These shoes are a great update to the Ride 4. The change in the heel to toe offset is comfortable and makes my stride feel more natural. They are extremely comfortable as I did an easy 3-mile run on the treadmill in them today. I love the bright pink and neon green. An excellent and supportive running shoe!

I dislike the redesign; The laces are too thin and bite. The lowered heel feels awkward. The general shape of the shoes no longer feel "right." These are very disappointing.

I love these shoes! I've been a hurricane pro grid fan for about 5 years, but decided to give these a whirl. I love love love these running shoes! I have terrible knees and since running with these, I have had little knee pain. They're also super cute! I do about 15 miles a week and these have been great. Just ordered another pair for my first half marathon!

I am so happy! The ride is back! This is easily the best Ride since the Ride 1 or 2...they were both favorites of mine for everyday running comfort, excellent cushioning and lightweight feel.

Very different from the rides 4 and 3. I have run in the Ride for about 4 years, and I have now switched to a different shoe because of the new model feels. The shoe itself is more shallow than the others before it, making it feel like my heel is going to slide out of the shoe whenever I take a step. Was very bummed about the new model, but went to the shoe store and they got me fitted into the Mizuno Wave Rider 15, which feels very close to the way the Saucony Ride 4 felt.

My daughter is the runner 14 years of age. Just history - 1600m (4:57), 800m (2:20), 400m(:56). We have wore several other brands. They have caused shin splints, issues with ankle support. We went to a recommend store in the Houston, TX. She tried on 7 different brands. The Saucony ProGrid was her favorite by far. She has been running in them for a month now and no issues on and off the track. It gives her the arch support she needs but also gives her the ability to work on her speed. She is working on her way to the top.
