Customer Reviews Saucony Progrid™ Guide

Great Shoe - Had lots of pain in my calves because of overpronating. After only a couple of workouts in these shoes pain was gone. I found the heel a little loose, but just on my right foot. That was corrected by a bandaid. Overall the shoe is extremely comfortable and well made. I will definitely buy these again.

Good Shoe - Very fast shipping from Zappos. Very comfortable shoe. I gave the comfort factor 4 stars because there is a high part in the front of the shoe, but overall very comfortable running shoe.

Overpronators Unite! This is THE shoe! These are sassy-looking and very comfortable! Once I found out that I was an over-pronator (a rare condition; most runners tend to under-pronante) I was so glad to find this shoe. It makes me feel like I could run forever and it was extremely cost effective! I got the green/silver and they look and feel amazing! Highly recommend!

Great shoe for daily walking, very lightweight. It corrects the pain I had from overpronation. Saucony is generally a good fit for my narrow heels.

Saucony Progrid™ Guide: This was my first time ordering from Zappos. A friend of mine had recently found the site and ordered her running shoes from here. After looking at the site, I took a chance and ordered. I ordered online late on Friday night, I had my shoes Monday morning. I was already familiar with Saucony shoes. I started a marathon training program 4 months ago and these were the shoes I was fitted for. The problem was to replace them every 3-4 months I was going to have to travel to the nearest store that sold them, 120miles away. These are cheaper through Zappos, then an athletic store. I love Saucony's and will order from Zappos again.

A runner's review - Good shoe for a wide - footed runner. Standard with features a wide toe box that is great for my wider foot. Arch support could be better (I have high arches) but this can be remedied with athletic insoles...Overall great shoe!

DeLIGHTful for walking - I buy Saucony running shoes for walking, because I like the support they offer me. My Omni Progrid 5s lasted 2-1/2 years, so I thought they were money well-spent. Since Saucony no longer makes the Omni 5 shoes, I went to their website and the Progrid Guide is what they recommended as a replacement for my now-very-worn Omni 5s. I was delighted at how light they were when I took them out of the box. And when I put them on my feet, I had that initial "Ahhhhh" reaction. I've been wearing them every day for several weeks now and I still think they feel great. Very comfortable and light, very supportive. Not quite as stiff as the Omni Grid 5 shoes were. They are cut-out nice and low at the ankle, so I don't get that painful ankle rubbing that I get with some brands of running shoes. I am a moderate over-pronator, and I do think these shoes are a little less efficient in that regard, compared to the Omni Grid 5 shoes. I think these ultimately may not last quite as long as the Grid 5s. My only other minor complaint is the white mesh fabric, which gets dirty easily and does not clean up very well. And if you wear dark or bright colored socks, the color shows right through the mesh -- which I guess could be a plus, depending on how you look at it.

Finally I got the right sneaker!! The first pair of shoes I bought was the Asics Cumulus 10, but it was for under pronators. They weren't bad with an insert. The second pair of shoes I bought, Reebok Premier Trinity KFS III, were for excessive overpronators. They had a very high arch. Turns out I'm a slight to medium over pronator with low but long arches. These shoes give me the support along the inside of my heel to the ball of my big toe like no other shoe. I'm not a fan of white sneakers, but the silver/green option looks cool!

Put on your feet and go - I read all of the other reviews for this shoe and decided to buy it as a fast walking shoe. It really does feel good right out of the box. Great cushioning, great stability, medium arch support, light weight, fits like a sock in the back, a little wider in the toe box. Great for fast walking or if you have to stand on your feet all day. I always buy 1/2 larger for exercise and it was perfect. And Zappos got it to me so quickly!!!

Such a comfortable shoe! This is by far the most comfortable running/walking shoe I have ever worn. It is lightweight and perfect for someone just getting back into the gym. I love these shoes so much this is the second pair I have bought!

Great shoe! Sauconys are excellent shoes in general, but this is the best looking pair I've bought. I always buy a half size larger since most competitive runners I know recommend that. I am also an overpronater with a low arch and these are great for those issues. The last pair of Sauconys I had were the Progrid Omni 5 Moderate and these are definitely just as good.

I LOVE THESE SHOES - I have had many pairs of Saucony, but nothing compares to these. These are so comfortable, even straight out of the box. I have very big arches; these have support, wish it was a little more. I love these shoes.

Feels like a slipper. This shoe is very light and flexible, and also very well cushioned. Some runners may prefer a firmer shoe, but I like the fact that these are more spongy and giving. As suggested by others, I ordered a half size up from my usual size, but must now wear a thick sock with these in order to get a good fit. However, I have worn my regular size 10s in Sauconys in the past that were always a bit snug. I guess I'm in between. These D width shoes are quite wide, both in the toe and heel. I also tried several other pairs of shoes, including the Saucony Progrid Omni 6, which is great if you want a more supportive shoe with a more narrow heel.

Good looking quality running shoe, supportive and comfortable. I will definitely order this shoe again. Take advice, as I did, and order a full size larger than you normally wear. Zappos is amazing; I am not used to their over-the-top level of customer service and immediate shipping without ridiculous over-charging as in most mail-orders. Next to NONE offer free returns. Thank you to the entire Zappos team!

Love these for running. This is my second pair, so you know that I really like these sneaks.

Great Stability - The best shoe for a female runner who needs stability (especially if you supinate). I love the fit and good looking style.

I love this shoe - After trying other shoes, I always go back to Sauconys. They have a wide toe, are light as a feather, and are so comfortable which for me is #1. Comfortable and they look great!

The best shoe out there! I tried dozens of shoes for 2 months until settling on these, my first pair of Sauconys. I will be a lifetime customer! They offer amazing comfort as well as great support. I wore them for a couple of hours around the house, then wore them for a 12 mile training walk (I am doing the 3 Day). My feet felt as good as they did at the start! I have wide feet and their wide shoe is quite ample without being too wide in the back. I would give them more stars if I could!

Awesome shoe! This a great shoe that felt comfortable from the first time I put it on. If you have wide feet, you might want to order up a 1/2 size. I did and the fit was perfect.

Favorite distance shoes - I bought these because my Asics Gel Kayano 13s had begun hurting the top of my feet. They were immediately comfortable and offered a snug fit on my very narrow heels. I ran a half marathon in them and despite the very wet conditions, didn't get any blisters nor did they ever feel weighed down. Easily the only shoes I grab when I'm going for a long run.

Love These Shoes! These shoes provide plenty of cushioning for long walks. The heel holds my foot in place, yet there is plenty of room in the toebox and across the front. I ordered these in both my regular size as well as 1/2 size larger because the reviews recommended the larger size. Yet, when they arrived I found no need to go to the larger size, so returned those with Zappos hassle free shipping policy. I have also found them to be comfortable enough to wear all day long.

Love this running shoe - Thanks to Zappos wonderful return policy, I had the opportunity to try on this shoe in 3 sizes in the comfort of my home and was able to choose the BEST fit. I have had various running ailments this past year: Iliotibial Band syndrome, plantar fasciitis, etc. I needed to reassess my shoe situation, re-size etc. I tried on 6M, 6W and 6.5W. The toe box in the 6 wide was adequate for my slightly wide feet. The length was good, I did not need to go up a half size from my street shoes. The cushioning is comfortable. I got rid of my insoles!!! So, I love this shoe.

Comfy right out of the box - This is my second pair of Saucony running shoes, and I don't think I'll buy another brand again. I was able to do a five-mile run in these right out of the box with nary a sore spot.
