My son and I only wear Saucony athletic shoes for the following reason: only Saucony has an anatomically-friendly toe box. Their toe box is wider, and allows room for toes to grip & move. In addition to this one important feature, Saucony has consistently high quality and over-all great performance. The Omni Walker has a lot of cushioning & snug support. A good walking shoe for stability & comfort. I only wish this model came in more colors, or a sueded finish.

A couple months ago I purchased the Saucony Black Grid Omni Walker and they fit great. My problem is they squeak when I walk. The left shoe was first and now the right shoe plus the left is getting louder. I wear Saucony as they seem to have the support I need. This is the first time I've ever had a problem. I don't plan to return the shoes (all the packaging has been tossed), but just wanted to let you know, and I will continue to shop with you as your customer service is the best.

Like heaven on your feet.
My father-in-law asked how could ZAPPOS deliver these shoes within 24 hours. I said they were delivered by an angel because they felt like heaven on my feet. These are without a doubt the most comfortable shoes I have ever walked in. Five mile walks leave my FEET feeling better than 2 miles in my New Bal's. Don't ever quit making the Saucony Grid Omni Walker. I AM ADDICTED.

I was originally happy with these...they seemed like they were going to hold up well. I am a mail carrier and I put 8 to 10 miles a day on them (per my iPhone health app).
After a couple of days of breaking them and I realize that they had entirely too much arch support for me. I have normal arches and these are geared more towards people who need support with very high arches.
I wore them 10 days in December, 12 days in January, and 20 days in February for a total of 42 days so about 400 miles.
The craftsmanship and quality are not very well on the sole. A portion of the heel fell off while walking, there is no reason that should’ve happened already. The tread in the sole has not even been worn flat yet.

Feet like a duck -
I have feet like a duck...toes are short relative to the length of the rest of my foot, so my feet are still wide where most shoes are narrowing in the toe area. It's hard to find a shoe the right length, but wide enough in the toes yet narrow in the heel. My official shoe size is women's 8.5 wide - but I usually buy men's athletic shoes for the width. I tried these shoes in men’s 7.5 D first, but sent them back for a 7.5 E. They couldn't fit better....roomy toes, snug enough heel. Plus the return was easy & free and the new shoes showed up the next day.

I am a nursing student and I got this shoe for clinical purposes. So far I have had nothing but comfort. This was a great choice and for those that are on their feet so many hours a day, this shoe is perfect for them.

So far, I have bought seven pairs of Saucony Grid Omni Walkers. I guess that about says it all. I wear a 13, have narrow, genetically screwed up feet, and haven't felt comfortable standing since childhood. This shoe is as close as I've ever come to being misery and I wear them day and night, seven days a week with prescription orthotics of course because without them, no shoe, not even the Sauconys, can make life worth standing when you have feet like I have.

Saucony consistently has the best fit for both my husband and me; and Zappos is the best place to buy them--they ship quickly and facilitate returns and/or exchanges for smooth and dependable transactions.

Great shoe -
Ordered shoe for friend and he said the shoe was great, best wearing shoe he has owned, he walks 5 miles each day and said he would order this shoe again. Zappos reps are the best and with free shipping and returns it makes it so easy to shop. Ordered the shoe one day and received the next day, you can't ask for better service. Thanks Zappos!

Best walking shoe ever!!
I purchased this shoe for my husband based on Consumer Reports recommendation. They were right on target. The shoe is extremely comfortable and relieves all foot pain. We plan to order another pair or two. Shoes were delivered quickly and shipping was included. Customer service reps were great - what more can you ask for!

Another great pair of Sauconys -
Saucony has consistently fit well, worn well, and been very consistent as to what I could expect. I love the ease of putting in orthotics. I generally have a pair of runners and a pair of walkers. These have great support and very good comfort straight out of the box. I've tried half a dozen other brands, but none were so consistent for me - which means, easy to make a great choice on the website with far fewer returns. Love this shoe.

SO far, so good -
I have been looking for walking shoes and decided to try ones from New Balance (792 and 844) and Saucony. I was not sure of my exact size, so I ordered a bunch of each in 3 different sizes. When I tried on the NB 792, which was highly rated in Consumer Reports, the 12 was too tight, and the 13 too big (they do not come in 1/2 sizes above a 12). The size 13 NB 844 fit well, but it did not seem to give me much cushioning. While I am used to my running shoes (Brooks Adrenaline) being flat, I am used to walking shoes giving me a bit of a roll as I walk, helping the natural gait. The NB 844 did not give me any sort of roll. That coupled with the lack of cushioning led me to not like them.
I then tried on the Saucony, and it felt like a little slice of heaven. It was supportive and cushioned, and gave me the roll that I was looking for when I walked. Consumer Reports rated this as very highly, and I can see why. So far I have put about 10+ miles on them, and they feel awesome. I am hopeful that they will stand the test of time.

A very comfortable walking shoe with very good cushioning and support. The only drawback is that it doesn't have much ventilation, so when the weather gets hot, I switch to another shoe.

These shoes run large. I have a pair of size 13 Sauconys at home and they are a hair too large, so I ordered a 12.5 from Zappos. I could fit a finger behind my foot when I put them in. Strange.

This is the best walking shoe. It works perfectly for those who's on their feet 8 hours plus. It may not look stylish. If comfort is all you care about. This is the shoe for you.

White Saucony sneaker -
I finally broke down and ordered a pair of these shoes. They are somewhat costly, however, not having pain with walking or standing for my job makes them worth that price and then some. Thank you.

My husband is an R.N. This is the 2nd pair of Omni Walker shoes that he has owned. Must be a great shoe to buy again!!!

Opinion -
The subject shoes are probably one of the finest, most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. They fit and function wonderfully. I would however like to see them modified to breathe better. That is a very minor thing though. I will buy them again when it's time.
I'd also recommend:
Probably a comparable pair of New Balance shoes.

Wonderful -
This shoe is the best I have ever had. A few years ago I had a car accident and my foot was severely injured. I can put this shoe on and walk without pain! Love it.
My only complaint is that they have run out of my size. Please hurry and get more in stock.

Extremely comfortable -
These came out of the box extremely comfortable and, in the limited time I have used them so far, I have found them to be great walking shoes. The look? Eh. Black is good. I prefer a rounder toe. Otherwise OK.

As expected. My son wears grid cohesion sneakers but needed shoes for work. These fit similarly.

This shoe offered more support than a New Balance counterpart which I bought at the same time and returned. Once I removed the insole, it allowed me to insert my own and still fit comfortably as I have plantar fasciitis. Will definitely buy another.

Great shoes very comfortable for a black work shoe in a very busy work environment. The service from Zappos is crazy. Ordered shoes at 8pm got shoes next day standard shipping!

The shoes fit perfectly. I ordered them on a Sunday evening and they arrived on Tuesday morning. Much faster than I expected. I certainly will be a return customer.
