Zappos has great service, but unfortunately I didn't use the return for this shoe. If you are a girl, it is perfect. It's light, thin and slick. But, if you are a guy, well, it is like you are wearing your sister’s shoes. They only look good in tight clothes. I wear an 8.5 and these shoes make me look like I'm wearing a 5.5. So, if you don't like these shoes on first impression, there might be a reason why. I wish I would have listened to a reviewer on this one.

Good looking, light shoe.
These shoes look and feel great. They're definitely light though. I wouldn't be surprised if they wear out quick or become pretty dirty pretty quickly. Still a good shoe to wear every once in a while.

OG Bullet. Pretty thin -
These are comfortable shoes, but a lot flimsier than previous Sauconys I have owned. They are also a tad smaller than the average sized Saucony, which made internet ordering a bit unpredictable.

Comfortable - but won't last long -
Extremely lightweight, thin sole, and pretty comfortable - but it's a $50 shoe and nothing more. As long as you're not expecting durability, you'll like it. The fabric feels very cheap, there was actually a small hole in the toe of mine when I got it...

Bought this for my husband. He is a true 10.5 but these we’re too small. He also didn’t like the quality of the materials even though he liked the pictures on line.

These really looked great in the photos and the Zappos video. They weren’t as I expected. I thought they would be more substantial and made of leather. I didn’t realize they are nylon old school style. They are also extremely narrow.

Beautiful shoes, don't last -
I love Saucony shoes, and the Bullet has a great, leaner profile. The black/burnt orange color is really gorgeous! However, like the reviewer below noted, the nylon upper goes FAST. Just normal wear has left the nylon shredded within a couple months. I have never seen a shoe, never mind a sneaker, wear through so fast. A real tragedy, I loved these shoes!

Love that Saucony 's never need time to break in. Perfect right out of the box. I think I prefer the Originals over the Bullets, but either way, great shoe

I wear size 11 classic Vans. After reading a bunch of reviews I went with the 11.5 Bullet and it was perfect out of the box. I also got the size 11 for good measure and it definitely felt half a size too small so I returned it. I wear these mostly for working out as I like grippy, minimalist yet stylish shoes.

The bullet has quickly become my favorite all-around shoe. It's a classic! Why in the world would Saucony want to discontinue it?? Please bring it back!!

Pretty comfy, very lightweight, and I like the style. Unfortunately not much arch support - so perhaps not great for longer walks - but a nice casual sneaker.

Incredible fit. Super comfortable even though the sole is thin, which I love. Not a fan of the big, bulky shoes. These were the best all around shoes I’ve ever worn!

I have worn Saucony Womens Bullets for years. They are my favorite shoe, so comfortable and they look amazing! The Bullets almost have a zero drop, Which really helps my back pain. Please, please bring back the Bullet!!

I purchased my first pair of bullets forever ago and although I have gravitated to other brands, whenever I dig out my bullets I order another pair. Came here to order more and see everyone saying they are discontinued. WHY?!

The Bullet is a classic style and the perfect street shoe. I like that it's a narrow fit and not bulky. I hope Saucony has a back up plan, as this shoe clearly has a cult following.

I bought a pair of Bullets back in high school - the were my first Saucony shoes. I thought they looked sleek, I liked the thinner sole, and most of all: they were the first pair of shoes that fit perfectly and comfortably on first try. I loved that pair of shoes. I bought the shoes when I was 18, and I am 23 now - I only just stopped wearing them because I finally wore a hole in the rubber of the right shoe (and if I'm being honest, I still wear them on nice days when the ground is dry). They are STILL my most comfortable shoes, and I have tried several others - they have been up mountains, through deep mud (and then the laundry), and across my college campus more times than I could recount. I have worn them while skateboarding, dancing, running, and playing sports with friends.
I would love to replace my old pair - if there were better color options. I loved the light grey/white and light green versions of the shoe, and I'd love to see those colors and more make an appearance here. I'll be first in the queue if that happens.

I bought my first pair a few years ago and they quickly became my go-to. I stand all day on my feet and shoes really are uncomfortable for me but these don't hurt me. I am not limping around by the end of a long day when I wear these. Please bring them back. I neeeed all the colors.

These are great shoes and I'm not sure why they would be discontinued as they have a big fanbase. If Saucony likes money they should continue making these.
