I am very pleased with these shoes. Running and walking these shows provide ample stability and are very very light. Some light weight shoes I've tried do not offer nearly this much support and stability. I am going to buy another pair as a back-up.

Great shoe - love the roominess of the front. It is much more comfortable than my last shoe I plan on taking this to my first 5k this summer.

Everything about these fits my personal running style. The low weight, low heel rise, comfort and support. They are great. I use them for all my runs. I am currently training for a marathon. Have runs from 3-20 miles and these shoes do great on all of them. Light and fast but with enough cushion. Can't think of anything i don't like about them. I'm 6', 174, mid striker.

So far so great! Coming from Newton Sir Issac's these are a treat. Responsive comfortable and quiet. If you're a midfoot runner buy these shoes, you won't regret it.

Amazing shoe. If you buy into the natural stride theory, these shoes perfectly blend the minimalist shoe with a comfortable road shoe. Definitely promotes landing on the forefoot and after a 9 mile run my feet felt great. Super lightweight. Only issue I found is that I wear a size 9.5 in Asics, but need a 10 in these.

Great shoe. I have been wearing VFF's but was not happy running on pavement with them. These seem to be a great alternative so far. Very lightweight and breathe well.

Simply the best running shoe I've ever worn. Comfortable, responsive, super light and fast. I'm taking minutes off my best times in these. Fortunataly they suit my foot strike perfectly but they may take some getting used to if you're a heel striker. Can't recommend them highly enough. Superb!

Great minimalist shoes; however, they run half a size small. I'm 10.5 in Nike Free Run shoes, and bought these in the same size, but they are tight. An 11 would be a better fit.

I made a switch from the adidas adizero Aegis 2, and am very glad I did. Nagging knee paid disappeared, and my feet aren't at all tired after a 20 mile run. The shoes are breathable, flexible, and very comfortable. They are a good shoe for transitioning from a more conventional to a minimalist style. The shoe ran about a half size smaller than marked. The toe box is somewhat tight, but may have been mostly to the fit being about a half-size too small.

Nicely built, comfortable shoe, but too cushioned for me. I'm officially a size 8 but that felt too narrow for me so I tried and 8.5 and it fit perfectly. The minimal heel stack 4mm on these felt really good, and they were really comfortable, but the sole is well cushioned and I like something a little firmer, especially for tempo runs. This shoe would be good for someone just starting to try running with a midfoot strike or someone just looking for a nice comfy shoe.

Impressed with the updated model. The upper seems more durable than the last version. This is a great lightweight shoe.

These are excellent running shoes! This is my 1st pair of the Kinvara 2 Model. They are my 6th pair of Saucony Kinvaras if you count the previous 5 previous pairs of the original Kinvara model that I previously bought and wore. Of those 5 pairs I averaged getting between 260 to 280 miles for each pair that I've worn. These running shoes have a great groove! They are a great running shoe.

My 7th grader pronounced these "fresh ta deth" and was thrilled they came so fast. But disappointed that they really do run small. He recently has been wearing size 7.5, and due to the other reviews decided to order size 8. We are returning them to get a size 8.5, and hopefully he won't grow out of them in less than 3 months.

I really love these shoes. They fit perfectly and offer just the right amount of cushioning. Tried many shoes in the last 13 years and these are the best for me. My other shoes are bare foot runners for Crossfit and the Sauconys are a perfect blend of minimal and cushion.

NO need to break in. Phenomenal out the box! Best running shoes I've ever owned. My only wish might be for other color patterns, but the current ones are fine.

Well, I just found the shoes that I want to die in. I've tried Mizunos and Brooks and thought they were ok, but these Saucony’s make sweet love to my feet. Good for any length of run, when I get done, it's like my feet look at me and ask, "Ok, captain, when are we gonna do this thing? We’re ready to go down here." Love these shoes.

After wearing four pair of these myself...so many great colors...I talked my husband into trying them. After all, it's Zappos...they can easily go back! He knows that from my vast experience, the Zappos boxes arriving...not so much going back! As I do, he loved them. Lightweight, comfortable, great fit but yet enough support. Saucony brand is now our favorite for athletic shoes and he wears his for daily wear, too.
