I love my bullets. I have been wearing these shoes almost every day for three years. They have a super low profile, very simple and chic.These shoes have really lasted! They always look stylish and are very comfortable, with minimalist support that I love. After three years and two walking trips in Europe, they still look great!

This is the second pair I've purchased. I never wear out shoes, but the first pair was so comfortable I did. These are very lightweight and flexible. They're perfect for walking and are my go-to shoe if I know I'm going to be on my feet all day. They slip on and off easily so I never have to tie them (which probably contributed to the first pair's demise). I have high arches, but I never have a problem wearing them for extended periods of time.

I have the flattest, narrowest, worst, biggest feet of anyone I've ever known. It's hard for me to find shoes that work with my size 12, and when I find a shoe that doesn't hurt or feel like 80lbs, I almost weep for joy. I bought a pair of Bullets 2 years ago after coveting them for months while unemployed. Since then, I have worn them literally everywhere, from walking miles in the city, running up and down riverbanks on rivers, dancing at parties, walking the dog, gardening -- pretty much everything. I'm now using them at the gym with my special orthotics and it's the best running & workout shoe I've ever experienced, which is awesome given my frankensteins. So I'm buying a new pair. FYI It took about 3 wears for the back heel to break in, wearing them without socks. Gave me a little bit of a blister, but other than that, I think I want to be buried in these shoes I love them so much.

I cant say enough good things about these sneakers. They are stylish and flexible; by far the most comfortable sneaker or shoe I have ever worn. I would get them in every color if I could!

Love these shoes. This is my second pair. I ordered a half size up as they run a bit small. Very light, almost feel as if you are not wearing shoes.

This is my third pair but first time I'm reviewing. I'm only 25 but have problem feet. Another problem is that it is hard to find a stylish shoe that is also durable, comfortable and has good arch support. Then there was the Saucony Bullet. I am literally in love with this shoe. I am between a 9 and a 9.5 so the first 2 pairs I bought were 9s. Once my toe literally broke through the seam at the top of my second pair I decided to go up a half size and I'm very glad I did; the 9.5 is perfect. I chose "good" in the durability section because the seam ripped but I also wear these shoes a TON so that may be my fault and not Sauconys. Regardless, I'm sure I will be buying more of these shoes in the future and I recommend them to anyone who is looking for kick-around shoes that are both stylish and comfortable.
Also, I should mention that personally they do not provide enough support for running - I wear some stability Asics for running because I have plantar fascitis and need more support than these can provide. But that is just my experience and I'm sure they would work very well for running for those who do not require as much support as I do.
Thanks, Saucony!

Best shoes ever... As close to being barefoot while wearing shoes without looking like an idiot in those foot gloves. Compliments every single time i wear them. Please, Saucony, please do not stop producing the bullet!

I am a true size 7 and based on other reviews decided to order a 7, but they ended up being small, so I re-ordered in a 7.5 and they are perfect! I have been looking for a casual sneaker that was comfortable but also somewhat stylish (and that had a pink sole) and these definitely fit the bill. They do have a thin sole, so if you are looking for something really supportive these probably aren't it, but they do have very slight arch support and support on the heel that will be fine for walking around the city and even light workouts. I'm so glad I stumbled upon these!

These shoes are very comfortable for those that like their feet close to the ground like I do, they feel like ballet flat sneakers. For size comparison, I am in between a 7.5 and 8. I ordered the 8's and they fit perfect. Normally an 8 is slightly large on me and 7.5 is frequently a tad small. My feet are also on the wide side. I also ordered the Onitsuka Tiger by Asics Ultimate 81 in size 8 and they felt too roomy so they went back. So I would call these a cute, stylish, very lightweight, comfortable, everyday running around, small 8. I ordered the grey and pink and the color is true as shown.

You wouldn't know it by looking at these shoes, but it's like walking on a pillow, I kid you not! I do not use these on a daily basis. I keep them at work, and use them about two days a week for a few hours (when I'm teaching a specific class). I will definitely purchase more to wear outside of work!

I now own 3 pair of these bullet style shoes and my 5th pair of Saucony. The bullets are absolutely so comfortable. No breaking in time needed. They are nice because of the low profile, they are girlish and feminine. Looks nice with jeans. If your considering these shoes, just get them you, won't regret it. I hope they keep making them. I will keep buying more.

The shoes have a contoured insert and thus provides a little bounce and support in very lightweight slim-profile running/activity shoes. I love it. They are perfect for light trail runs and gym workouts! Saucony runs a full size smaller than usual so make sure to order up! I am a true 8 and wear a 9 with this brand.

This shoe is snug and supportive while maintaining style and sleekness. Having the proper support for one's feet helps their overall posture. This shoe delivers on all levels.

I love these shoes. I already own two pairs and want a third, though I am not thrilled with the current color options so I guess I will wait. These are so comfortable, lightweight, and attractive! I actually get compliments on these - and they are not even dress shoes! I highly recommend them for long distances of walking and light hiking.

I am happy with these shoes. Other reviewers said they ran a little small, so I ordered a half size up. There is plenty of room for my toes, I probably could've ordered my true size. But I don't mind a little extra room, it's better than being too tight. There is not a lot of support, so these make a great urban shoe. I walked all day at the aquarium in these, and my feet were fine. Just don't try and go hiking in them, because you will feel every little rock. Zappos is the best. Their free shipping and customer support are unmatched. I will always buy my shoes here.

This is my 5th pair of saucony bullet originals. I love these shoes for trail running in Colorado. They have a super lightweight and tight fit that is great for agility, and the soles stick to rocks so I don't slip. These are the only atheletic shoes I will buy anymore. They are great!

I returned my size for a half size larger and they were perfect and I am spot on with my size normally so go up. Very thin, and no support, but I wear orthodics with them so I get the support I need (I have very high arches). They are just as cute as the picture!

They do run narrow, but this was perfect for me because I have a narrow foot. I had read the reviews before purchasing, so was glad to know this. The style is great. Would recommend these shoes and all other Saucony Shoes.

These are my favorite pair of shoes because I can seriously wear them with anything. This is also my third pair of Bullet sneakers - that's how much I really love these shoes! I'm typically a very picky shoes person and I've finally found a pair that I can honestly say I'd go back to.

I really like these shoes. I hike uphill 5 times a week and these shoes have proven great. I don't like big huge clunky trainers. These are sleeker and I like feeling the road. I have kind of wide feet and these work well. I like them with and without socks. Would definitely buy another pair.

I have worn Saucony's for years, and originally started with the Jazz Original's. I love the flat soul on the Bullets, I love how the shoe fits, and looks. The only thing I might add is a little more padding on the ball of the foot.

As a fitness professional, "tennis shoes" are what I wear every day. I may have a wardrobe of tennis shoes but most of them, when you get right down to it, are not always as comfortable nor do they fit as well as I'd like. That all changed when I discovered Saucony. I have another pair of Saucony shoes so when I needed a red pair, I looked everywhere for the brand but they proved impossible to find. That's when I looked on Zappos. Good thing I did! These shoes are unbelievably uncomfortable and my size 8.5 feet look tiny in these shoes (others have commented on that.) I couldn't be happier with my choice. If you need a comfortable, attractive athletic shoe, I urge you to give them a try. Thank you Zappos!
