I originally ordered a Jazz and they are incredibly bulky and not really my style. The Bullet is much sleeker and more similar in style to popular Asics and Pumas. While the main polyester fabric of the shoe looks and feels cheap, these shoes are incredibly comfortable, and because of that, they are my new everyday shoe! Definitely order 1/2 a size larger than your normal shoe size. I am usually an 8 1/2 and the 9 in this shoe is just right.

They are SO light! I love the look too! Based on the reviews I added my own arch support, and they are now perfect!

I love these shoes. They are super cute, super comfortable, and they make my feet look small. I have the same style in 8 and 8 1/2 and do not wear thick socks with either because it makes them feel a little tight.

I was a little wary about buying these shoes, because the just don’t look as comfortable as the Saucony jazz... but despite the slimmer feel and less padding, they still feel great. I wouldn’t go running in them (I have my Saucony Omni 8s for that), but for walking around town or running errands, they’re perfect. I have AWFUL feet (bunions, narrow heels, high arches) and most shoes designed for comfort just don’t cut it - Saucony has always been my go-to shoe for comfortable wearability right out-of-the-box. Also, they look great! Make my big ugly feet look small.

1. I freaking love these shoes. 2. I love how Zappos tells you 4-5 days shipping, but you get them the next day. Hot. 3. They fit great. Make sure you don’t wear too bulky of socks though. 4. They even send you an extra shoe string. How freaking amazing. 5. I have big feet for a woman so it is hard to find shoes. At Zappos it is not. Shopping online can be scary, but not with their free return policy and free shipping. Are you kidding me? Love it.

Love these shoes! I’ve always worn Sauconys, but wanted something more modern with a thin sole so I was very excited to find these. They fit true to size although did feel a bit narrow when I first put them on. However, after wearing them for a day or two, they stretched and feel just fine now. They don’t offer great support because they are thin soled, but are certainly fine for going to and from work. Also, I get compliments on them all the time so others seem to like them as well.

This shoe is great. I bought it because it is lightweight, but has a pretty solid sole and is grippy as well. It’s highly recommended!

I love these shoes. I normally wear an 8.5 in a tennis shoe/casual shoe and these were true to size. My foot is also narrow so these fit perfect for me. They are very lightweight and super cute, too. You wouldn't want to wear them as an athletic shoe, but for a casual fashion shoe they are great!

I wear Saucony Jazz every day, have 6 pair of them. This style is really dressier, and I love them so much I have bought another pair in gray.

I bought these shoes for a weekend trip to Washington DC. My feet never hurt once and we must have walked 15 miles or so. The size fits true to size. It is exactly the size I normally wear. They also fit really well, more feminine fitting than others!

These run 1/2 size small compared to my other Sauconys (Jazz), but are very comfortable. Having said that, they are also very flat, so I wouldn't go walking miles in them. But for kicking around and running errands on the weekend, they're perfect, and super lightweight.

These shoes are great! I have never gotten so many compliments on a pair of sneakers in my life, and they are super-comfortable and hip. I love all the color choices, too!

Love these super comfy sneakers.I can walk to work in them (2 miles one way) without any problems. These are for walking, not running. Highly recommend ordering half size up. They are a little snug. I am usually a 9, and a 9.5 is perfect. They are very light weight and feel almost like a slipper. Cute "urban" sneaker. I have 2 pair in different colors.

I am a woman with size 11 feet, so I am always on the lookout for shoes that don\\\'t make my feet look any larger. Because there is not a lot of extra padding on these shoes, they hug my feet and look great. On the flip side, the minimal padding means that I can feel every bump and crack on the sidewalk underneath my feet, and after a long day I\\\'d rather be in supportive sneakers. But they are a happy medium between shoes that are 100% comfortable and shoes that fit the business casual dress code. I can even get away with teaching in them.

Bought the Saucony Originals Bullet in gray with yellow details. I got them specifically for my 6 day NYC trip. Let me say that they are the perfect walking shoe. They are so light, which I love. They're so comfortable with pretty good traction. I walked around everyday for 6 days in NYC without my feet hurting. Of course, the bottom of my feet was sore, but that's to be expected no matter what shoe you wear. If you're on your feet all day walking, that's a lot of pressure being applied to the bottom of your feet. I usually wear a size 7 and occasionally a 7.5. I went with the 7.5 and the fit was perfect. If you're between sizes, I recommend going with the bigger size as I believe these shoes run a half size small. If you're going on a trip and plan on doing a lot of walking, I highly recommend these. They look great with skinny jeans because they're not bulky like most sneakers.

I love these! It is my second pair. My first ones have held up for over a year and I wear them daily. They have great arch support which is why I think they are so great. I would buy a half size bigger than you would wear in a dress shoe, just like any athletic shoe, they fit tighter than dress shoes.

I love these shoes, even more than I thought I would. They are butterscotch-y colored. I have worn them to bits already. They are very slim, and glove-y, and fitted. These are a solid walking shoe, they are not for running, for walking they are ridiculous comfy. If I could afford more, I'd buy several. I bought another cheapy pair of Asics that week and I haven't worn those more than once.

I ordered 2 sizes: a 5 and 5 1/2, as I wasn't sure of fit. The 5 is great and my daughter took the 5 1/2. We purchased the charcoal with yellow trim and love them. Trendy, comfortable, look great with jeans. I love Zappos and the great service.

These shoes are fantastic! The soles are thin, so if you are looking for supportive shoes for a long day of walking, you might not want these. However, I find it them very comfortable. Indeed, I had to buy another pair!

I bought the black and green ones. They are super comfortable and work really well for my narrow feet. I think someone without narrow feet might actually have trouble wearing these things. They are really cute and look great with skinny jeans.

Very nice. Just got these yesterday, and I've worn them all day today. They are super light! There's not much padding or anything towards the front of the shoe, so I can feel the ground when I walk. I'm normally a size 9.5, and I ordered them in 9.5 and there is still a little extra room. These shoes are pretty much perfect. I love them!

These are best sport shoes I\'ve had in the last 10 years, and I am not exaggerating. I\'ve bought shoes that were twice as expensive, that were recommended and fitted to my foot by specialists in the athletic show stores, and all these Nikes, Adidas and Pumas are gathering dust in my closet. I am walking on air in my trendy Saucony, and I have just ordered a second pair.\r\n\r\nNote these are not meant for serious running, they don\'t have enough support for that. But at 6 oz weight they are wonderful for walking, machine and weight indoor training, aerobics, and for walking on lake front looking cool. I walk 5-6 miles a day in them from the day One. I highly recommend Saucony Bullet, buy half a size up.

Purchased this b/c I wanted a closed shoe that would be light and stylish for summer; this fit the bill perfectly. It wears like a glove and, like all Saucony shoes (the reason I keep buying them), the insert is removable. I have special orthotics. I like the modern color combinations, and would easily buy another pair if I could afford it. It's one of those shoes that wears easily, you can stay in it the whole day the first day.

The shoe is a true size (for 8.5) I love the style and the fact that it is extremely lightweight, with a very flexible sole. It has a comfortable arch support. My original purpose in buying was to wear the shoe for tai chi, which has worked very well. Floor contact is good, and the sole is soft enough to allow the foot to roll. It felt so good; I had to buy another pair for street wear. I'm waiting to see what colors arrive next!

These shoes are wonderful. I ordered them for a trip to Europe, where I would be doing a lot of walking and activity (And let’s face it, your basic flats or Chuck Taylor's won't cut it for arch support or long-lasting comfort). I love how they look (and apparently, so do other people). I like how light they are. They are close-fitting & allow movement, and are just darn good looking. The sole near the toes is relatively thin, which means you can feel what you're walking on (I kind of like this, personally). I would recommend ordering a half size UP. I would not recommend them as serious* running shoes. Definitely a great pair of sneaks though. Get them.
