A great fitting shoe that keeps your feet well ventilated without sacrificing stability.

I’ve been looking for a comfortable, durable, well fitting shoe since my old New Balance 574’s bit the dust. I was frustrated the newer NB 574’s don’t fit like the older models and was relieved to find the Saucony Shadow Original’s fit and feel exactly how I need them too. Great shoe. great fit. Super happy.

I love the look but also really love this support the shoes provide. Very comfortable and the classic look is timeless!

I bought these before I went to Europe for 2 weeks and they are so comfortable. I've gotten a year and a half of use in them. They've held up well minus the inside of the heal wearing out from abuse. Definitely worth your coin.

I have owned saucony originals for over 6 years now and after always raving over them I got my husband hooked. This is a newer style than he is used to but he has pretty bad feet and he has no complaints!

I've always been a fan of the Saucony Jazz Originals. They're super comfortable, provide good support and I love the classic look. I gave the Shadow a try this time and I haven't been let down. They have all the comfort and support of the original with a slightly updated look. I like the mesh on the toe cap and the heel. They're everything like about the Jazz with a modern makeover.
I'd also recommend:
New Balance 574

Comfortable and stylish. The construction of the bottom of the shoe is similar to that of the Jazz Low Pro, so I'm expecting similar lifespan.

I have these in black/charcoal with a neon outsole that isn't offered on Zappos anymore. One of the most comfortable shoes I own. I own a couple models of Saucony as well -- Jazz low pro (mesh and vegan), Shadow 5000, Grid 9000, and G9 control. The Jazz original is definitely my go-to at the moment. Totally debating if I should grab another color way.

Saucony Original "Shadow" are honestly the most comfortable pair of sneakers I own. They are true to size and have a perfect wide fit, for someone who has wide feet. Aesthetically they look amazing as well. They have a great vintage sneaker vibe, with a modern fit. I'm a 28 year old, I wear them with khakis, fitted trousers and a good pair of jeans, shorts. They're perfect.
I'd also recommend:
New Balance, and vintage Nike lovers that have wide feet. Nike's run a bit too narrow.

I was 315 lbs. Bought these ran hard. The lugs help propel your kick and stride. Great knee protection. In 4 months I went down to 185 lbs and was running 6 to 10 miles per day. Saturday would hit it hard, 10 miles in one hour. The original Shadow only shoe I will run in. Stopped running when the quit making them. I called saucony and complained. Thank GOD their Back. 52 years old now 240lbs buying another pair. Ran on first pair 2 years. Lugs, cushion, build. PERFECT. DONT HESITATE !!!! BUY & RUN HARD. I am.

Saucony shadow original sneakers have been the only brand of sneakers that have provided comfort to my father who suffers from severe rheumatoid arthritis plus additional feet issues (hammer toes, callouses, etc). Inside padding provides needed support and comfort! Width allows room for swelling without rubbing or irritation. Great investment!

Love this shoe! Just as comfortable as the Jazz, and a unique take on the New Balance M574-style. Perfect shoe for many occasions, and great if you want to blend in and stand out at the same time.

I would have given it 5 stars because I absolutely LOVE this shoe....but every time I try to order a pair in the color and size I want they are never in stock. I really want the navy and off white Shadow originals and those have never been in stock in my size 9.
