A great shoe -
This is an excellent shoe… makes walking a pleasure and I am 64 years and a big guy. Even feel on the ground, comfy inside, too.

This is my 5th pair of this style. Very stable walking shoe as I put 6+ miles a day on them up to 12 mi. a day. Only proble is they seem to wear on the outside edge somewhat faster but it could be how I walk.

Awesome Fit -
These are the most comfortable walking shoes I've ever purchased. I have narrow ankles and a semi-wide forefoot. These shoes fit like a glove with no heel slippage. I usually wear arch support orthotics but they were not needed with these shoes. I also buy my athletic shoes a half size larger to account for foot swelling. It was too large (long) and I went back down to my normal size which still offered plenty of space from the end of my toe to the shoe front. I hope Saucony keeps making these for a long, long time. I can see why Consumer Reports rated these the top rated walking shoe.

Excellent comfort -
I bought these for my husband, based on the favorable Consumer Report rating. He LOVES them! Wears them everywhere. All day. He has a problem with pronation, which this shoe addresses.

Comfortable and Supportive -
These may be the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. They're very well cushioned, yet not bouncy, and they provide solid support all around without digging into the bottom of my ankles as many sports shoes do. Except for the solid color, I find the shape and look of the shoe to be very good, although I prefer a little more contrast (e.g., silver and blue, navy and white). Also, the free one-day shipping was just that: approximately 24 hours after I ordered, the shoes arrived. Hard to believe.

Love Zappos -
The title does sounds cornie I know but I ordered my shoes Friday the 23rd of December and they arrived The following Tuesday! I was, to say the least, amazed.
I followed the advice of Consumer Report and bought these shoes because I stand a lot on concrete......everyday. The shoes fit great, just love them. The shoes are everything that the description said they were. They serve my feet well.

Not the best shoe I've worn -
After reading all the positive reviews on these shoes, I decided to give them a try. They are very light and pretty comfortable. I didn't like the clickity clop sound they made when walking on hardwood or concrete floors. Soles seemed harder than New Balance and slippery when wet. I think I'll stick with New Balance and maybe give Asics a try.

The Omni Walkers are very comfortable shoes I must say. I walk about 30 miles a week and having comfortable shoes is obviously a priority. However, because they are made of a soft leather they squeak with every step and it can be loud at times. This is the second pair that I have owned and I would not have bought the second pair had they not be so comfortable as I was hoping that the squeaking was just a fluke with my first pair, unfortunately the second pair squeaks just as bad. I will not purchase these again as for me the squeak out weighs the comfort. Also the look of them is pretty blah. Pretty plain, these could use a little more personality. However I will stick with the Saucony brand. I have purchased other styles of theirs with good luck.

I like the width, a bit wider than average, but the others are a little narrow in my opinion. When you wear a size 15 your foot generally isn't just long. Am trying to find the perfect shoe and this is the closest of a half dozen different manufacturers and styles. Like Goldilocks, this one is 'just right'. Now, if they would just add a bit more colors and maybe some more venting.

Bought these for my Plantar Facietis, my feet have been killing me for years, and I stand on hard surfaces all day. These werent the ones I set out to purchase but with the good reviews i decided to give them a try before spending another $100 dollars on the pair I was looking at. These shoes have worked great and I noticed relief right away. I do agree that you need to purchase different insoles. I bought a cheap pair of Dr. Schloes Plantar Facietis inserts and my feet feel great, not 100% but better than they have in years. Would deffinantley buy again! Have held up well with no issues.

I ordered these shoes for my 7 yr old who seems to b growing at a rapid pace and need arch support. I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me until my husband confirmed...these shoes looked used already. Come on Zappos...DO BETTER!

I'm in my 70's, walk 4-5 miles daily as my main source of exercise and have short, wide feet.
I ordered 3 pair of Walking Shoes, size 8 Wide: Saucony Grid Omni Walker, NB WW877-grey with baby
blue trim and shoelaces (love the colors!) and Ryka Dash 2. At first, the Saucony Grid Omni Walker
were a bit stiff, but after wearing them a few times, they have softened and still maintain their support
and comfort. They're very STURDY. This is the first time I've purchased athletic shoes on line.
So far, these Saucony pair and the NB Omni Walker are definite keepers. I've tried on the Ryka pair,
and they look and feel fine, but I still have to take a few daily walks to make a final judgement.
Zappos wide selection, excellent return policy and especially the comprehensive reviews,
were extremely helpful in making my selections. This coming week I plan to test the Ryka Dash 2
and write a review for that pair as well.

Great shoes. I am a UPS driver and on my feet around 10hrs a day. Have had these shoes for a month and zero complaints so far. As comfortable of a shoe as I've ever had. No foot discomfort even when I work a 12hr day. Other reviews were right on about the size. Length is normal. Width is slightly narrow. And saw a few reviews about a squeak. I agree with that too. Not annoying but you notice it once in awhile. Either way I'm going to buy these shoes again when they wear out

I bought these because I'm a fatty and my feet hurt. They are comfortable and have great support. No more sore feet when walking! Zappos rocks.

Great sneakers - high quality - were better than more expensive sneakers that I tried on. Used to buy New Balance but they are making a cheaper quality sneaker now and will never go back to NB.

Wow, these are great. Been wearing Brooks Addiction for the last 4 years, because I gave up trying to find a walker that didn't kill me. High arches, very high instep, multiple feet problems. The Addiction kept me mobile, but I couldn't get any energy from them. These give me the push-off I need and the arch support I need, without raising the heel up. They feel good, too. The left shoe was defective, rolling my foot to the outside, but Zappos sent me a different pair immediately. And that's why I buy all my shoes from them.

I have what I consider a wide foot, and have found over the years that a 7-1/2 Saucony man's athletic shoe fits me well - I like that Saucony runs a bit wide. I actually first tried this shoe in a woman's size 9 wide and the wide made it way too big, so I decided just to go back to the man's 7-1/2 -- maybe the woman's 9 regular would have worked, but I wasn't going to risk it. Very comfortable walking shoe.

This is a really comfortable walking shoe that will be perfect for either exercise walking or for the tourist spending hours on their feet roaming around Paris or London or even Hoboken. I can't say enough good things about Zappos and their products and service. It can't be beat!

Great shoe! Right out of the box I wore these sneakers for eight hours. I do a lot of walking at the airport here in las vegas and I need a shoe that will good for my feet. With these Saucony sneakers I could feel a big difference, not as tired or sore, compared to my new balance that I used to rely on. New fan of Saucony shoes from now on.

This is a great shoe for work in a health care setting. This shoe is very comfortable and looks great. I run in Sauconys and now I work in them as well.
