These provide superb cushioning and responsiveness. They fit excellently with my full length orthotic. They are perfect for those who want to transition to a lower profile shoe while keeping some protection. There are no weak points to mention

Great shoe. I have run quite a few miles in them and love them. They have good cushion front and back without the negative drop. The best part is not negative drop.

I weigh 205 lbs. and run 20 -30 miles a week. Great cushioning. Took a little while to get used to the low heel height. Feels like a beefed up racer.

I've never been a runner/jogger, bought these to start. They are very comfortable, soft insole. They can be laced up fairly tight so there is no slipping when running. The mesh gives a lot of breathability, in cooler temps with a bit of a wind, my feet get a bit cool before I start working out in them. I wore these for 20+ miles and 12-1/2 hours, no blisters or sore spots, just sore feet overall. I'd recommend, very comfortable.

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.

The shoe is light and comfortable with plenty of toe room. The heel drop makes it perfect for long runs, especially for forefoot runners. You can run on heels without the discomfort of a minimalist shoe.

Excellent shoes, lightweight and stable. I am using them to help stabilize a bad ankle and they are working very well. I am able to take long walks again! I intentionally bought a large size so that they would fit over an Ace bandage wrap and leave room for an orthotic. Then I had a full-length lift added to the right shoe, and both soles replaced with Vibram. That added a lot to the price, but now they are perfect for me.

Being a runner for three years and having flat feet, it is hard for me to find a shoe that I really like. I found that shoe in the Cortana. My lower calves were sore for about two weeks, but once they got used to the 4mm heel drop it was like running on a cloud. My shin splints went away, my knee pain went away. These shoes are awesome. One thing to remember, however, is that they are minimal shoes so they will only last about 200 - 250 miles.
