I'm a 15-20 mile a week runner and I love these sauconys! It is very hard for me to find shoes because of the way I run on the outsides of my feet a little bit. I've tried to switch to New Balance and had to send them back.

Saucony does a great job with shoes that are stylish and comfortable without sacrificing functionality. I have a really hard time fitting tennis shoes to my foot. Saucony consistently fit.
This was a little wider at the heel than I would like but there is lots of room at the toes. It's that foot thing again.
The shoe lace would have been better if it were a little longer since I like to keep the shoe loose around my arch. I really like these shoes.

These shoes have provided me comfort for thousands of miles of walking. I have owned 6 pair, I am so sad that Saucony changed their new Guide 5.

My new orthotic adds one whole width and one full length to my size. I am not sure if the shoe is now running smaller or the orthotic is much larger than the prior orthotic--anyway, this is the shoe for me, and I was so pleased to find the size in stock at Zappos.

These shoes are very comfortable and fit well. There is also room for my orthodics. I love them--ordered black so they wouldn't look so atletic w/ black pants.

I ordered these shoes and I believe I received them 2 days later (it's been about a month and I cant say for sure...if it wasn't 2 days it was 3 for sure). I am completely impressed with Zappos! I already had this pair of shoes so I knew exactly which ones I wanted and these were them.

The best running shoe! I've bought others, but I loved this one so much that I've come back for my second pair.

I have worn these shoes before but could no longer find them locally. Zappos was the most wonderful company to deal with. I will be back! The shoes are the same great products that I remember.

I bought these shoes to use in the gym, for exercise classes as well as treadmill walking. They are comfortable and suit my needs pretty well. I ordered the wide version because I need to insert orthotics. The shoes did accommodate the orthotics, but I wouldn't call them overly wide. If you're looking for a well-constructed, protective, and reasonably priced shoe, these fit the bill.

I bought this shoe as an alternative to the more expensive Adidas Supernova Sequence 4, the current version of the Supernova shoe I used to wear, which they no longer make. They seemed to have similar soles and support so I hoped it would be the same. The shoe is pretty comfortable, but not as nice as my old Supernova. The Supernova required no breaking in, it was comfortable right from the beginning. These Sauconys hurt my feet a little bit the first few times I wore them. The arch support was not as good as I had hoped either. However, the over-pronation prevention that I need has been effective and I haven't had any trouble with that.

This Saucony is my third pair of this particular brand. I really like the way they fit my foot and stride. The Progrid Guide 4, in particular is comfy right out of the box. The shoe does run a bit small, I'd say a half size. My only complaint is that the back top wants to crumple down when putting the shoe on. I have modified the way I put on a shoe and that seems to fix the issue.

Cannot quite put my finger on it but have been buying the guide series for years; they are the only sneakers that fit my sensitive feet. But these are not as great. Stiffness is one thing and the tongue is too fat . Yes, too fat. I get so frustrated when you buy a product, like it, seek out new version & the company decides to try and cut corners. At least that's what I assume happened. Will look for a different brand/model next time.

Wore these around the house for a weekend and my feet hurt and some of my toes went numb which happens to me when I'm in heels for 12+hours not in tennis shoes!

These sneakers look awesome, but they don't have much cushion in the toe area. I usually buy Asics, but I thought I would give these a try. Unfortunately, for Saucony, I am returning to my Asics.

I would stay away from ordering this type of shoe with the mesh in the future. One shoe has already torn on the lining under the mesh by the big toe. I am not a runner either. I think that they are a comfortable shoe, but I am very disappointed that they are not going to last very long if they are already tearing after about a month. Buyer beware!

Just bought my second pair of these, in another color. For reference, I usually wear a 7 1/2 AA in dress shoes, and have these in 8 AA. I have very narrow, low volume, zero arch feet, and these are running shoes that actually work for me (in narrow width). They are more on the structural side rather than super cushion-y, but I find that works well for walking/running on uneven surfaces. I alternate these with Asics GT-2170, which are more cushion-y but not as supportive. Finally, I tried the ProGrid Guide 5 and didn't like them as much; fortunately the ProGrid Guide 4 was still available so I was able to replace my worn out ProGrid Guide 4 with another pair of ProGrid Guide 4. Now I'll have to wait for the "6" version.

These are good shoes, but they do not hold up! Within the first few wears, the mesh near the toe wore away, and then the webbed material ripped. I have only put 300 miles on them, and the hole in the toe is 3 inches long. I didn't have this problem with the Saucony Progrid Guide 3s, and I have heard the 5s are better. But don't bother with the poor construction of the 4s.

These sneakers run narrow. I usually wear New Balance and haven't worn Saucony in many years. I would not buy them again. I wear a 5 1/2 wide. I bought a 6 wide. As soon as I put them on I knew they were not wide enough in the toe box. I sent them back right away.
