Love these shoes! These are not only super cute (I have the pink ones), but some of the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. They have excellent traction, and are perfect for my Zumba classes or even a casual night out with friends. I want them in every color!

I love these shoes. They're so comfortable and fit perfectly. I live in the city, so I do a lot of walking with my dog, and these are perfect!

This is a great sneaker! Really supportive, especially in the arches. I'm an 8-8 1/2 size and I got an 8 with this shoe and it fit perfect! Great if you work on your feet.

I love these shoes! I have slightly wider foot and normally wear a 6.5 and when those came they were a little too tight across my toes. Once I got the size 7s they were perfect. I can't wait to get another pair in another color.

Fit is good, shoe is comfortable and good for my three-mile daily walk. However, as you can see, shoes are not pink (per description), or red or orange. I'm not sure what one would call this color. It's not bad, but it's not pink.

As always, the service is fantastic. I have to agree with other reviewers that these are not the same quality and comfort level as the ones I purchased around 10 years ago. They just don't have that new sneaker bounce that makes you want to run. I was super excited to get a new pair and now I am a bit disappointed. However, they are super cute. If you are looking for a moderately comfortable shoe that is good for kicking around in, this is your shoe. If you are looking for something a bit more versatile i.e. light running, jogging or hiking, this is probably not the right shoe for you. I usually wear between a 5 1/2 and a 6. I went lower based on other reviews and they fit great and they do make you a solid inch taller.

I have been wearing the Saucony Jazz original since 2002! I've probably bought close to 20 pairs of this shoe in my lifetime. Saucony decided to not only limit the colors of this sneaker to boring black and navy but they changed the sizing and made this sneaker narrow and small. I can no longer fit my orthotic as I have all the other years. The newer version of this sneaker is not made as well and provides much less support. This is so disappointing.

I don't know what happened to my beloved shoe.......I have owned at least three pairs of the Jazz Original in my life. THERE IS NO CUSHIONING IN THE SHOE LIKE IN YEARS PAST. I purchased these because I had doubts about all the other shoes I have been looking at for months. I've worn these before and these are AWFUL. No flexibility or anything. I did in fact size up a half size because reviews indicate that they ran a half size small (I don't recall doing that in the past) but I did this time and even with thicker socks for the winter months it was still too large. NO CUSHIONING. Maybe the pair I received was just a "flook?" So disappointed. I'm returning them.

These are not the Saucony Originals of the past. I have purchased several Shadow and low pro jazz in the last several years and loved them. These feel cheap and are not comfortable. Runs small too.

I’m confused... I have been wearing Saucony Jazz in the exact same size for twenty plus years. I ordered a new pair and while they are the exact same style and size, they do not fit. ... might be (hopefully) a one-off???
Not sure what changed but beware!

THESE SHOES HAVE CHANGED. I used to live how much cushion these shoes have for waitressing and being on my feet for many hours at a time. The pair I just received is drastically different than the pair my daughter has. It is like a hard block of foam now. Very uncomfortable. I am so disappointed with this purchase and sad that I no longer have a go-to shoe.

Love love love these shoes. I am short so I appreciate the extra height. I got the black with silver accent and it is perfect. Goes with jeans or leggings. Waiting for a re-stock of some bright colors, they are out of my size at the moment and the saucony website only has neutrals.

I love these shoes. They aren't as comfortable when you first where them in but after they are broke in they are comfortable. They are just great casual shoes.

I love wearing Saucony Originals I've purchased many in the past. I love how comfortable they are, the look is stylish. but the pair I just purchased did run a half size smaller. So I suggest you do a half size larger unless you really have narrow feet.

I have been wearing these shoes constantly for a couple of years; they're so comfortable and you can't beat the price for the quality. Both pairs I recently ordered were small, so at this point I'd recommend sizing up at least a half size. Weird because in the past they've been true to size!

I ordered this a touch bigger to accommodate my orthotics. These shoes and my orthos are a dream team! The shoes themselves are cool looking and have a nice cushioned sole - I'll bet I would have loved them without my orthotics too.

I'm a size 8 in the Saucony Jazz Low Pro, but for the Jazz Originals I needed to size up to an 8.5. I live in a city so I walk a lot and take public transit, but these are super comfortable and I can wear them all day with ease. They're also incredibly lightweight and look good with everything - easy pick for an everyday shoe.

Very cute shoes! I purchased these as an alternative to wearing running shoes with jeans. They are comfortable. I found the insole that comes with them to be rather hard as replaced it with a gel insole, much more comfortable that way.

I love these shoes! I work on my feet 8-10hrs/day and my feet never feel fatigued @ the end of the day. I have had so many pairs of the Saucony Originals and I must admit I strayed for a minute but I always come back to these shoes. They are extremely compfortable, very cute, come in many colors, and make my size 9 tootsies look tiny! I also love getting my shoes from Zappos. They have all the info you could ask for, returns are quick and easy, and best of all they ship so fast I don't have time to get antsy waiting for my purchase. Zappos and Saucony is a match made in shoe heaven!
