Comforts shoe but not great support. I do Saucony’s styling though so I will always support them!

After a few weeks of kicking around in these, I'm happy with the purchase. They're just on the small side for the size (maybe 1/4 size slimmer than others) but it's not been an issue. I've been happy with how light and minimal these are, but that they're still actually very comfortable.

I prefer these for weight lifting as the flat sole and low profile design fits my need. However not recommended for other activities. Soles are bit in the hard side so definitely not made for running. Also it may hurt your feet when you spend long time on them. Love the style but lacks arch support and cushioning. Also they do run a bit tight. I recommend going up 1/2 or full size if you have wide feet.

Great fit. These are definitely ath-leisure shoes though. I wouldn't recommend anything more than a mild walk. They're exactly what I wanted. I love them.

Sleek and stylish shoe that's a little tight and light; the build quality worries me but after two weeks it's holding up very well.

I love these shoes! In fact, this is my third pair of the same pair and I will probably get a fourth pair in the next year or two when these ones get worn out. I literally wear them every day as they go with just about any outfit. They size about one size smaller. I wear a 13 and had to order a 14.
Pros +4 stars
Really comfortable, as long as I don't do a lot of walking.
Great quality! Each pair lasts 1-2 years wearing almost every day.
Cons: -1 star
Not great for long distance walking.

I normally wear size 10 but knew these ran small. I ordered 2 pairs of 10.5. One is on the snug side and the other is just right. They're listed as fashion shoes but I took them for a run and they performed well. There's just enough padding and the bottoms have great grip.

I have two pairs, daily drivers. The shoe is inexpensive, but delivers on general comfort and has a sleek look. It isn't a long day show, nor is it a performance show... but it looks good and works well in daily use.

I love these shoes and repeat order them. This is my third pair. Just a heads up, they changed the sizes. I order a size 9 and the latest pair is clearly at least a half size larger than my old 9s.

Great shoe and totally worth what I payed for it. But the sole seems a little flimsy. I doubt I could be too active in the shoe because I feel pebbles and what not a lot through the bottom.

I picked these up after wearing out my Jazz low pros. I was looking for something a little less bulky but still fitting with my own style. The first thing I noticed was how comfortable they were. After wearing them for a couple of weeks now, I can say they are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. The one caveat I'll mention is that although they have excellent cushion for the heel, they are a little thin around the balls of my feet and don't offer much support for long periods of standing. I am still very happy with this purchase and would recommend them to anyone who likes this particular style.

Fits a half size small as it seems to be too narrow for normal width. You can feel the ground on the top half of the sole but thats expected. Overall good style, colors and comfortable.

I've owned several pairs of the Jazz model in size 12 and I have loved them. I decided to switch it up and order the bullets, but for whatever reason the 12 in the bullet was WAY smaller than the size 12 in the Jazz. If you order these, order a size up!

Very light but still supportive, super comfy with an ultra low profile that looks great with slim, skinny or tapered jeans. Plus the gum sole always looks rad. I have owned several pairs of bullets over the years and I hope they never discontinue them.

I normally where a 10.5 but had to get an 11 in these. I generally where zero drop shoes or shoes with minimal lift and these surprisingly had more than expected, partially because the insole adds some additional lift too. I was disappointed because I super love the style. In the end I ended up returning them and getting the Saucony Jazz Pro Lo (canvas/hemp version). These had less drop and were still super comfortable.

For a minimalist casual shoe, I love these so far. No support, no heel= better for my feet in the long run. I went with a half size larger to make sure that my foot could spread a bit since the shoes are narrow. Narrow enough fit that my foot does not slide.

It's a great looking, low-profile shoe that works with both jeans and also summer when paired with no-show socks. The fit is rather tight, so I'd advise sizing up at least 1/2 your usual size. They are slim and tight but seem to stretch slightly with wear over time.

These are very light, very minimal shoes. I love the style and the build of the shoe. But I suggest to order a half size up.

I loved my first pair of these years ago so I bought a second. They’re a great low-profile, stylish, retro-looking sneaker. However, the quality control on this shoe is very poor. The color and texture of the suede is inconsistent from pair to pair, the edges on the side detailing and tongue tag aren’t always cut clean/straight, and the edges of the sole aren’t glued well in some spots. That being said, at just over $40 I’ll probably just wear these out and buy a replacement pair in the future.

I have owned lots of Saucony Originals over the years and I like these a lot, they look really good, but they are not as comfortable as the other pairs I have owned. They seem to be pretty bare bones in regard to arch support, which is an issue for me. The Jazz Low Pro definitely have better support!

Love the style of these but they run really tight. And they were out of the size I wanted in the color I like.
