Zappos is the best place to get shoes. Great prices in all sizes and colors. Product was great and was delivered within two days of placing the order. Will continue to use Zappos for my shopping needs.

Love these. I'm not a serious runner any means. I mainly buy these to ease the strain on my feet and legs during long walks and for just general wear. They have a nicely cushioned yet supportive feel and are very lightweight. They look very cool too; a plain, retro sort of styling unlike most athletic shoes, which I honestly think are really hideous. They run a little small though, so something to keep in mind if your foot is exact to any one size. I'm a weird in between size, so going to the larger one always works in my favor on any pair of shoes. As far as durability, my older pair is still in service, but wore somewhat quickly with daily use. So if you are buying these for daily use it might be something to consider, but for the price and the comfort I wouldn't let it get in the way of owning a pair. They're great.

I\'ve had these shoes for a month now and they are fantastic! There is a sufficient amount of arch support and the overall comfort level is superb. The sizes can be a bit misleading, as I had to go up 1/2 a size to get a proper fit, but Zappos took care of the exchange flawlessly. Overall these shoes are stylish and comfortable!

They are a comfy, pretty durable unless you walk through things you would need a boot for, good traction and decent price you honestly get what you pay for unlike other shoes. Gellin insoles are a nice final touch.

I have been an internet customer of Zappos for about 2 years and I am completely satisfied with the results. The shipping is amazingly fast and of course free. These Saucony shoes always surpass expecations, people seem to like the retro look and excellent comfort. I have made it a point to tell everyone I know about my experiences with Zappos. Thank you Zappos, I will be back again!

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 bought it for my 8th grader son for the school year. So far he is thrilled with his sneakers. He is notoriously hard to shop for, refuses to set foot in any store. So it is endless process of shopping on my own, bringing it home and returning. But this Saucony, he claimed it was like walking on clouds, no pinching anywhere.

I've owned several pairs of these and I've also owned a few other Saucony products as well. This is by far the best one I've ever owned. Comfortable from the moment you put it on. I have a little wider foot, so I have to go a half to whole size longer. This doesn't cause any problems; my favorite shoes I've ever owned.

Let me tell y'all! I ordered these shoes and the very next day the UPS truck pulled by, I got a knock at my doorstep and there they were. These shoes are the most comfortable feeling shoes I have ever worn! You will not be disappointed.

I am a woman, and I normally wear an 8.5 wide. I love the look of the Saucony Jazz, but they don\'t offer a wide in their women\'s styles. So I bought a pair of these men\'s Jazz, size 7. They are a perfect fit, and the D width is just right. They are very cushiony with just enough support for me. The perfect walking shoe! I ordered them on a Monday evening, and received them on Wednesday morning!

I tried Saucony in 2007 and I wore them on a European trip. My feet never hurt and they were very comfortable the whole long day on tours. They keep me from walking on the outside of my heel.\r\n \r\nI bought a gift pair for my son and he loves them. I thought he would be comfortable since he has similar problems with his feet like I do. I have recommended them to everyone who has never tried them. By the way, I tried them due to your reviews because I didn\'t know what to try besides Easy Spirit. I love Saucony Originals.

I purchased these shoes for someone who is on his feet at work almost all the time. He has been wearing them every day and says they are lightweight and very comfortable. I want to add that the service from Zappos is wonderful. I ordered these shoes one evening, and the shoes arrived the next afternoon.

Saucony Originals Jazz are pretty much like wearing house slippers. I love them. These are my 6th pair, 8th pair for the household as my husband and I swap shoes. One benefit of wearing the same shoe size. Comfy, squishy. Great w/ or w/o socks.\r\n\r\n

I bought these specifically for a 10-day trip to Tokyo where I knew I'd be walking like crazy. I hate crazy looking modern sneakers but wanted something to make sure I could keep going on the trip. The Saucony's fit the bill. I love the vintage looks and they're incredibly comfortable. It's like wearing cotton balls on your feet. They are very light, lots of spring. They don't have a ton of arch support, but you don't really notice as it's like walking on air. They held up great, which even ended up including some light hiking. They still look almost new despite the pounding they took. These will be my go to walking sneaker from now on, and for the price, they can't be beat.

Love these shoes. Love the color combination. I bought these for my son at his request. These are his second pair of Sauconys. I've owned about 15 and he wanted some like his mom. Now I want some of these, but not until he outgrows his.

I use my shoes for biking and running, as well as just hanging out. Very comfortable and light shoes. Nothing too special about them, but super comfy.

These are nice, comfortable shoes. They are great if you use orthotics. Your orthotics slip nicely under the included insert. Unfortunately, this made an obnoxious squeaking noise for about the first week or two due to the rubber under the insert rubbing on my orthotics, but things seem to have cooled down now. My only complaint is that the shoe itself does not provide quite as much lateral support as I need for my pronating feet. But they look good!

I have bought several pairs of these shoes over the past 4 years. They are extremely comfortable, lots of support, and are my go-to shoes for running. I have never been loyal to a shoe or shoe brand until I bought a pair of Jazz's.

Even after I stopped competitive athletics finding a all around economical training shoe was a problem. I\'ve had Nike, K-Swiss, Adidas, while with teams. In my senior at college in L.A.CA I only had a small budget to work with, but I enjoyed running track on the schools dirt field and wind sprints on their soccer field grass. I also needed something that could be thrown in the laundry machine and dry out quickly since it was my only pair. I found a pair of these black on black Saucony on sale (they only size 13 left) for $36.00! That was in 1991. I ran on average of 3 miles a day for days a week, and weight trained in them for the next five years. They were comfortable, light weight, simple, and durable. A totally underrated shoe by all accounts. After they wore out I finally went back to the sporting good store to buy another pair. They didn\'t carry this model anymore. I succumbed to NB trail shoes and have been wearing them since, but I\'m going back to this model since you carry. And since they are so economical why not get a variety of colors!
