Minimalist. Low-profile. Exactly what I was looking for! The sole is a little stiff (compared to Converse All Stars, my other minimalist sneaker), but still comfortable. I you wear a size 10 in running shoes; a size 10 in these will be fine. They're sized like running shoes (though I can't imagine distance running in them).

Thank you for this shopping experience. And Zappos' customer relations is really number 1 in the world. By the way, loved the Saucony Bullet. Never hesitate for both.

These shoes are awesome, especially when you put the yellow laces in them. Everyone I walk by notices theses slick shoes. They feel a lot like running shoes, I think they would be pretty good for Parkour.

It's the kind of shoe that eludes you to the point it seems almost intentional. Comfortable, breathable, low profile, and size 14? Well, I found it. I recommend the Bullet to anyone who, well, wears shoes.

These shoes are super low profile. They have no ankle support. They feel more like slippers than shoes. They are extremely comfortable and lightweight so I will keep them, but I don't think I would buy these shoes again.

I am originally from Minnesota. Upon my relocation to Texas and the ridiculous summer heat we have to deal with here, light, breathable shoes are a necessity of life because I hate flip flops. The Saucony Bullet is a godsend in that regard. They're light, they breathe, and they look pretty nice to boot. The shoes may have a few problems for a few people. The Bullets offer very little arch support and sole cushion. I have flat feet so, to me, these actually feel better than most shoes. Also, I usually wear size 11. I found an 11.5 Saucony fits me perfectly. The patent leather (AKA plastic) logo on the side is sort of ugly before it gets dirty as well. Being so lightweight, the Bullet may feel a bit cheap at first. Wrong. These shoes are actually some of the most durable shoes I have ever owned. I'm actually on here to order a second pair. My current pair is still together, but just starting to fall apart after about 2 years of near constant abuse. Great mileage for a pretty low priced shoe. I kind of glazed over an important issue. These shoes look great. VERY low profile. Saucony also gives some unique color choices. Obviously not for everyone, but I like my feet to have a little color. So if you want a lightweight, durable shoe and don't need a whole lot of support, give these a shot.

These shoes are amazing! I took them to my first ever trip to Disney Land with the niece And nephew. I tell you what, I was on my feet for four days straight and my pups were doing just fine by day five. I am tuff on shoes and usually go with a skate shoe, so this was out of my normal relm of shoe choice, yet they are holding up very well and super koosh to boot.

I am in love with these shoes for everyday errands and running (not literally) around the city. They're easy to get on and off and pretty comfy; although I did replace the inserts with some upgraded ones I put in all my shoes. Love the color and plan to be wearing 'em all spring and summer.

A very good shoe for martial arts. Has a flat front sole, and the rear sole is a little elevated. Very lightweight. The product itself feels great, though it looks cheap. The Saucony stripe is plastic and looks like it'd wear out really fast.

The Bullet from Saucony is a great, low profile shoe. They are extremely comfortable and can easily adapt to any outfit. The Bullet is a great alternative to Onitsuka Tiger Ultimate 81. However, for myself, though I wear a size 12 in the Asics, I needed a size 13 from Saucony. I can't comment on the durability of these shoes as I have only worn them a few times. So, far I am very pleased with these shoes and would look to purchase another pair in the future.

Go ahead, touch my sneakers... I'm totally digging these kicks, but I got them strictly for style (my 16 year old son complimented them) and ease of slipping them on. They've been a great change up from years of having Chuck T's as my go to casual shoe. Do not buy these thinking you'll be getting a running shoe or any kind of support - think of them as cool slippers with laces.

I really like this style of shoe and this color is actually my third pair. They do run a little small. So far the only thing I dislike about this particular color combination is how the leather fades. I've had them for about a month and really like the all-black look, but the leather has faded to a shade of dark green/blue and is becoming more noticeable against the other materials that are truly black.

I really liked the look and design of these sneakers when I took them out of the box, and they seemed to be very good quality. I'm not going to be keeping them because they seemed to be almost a full size smaller than the same in another brand, like Puma or Asics.

I bought these shoes to use mostly as a work shoe. I am on my feet for 10+ hours a day when I'm working, and I needed a shoe that was light and breathable, yet still comfy enough to prevent fatigue. I found that these shoes are very light and breathable, which is a good thing. They are, however, not quite as comfy as the Saucony Jazz Originals, as the shoes and soles are much thinner. On the plus side (for being a work shoe), the soles are textured in a way that makes them slightly slip resistant (which is the main reason why I bought them over the Jazz's). However, if I could go back and do it again, I think the Jazz Originals would have better suited my needs. That being said, these are still great shoes that I would recommend to anybody, provided they aren't on their feet for hours a day.

These are a great basic athletic shoe. I took the sole inserts out because I am a minimalist junkie, and that leaves a good feel of the ground - but there is still some heel-lift angle. The thin siding and long tongue/laces segment gives a solid fit around the foot. My 8.5 M runs true to size.

Have had a pair for about 4 months. I love the shoes (they are extremely light) and I wear them almost every day. Problem is, they are already going thread-bare at the points where they flex. Not sure if I want to be buying a new pair every 4 months, because they don't last.

I have a couple pairs of the Saucony Bullet, and came here to share my disappointment that this style is no longer being sold. Please bring them back Saucony! So sorry I missed them in the pretty purple color.

Of all styles, I can't imagine why these would be the ones to be discontinued. Hands down my favorite shoe and clearly loved by many others. I haven't come across anything quite like them - both in style and comfort. Please reconsider!
