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.

Great shoes! Have owned several pair of Kinvara's, Kinvara 2's and now a pair of the 3's. Seems like a bit more durable toe box area and Saucony did make the toe box larger. My only complaint for my Kinvara and Kinvara 2's was the narrow toe box and eventual ripping that would occur around my pinky toe. I wore these right out of the box for a half marathon and now have around two hundreds miles on them. The soles are holding up well and the shoes are very comfortable.

Great running shoe! I can feel the breeze in my feet while running! I'm flat footed and they are fine for me at 5 - 10 miles at 8-9 mins/mile pace.

I bought the Kinvara 3 for my daily runs and I am very glad that I did. I have the Black/Citron/Red and they look better in person than in the pictures. They are very cool looking shoes. They have a great fit, flexibility, cushioning, and stability. They are so lightweight that I barely feel them on my feet and I am less tired when my run is over. My toes have ample room to move around in the toe box where other shoes would give me blisters on occasion. The only thing that concerns me is the minimal rubber on the bottom of the shoes, but so far no problems in the three weeks that I have worn them. As always Zappos offered a great price and unbeatable service. These were my first minimalist shoes and I will definitely be buying another pair of these to use in my rotation.

Forefoot is a bit wider than the K2's, otherwise the same fit and comfort. The material on the top is more flexible, hopefully that will resolve the cracking issue. A very comfortable shoe, looking forward to the K3 trail as this one has minimal grip on the trails I run on here.

I was a big fan of the Kinvara 1, but the 2 just seemed a little too snug in the toe box area. So I was nervous that the 3 would be also be like this, but I was so happy to find that it's much improved. I still bought the same size as the 1 and the 2, but it just fits so much better. There's room for my toes to move but it's not sloppy at all. Big fan of the update!
