazz Saucony's, but these are a little smaller. Great shoe!

Comfortable and light - A very light shoe that fits closely. I think the sizes run a bit small... I ordered this with another brand of tennis shoe in the same size and this one fit much more snugly, but I think it works for this style. People complaining about the rubbing issues may be wearing one too large since it's supposed to fit the foot like a glove. I didn't give it 5 on the look because the colors on mine looked a bit different than the picture online and not exactly what I expected, but in general, good.

Great Shoes! Super comfortable, true fit shoes. These shoes are very light weight and compact, yet the foot support is not compromised. Great shoe for traveling. I have received a lot of compliments when wearing these shoes.

Great sneakers - Little cushion under the ball of the foot. Otherwise I love them. They are still comfortable, even with little cushioning! I get compliments on them all the time.
