Customer Reviews Saucony Originals Bullet

They squeak when I walk. It's awful. I kept them but now I kind of hate them because of the squeaking. Agree with other reviews, there is no arch or support whatsoever. Bummer

These are great looking shoes but I get a painful rub on my heels whenever I wear them. They also have no arch support. Nit worth the price nor the pain. I cannot recommend these.

I loved the color and style, but blisters on the back of my heels for days ??

These are very flimsy shoes, especially under the ball of the big toe. My feet started to hurt just wearing them around the house. Bummer. They are cute. I guess you have to sacrifice support to have a sleeker shoe.

I have purchased this style of Saucony shoes several times and really liked them. They do not last forever if you wear them daily, but they look good, are vegan, and I find them more comfortable than Tigers. All that being said, the pair I received were really narrow and small as well. So disappointingly they are going back. That is kind of a hassle as I am traveling and wanted them for an upcoming part of my trip. This style fit me great before, so I do not know if it was a fluke or if they changed their sizing in manufacturing. I did not see others complaining about the size so maybe it was an anomaly, but mine were very small and narrow. I am afraid to order the next size up, that they will be correct and huge on me and I will have to return again.

I've gone through 4 pairs of Jazz sauconys. I really wanted to like this shoe as well. Too late too return, but I know to stick with the Jazz from now on. There is much less arch support than the Jazz and my feet feel like they are pronating inward when I've really never had that problem. And I'm only wearing them for walking. I can't believe anyone would run in these... They are also a bit snug. I can only wear my thinnest socks. The tongue also sticks up (maybe because they are so tight?). I can't get it to lay flat under my pant legs even re-lacing the shoe farther up. Love the style though.

These shoes are super uncomfortable! They are totally flat-footed and a bit narrow. Do not bother with this lower profile style and just get the standard Jazz Sauconys.

Runs very small. I've no idea if they're comfortable. I wear orthotics that fit in it just fine, but there's absolutely no room in the toe box in any way. I don't think my feet shrunk two sizes overnight.

These shoes run half a size small. They are very cute but really uncomfortable. They have zero support at the ball of your foot. It feels like you are walking on cement.

Super small. I wear a 6 to 6.5 so thought the 6.5 would be comfortable or roomy. I couldn't even get my foot in it. The reviews were correct...returned.

I wear a 9.5 medium & sometimes a 9.5 wide. Ordered these in a 10, all I could get into the shoe were my toes. Runs crazy small & crazy narrow. The only way these would have fit would be if they were an 11 extra wide.

I usually wear a 9.5 so I ordered them 9.5 and could barely get them on. They felt very flimsy and I didn't even bother buying them in a larger size. Such a shame since I love the way they looked!

I am sure they are okay but they run way small! I ordered a 12 they probably fit a size 9! I do not suggest buying these shoes because they are so far off normal sizing you won't know what you are getting.

I was looking for a casual pair of tennies for errands, running around town, etc. But after just a little use, these shoes have been causing me leg pain. I think the problem is that the shape of the sole forces my knees slightly inward. Normally my heels strikes the ground on the outer edge, and these shoes force a heel strike that's more 'level' across the entire back of the heel. Before you decide if these shoes are for you, I recommend putting them on and standing on a hard surface. If you feel like your knees are rotating inward, they might not be a good fit for you. The shoes are light and seem well-made, but unfortunately I find I can't even wear them for short periods of time.

I love the look of the shoe but am disappointed in the support. I have other Saucony sneakers and am shocked at how flimsy these feel compared to others by the same brand. I re-read some reviews after receiving these and agree that they are much smaller than marked and have an odd smell too. Since Zappos is great with returns, I am thinking I will return them and put the money toward a sneaker worth buying!

I bought these shoes because I'd had trouble in the past with plantar fasciitis and knee issues. After reading Born to Run, I realized that my knee issues resulted from compensating for the plantar problem; and the plantar problem was clearly the result of over-cushioned shoes. So I'd been searching for a lightly padded shoe without all the bells and whistles. The shoe is comfortable, but I think it's billed more for fashion than running -- it's not very breathable (the suede trim turned my socks purple), and most runners need a wider forefoot to compensate for the natural swelling that occurs when you run more than a few yards. These were too narrow and give me blisters if I run more than two miles, which I do daily. I've kept the shoes because I have yet to find a non-cushioned running shoes that's any better, but I won't buy them again. If you have narrow feet, you may be fine with these. Otherwise, keep looking.

I really wanted to love this sneaker. The design and color (charcoal and yellow) are great. They looked great in person. However, they didn’t fit me very well. They seem to run slightly small, they don’t offer much support at all, and they fell too far below my ankle making it feel as if the sneaker wasn’t securely on my foot. This poor fit around the ankle was the deciding factor for me to return this sneaker. Not all Sauconys are bad though. I have a pair of Saucony Originals Jazz Low Pros and I love them!

No sole near toes - Super super super cute shoes. really tiny and look great with straight leg pants BUT I sadly had to return them. There is absolutely NO sole past the ankles. It's like walking on unusually thin flip flops. No support for toes or balls of feet- you feel exactly what you’re walking on. Probably would be okay for inside use, but forget about going outside. So cute, it's such a shame!

Cute. No padding under ball of foot or forward. Since I can fold the shoe in half its not durable enough for dog walking or standing around at work. But this makes them very lightweight. If that is what you are looking for.

Too small and I only buy Saucony tennis shoes.

I ordered my usual size 10 and was so disappointed! The size 10 in this shoe looks like a 7 or an 8. I couldn't get my feet into them. Very disappointed

Not comfortable
