Customer Reviews Saucony Originals Bullet

I love these shoes!

Guys! For me, these are the ultimate in casual sporty shoes. I'm a serious runner so I wouldn't use these for my running but I can see how a causal runner would use them. They're so light and fit my narrow feet so well. I run with higher end Saucony running shoes and was wondering why I couldn't get a casual shoe that is as comfortable to wear as my regular running shoes. I finally found them in these. They slip on my feet and are so light I feel like my feet want to jump off the pavement. They don't look clunky like other shoes do. They look thin and sleek on your feet.

I have about 10 pair of Saucony Bullet. If I see a new color that strikes me, I might grab it. I wear this as a street shoe mostly, and occasionally switch out the insole for a pair of superfeet insoles. (black works for me) I also wear them on occasion for gym workouts, but never for running. I need more support for running. These fit me like a glove. My street shoes are size 8 and I buy these in 8.5. Sometimes, I even order men's in size 7. Since it's a sleek, retro looking shoe, the men's version doesn't seem too wide for me. I really love the color combinations; a nice touch in the gym if the trim on the shoe matches my shirt, for instance. I also wore these all over China and Tibet, and threw them in the washer on gentle when I returned home, and air dried. Good as new. I do like them for travel because they have a low profile and take up little room. Also, the laces can be loosened if need be while traveling. Big plus: very comfortable. I've never had one issue with blisters, tight spots, hot spots, etc. I prefer these far over the Onitsuka by asics. I think these shoes look great with "street to studio," type pants, or jeans or workout clothes. For me, form has to follow function, and this shoe really does cover all bases. (except running)

Very low profile, I had to go up 1/2 size.

I saw these shoes on another website but they didn't have my size in my color choice.The other website said "runs small and to order up a half size". I found my size/color at Zappos but forgot to order up. Upon arrival they were small and I had to do an exchange. Zappos made that really easy and it was so quick! I don't know about the arch support because I put in different insoles. I love the color (Coral) and the retro style.

Great sneakers for wearing with jeans walking around town. Not enough cushion for a running shoe for me but more than enough for casual wear. They're made of that old school padded nylon, so nostalgic for us 70's/80's kids. I got them in the black with silver/grey stripe. They came with both white and grey laces to either match the stripe or the sole. They run true to size, I wear an 8 in runners (Asics) and the 8 is perfect. Plenty of room in the toe box and no slipping. They make my feet look smaller than other shoes do. Not good or bad, just an observation. One quirk- the soles are sometimes very squeaky-chirpy on some hard floor surfaces if I scuff my foot on the floor at all.

These are the most comfortable walk-about sneakers I have ever owned -- and that's saying a lot! Light-weight, a bit higher in the heel but otherwise retro-flat, comfortably snug in construction. I'm not using "snug" as a euphemism for "tight"! I have wide feet and I would never mislead someone on that score. It's just that the sneakers don't let your feet slide about in them, and the side construction keeps your feet in place. Finally, the pictures don't really do the sneaker justice. They are much sleeker and less clod-hoppery than the photos look. Hard to imagine a better value for $50 in this day and age!

These shoes are awesome! They are true to size in every respect, incredibly comfortable and lightweight, and so versatile in terms of style. They are a great addition to my shoe repertoire. You can't go wrong if you purchase these. Two thumbs up!

I don't know if they would be great gym shoes but they are amazing for walking around. It's like wearing slippers. I'm already planning on asking for a second pair in black for Christmas.

Love the look and it is so very comfortable!!!

Love the shoe; this is my second color in this shoe. It runs a size smaller than I usually weat; I had to return the first pair for a larger size.

Very cute shoe, but it ran short, so back it goes. Wish it came a size bigger! Thanks Zappos!

Very attractive, neutral color. I'm a pretty true size 8.5, but I had to exchange for a size 9, so the shoe runs small. Included were dark grey and cream laces.

I should have read the reviews more carefully. These definitely run small. I'm normally a 7.5 to 8 but both were too small. Ordering the 8.5 now but not sure those will even fit. Will update when I get them. Cute shoes tho!

I've been looking for cute, comfy, low profile sneakers to go with blue denim. Finally found them with the slate/cream combo. Zappos didn't have my size so I used the "Don't See What You Are Looking For...Notify Me feature. Zappos notified me within 2 weeks that my size had become available. What great service! I usually wear a size 7 in sneakers. I had to size up to 7.5. Thank you Zappos!

I don't write reviews often because who has time for that? But...I love these shoes!! I ordered them 1month before I was scheduled to take a weekend long youth conference with 2K screaming teens & lots of walking. They're so comfy & stylish. They are still holding up beautifully since June & I wear them a lot. Ordering another color today. :)

These are cute! The gray is a pretty dark charcoal color, and the cream color parts are so bright they almost look reflective.

First day using these bad boys and they are AMAZING. They're super comfortable, no breaking in and super light. I usually wear a 7 in sneakers (6.5 dress shoes). I got a size 7 and I'm currently wearing them with thin no-show socks and they fit perfectly, no extra room. If looking to wear with thicker athletic socks, may need to size up.

Second pair of these- I had pink ones first. I like how small looking they are and not so dominating on my thin legs. I love that they are very light weight. The black ones are sleek- and my husband complimented their rich color. I am a sandal/flip flop girl so these shoes are a good pair for those closed toe adventures. Great price for a casual tennis shoe.

Cute shoe for daily wearing. I added an insole as it is pretty basic. I would definitely buy another pair. I am also happy with the size. I normally wear a 7.5 in open toed shoes but prefer sizing up to an 8 in athletic shoes. The 8 fit well.

Love, love, love! Wear them every weekend and very comfortable.

Very light, comfortable, and cute, I wear either a 7.5 or 8 and the 8 fit perfectly. My feet are slightly more narrow than a medium width with a low profile so finding shoes that fit is a challenge, I am so happy I found these. They are also very flattening for a sneaker. With a light pair of socks there is no break in time required.

Love these shoes! I took them on vacation to walk in a big city and they've done awesome. My feet don't hurt, & to pack light, they've doubled as running shoes. I had to order a whole size up though, so be aware they run small.

This is my 3rd pair of Saucony Bullets. I love them for casual wear. They're lightweight and super comfortable. They don't have a whole lot if support if that's what you're looking for. I would say they run 1/2 to 1 whole size small. I have one pair in my normal size and another pair in a half size larger. I wear my normal size when I don't wear socks, and I wear a half size up with very light socks. If you wear thicker socks, you might even try a whole size up. In my normal size, my toes touch the front of the shoe, but that doesn't bother me. My oldest pair is about 5 years old, and I still wear them. I wore them all around Disney World for a whole week, and they never hurt my feet. I would buy these again in other colors. Once you find the right size for you, you'll love them

Have been wearing this brand/style for years. Love how close to the foot they fit. Not boxy or too wide at various parts. Stylish too.
