I loved the way these shoes looked at first, but they very quickly deteriorated. The quality is just not there, and after only a few months of wear, the fabric started falling apart on the toe and sides. I'm admittedly tough on shoes (I use a standing desk and tend to wear my newest pair every day), but I've never had another pair of shoes fall apart so quickly. If they can't make vegan shoes that are at least similar in durability to their non-vegan options, Saucony just shouldn't sell them.

Looked and fit nice but the insole lining came unglued after wearing only a few times.

I am going to return them as soon as possible. I love the design and color, but upon opening I noticed that the shoe was dirty and worn. I also found a lot of hair inside the shoes which was extremely weird. It's probably best to order from the original saucony website. I would not recommend buying this product on this platform.

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)

These shoes wore out quickly for me. Specifically the upper portion where the mesh is above the toes and the rear sole area. If you plan on doing a good bit of walking in these they may not be your best choice. For light use or casual wear they would probably hold up better.

Poor quality. I've had a few pairs of Saucony Originals Jazz Low Pro Vegan sneakers and I don't know if I received a defective pair but the die started to bleed immediately and the mesh tore on both toe boxes. Previous pairs lasted over a year, this pair barely a month.

The shoes look and feel great on my feet, but the sole on one of the shoes started to come apart, even though they had not been used very much (no running, no extreme hikes - I just use them to walk around the neighborhood). I do not abuse my footwear, so this was very disappointing.

I love Saucony's and they are my go to for sneakers. I bought these and within a month (and only wearing them a few times) a hole above the big toe formed. I was so disappointed. I have not bought another Saucony since and I debate buying them again because if I am going to spend this much on something I want to get at least 6 months out of it.

Overall, I thought that this shoes were pretty good. Looked/felt great. However, I've had them for just over 6 months now and they are completely falling apart. the sole is peeling away from the upper at the heel and the toe box is becoming frayed. Not really what I would have hoped for from a pair of shoes- no matter the materials or cost.

I'm very bitter that Saucony discontinued the Bullet Vegan line because they were much more attractive, comfortable and cool than these Jazz Low Pro Vegan shoes. I like the low profile of the Bullet Vegan shoes. I used to get tons of compliments on them. These are dorky looking. They also make your feet look huge. I wish I had sent them back because I never wear them.

I really like this brand and the jazz sneakers are pretty much all I buy. Unfortunately the vegan ones that I have had for about three months and the tops of the shoes have several holes. They are my everyday shoes so I get that they will not last forever but this is the first pair of Sauconys to fall apart this quickly. I recommend these sneakers for comfort and style but I will stick with non vegan from now on.

I wore these three times. They started out a bit rigid and uncomfortable but broke in fairly well. The third time I got caught out in the rain with them and the blue dye bled all over the white canvas parts and my socks. So now they're ruined. I typically like Sauconys but wouldn't recommend getting the vegan ones unless you're prepared to keep them away from water at all costs.

I burn through shoes like crazy, but these shoes started falling apart in a couple of months. Hemp just does not hold up like cotton and synthetics. My big toe is sticking out of the top of both of them (I usually blow out the heel of a shoe). The rest of the shoe is holding up surprisingly well though. They also have a waffle stomper sole pattern that is great for tracking in mud around the house.

I love these shoes - I've bought 3 pairs in the last year. Unfortunately, they keep wearing out because there's no re-enforcement of the fabric near the toe. I consistently wear a hole in the top of the shoe within just a few months. My last pair lasted just two months. They're pretty inexpensive, but at that rate, it's quite expensive. Time to find another option. It's a shame, because if they would just extend the toe re-enforcement back another 1/2" or so, these would be awesome shoes (hint hint, Saucony).

These shoes look good, but I found that the overall quality is quite low. They feel very cheap and the fit is nowhere near what I usually expect from Saucony. The arch area doesn't wrap the foot nearly enough, so they bulge out and look funky and the toe area feels way too narrow.

Read in another review they sized the same as the New Balances. Untrue. My size 9 NB's fit perfect while these 9's are a little too long and narrow and just feel strange in comparison.

These shoes look super good, and they are super comfortable. Yet, they wear out very quickly. I bought a pair that did not last a year, then I bought another that did not last a year. Guess what? I'm moving on to another shoe. If part of being vegan is environmental sustainability, I'm not doing the earth any favors by buying these.

I was really excited about these shoes at first. I had finally found a stylish vegan casual shoe, something that I had been in search of for awhile. Lo and behold, they really do not hold up. The canvas on one of the shoes is already starting to separate from the sole. Apart from that, the insoles are not glued in! Every time I remove my foot from either shoe, the insole scrunches up. This is very annoying. Apart from durability, something that I have also noticed is that the canvas easily stains. I have been walking around in the snow quite a bit and the shoes always end up with water and salt marks. Overall, pretty disappointed with these.

These shoes look VERY nice and are VERY comfortable! However, a pair of mine was intact for nearly 3 months of simple urban walking. Then I noticed that the sole on one shoe has slightly separated from the rest of the shoe in the heel area. Over time the gap has grown pretty much, and the story repeated with the second shoe. I did not wear them for several months now as they're not suitable for cold weather, but I anticipate them to break down completely the next summer. Another bad thing that they are claimed to be made of natural materials ("Canvas and hemp create the classic design"). In realty they are made of synthetic nylon fiber.

I have had a heartbreaking relationship with these sneakers. They are incredibly comfortable & when new, really nice. But they SHRED so quickly that they have a very short life and get embarrassingly shabby within an unacceptably short period of time. Measured in weeks, not months. I will probably give in and buy another pair but wear them only while working at home or something. I do wish they would get some kind of design upgrade, perhaps more rubber on the uppers or some other materials.

These are extremely comfortable shoes. They look great out of the box. But! Mine have worn out after less than 3 months of casual wear. The canvas on the toe of the shoe has torn without any good reason. They also have discolored very quickly, going from a pleasant light blue to dirty gray. SO... I can't recommend them due to durability problems.

now that i've had them for 3 months, I can say they aren't durable. the toe section on both shoes started tearing through in the upper. I glued a piece of rubber inside to prevent my toe from poking through, and used a sharpie to color in the fraid material. dumb that i should have to do that with new shoes. never happened to me before.

I wanted these shoes right when I saw them. All of the Jazz Series look good but the Vegan in particular stand out because of the Denim/Rough Khaki material used all throughout. They comes with 2 color laces and very earth color tones. Awesome. So obviously they look great but they have 2 major downfalls. One is they provide VERY LITTLE cushioning. If this is important to you, look for the Jazz Original at the least I'd say as they look much beefier. The 2nd and more important complaint is that they provide almost NO ventilation for your feet. You can get by okay if you wear ventilated sports socks (Adidas for example) but if you wear thicker long socks that most people would usually wear during Autumn or Winter? Say hello to stinky feet. My feet almost never smell but when they are stuck in a Sauna for 10 hours, they start to sweat and die a little.

I've owned two pairs of the Jazz Vegan shoes. Unfortunately the first pair wore out in the corners of the toe within 2 months. Saucony replaced the pair and the new pair wore out in the exact same fashion. I like Saucony, but these shoes seem to have a defect in them, or they're just not meant to survive long.

These shoes look as good in person as they do in the pictures, and I've gotten a lot of compliments on them! They seem well built, and have ridiculously good traction wet or dry. But there's a lot wrong with them. The two colored laces look cool in the photos, but I can't make sense of them in practice. The lower and upper laces are the same length, meaning that when you lace them up as shown, the leftover ends are drastically different lengths. So you can't tie them together in one knot, and even if tying the two laces separately and having two knots on each shoe didn't take twice as long and look lame, the top laces are so long you end up stepping on them. On the other hand, the laces are almost too short to go all the way up with one color, though they've stretched in the two weeks I've owned them and I'm getting used to tying tiny knots. I can't figure out what Saucony was expecting we'd do with double laces, but if you feel like re-stringing them occasionally, I guess you can use one color as a spare set. I suspect Saucony has changed insoles since the other reviews and the product description were written. There's little arch support, and the included insoles are quite hard and don't yield at all to the shape of your foot. There is no cushioning in this shoe! The fit mostly feels accurate, except that my heels slide around a lot as I walk, which is unbelievably irritating. It feels like I'm stepping off the side of the sole if I'm not on perfectly level ground. These are not walking shoes, much less "retro runners" as described, and anyone who gets around mainly on foot, or stands a lot during the course of the day, should avoid them. This week I walked a couple of miles two days in a row. At the end of the day the soles of my feet were burning just from the constant pressure of the hard insoles, and today I'm actually limping from the shooting pain in my right foot. I'm really unhappy with the comfort aspect. I'm used to walking 10+ miles once or twice a week and standing all day at work. I bought these to replace some great Puma running shoes that I walked the soles right off of, and in that regard I am very disappointed. They look great, and if you spend most of your day sitting and driving, you might be happy. I may be able to fix them with better insoles, too. But if you need something functional right out of the box, buy something else, or expect injured feet.
