AMAZING SHOE ALL AROUND! Wonderful support everywhere. It’s almost as if I’m walking on air. They’re stylish, come in cute colors, and are so comfy! I wear mine casually but I’m sure they’d work for anything.

These are supportive and super cute. I purchased the tan and white and just love them and now am ordering the blue. I had no need for a break in period. I normally take a size 7 medium width and the this shoe in a size 7 fits perfectly. For the price, this is a great shoe.

Love love love these shoes. They do run about 1/2 bigger. I wear an 8.5 and originally ordered 8.5 and had to return for 8. Very comfortable and stylish. Love the thick sole.

These are pretty cool shoes. I just received them yesterday and from the initial try on, they seem to have good support and are very stylish. They are a bit tight but I think they'll loosen up over time. Giving them 4/5 because the design is made with plastic which makes them look a bit cheap.

Got these for kid #2. She wore out her last pair in a year, and she's the type she don't like change. Thankfully they are still making these. She says they fit really well and I've never heard her complain about them.

After purchasing three different styles of Saucony's. this was definitely the winner! The look is a bit more athletic than I would like, I was hoping for more a fashion shoe like definitely Jazz, which comes in many different color combos, but the support and fit of the Shadow can't be beat. At first I thought that the thick heel was odd, felt like I was wearing high heels, but as it turns out it provides lots of cushion and comfort. I can stand and cook in these all day and my feet don't hurt afterwards! I wish there were more colors so I could get another pair!

There are some of THE most comfortable shoes I have ever had the privilege of owning. I recently purchased a pair of Saucony Originals Shadow sneakers and they are amazing! I am not a runner, but I highly recommend them for people who are on their feet a lot and do a lot of walking. They feel like you're walking on air. The support is unlike any other sneaker I own, and my collection is vast. I would love to see Zappos expand their stock of brands like Saucony, because, in my humble opinion, some of the more popular name brands are so overpriced and overrated. This is a beautiful, stylish shoe with great support and construct. I highly recommend it.

The podiatrist told me I need a firm soled shoe for my problem of Mortens neuroma. I bought these and they are wonderful. Usually I have to buy a size larger in athletic shoes. I bought my regular size 8 and they are perfect. Width is perfect for my medium-width foot. I work 12 hour shift in these shoes and I really am satisfied.

This is a very comfortable shoe! It's perfect for walking around all day and it looks good too. The regular width is more narrow than most shoes, but that works well for me and it doesn't feel unstable. This is a nice, feminine, casual shoe. I already want another pair in a different color.

The color seems a little bit more gray but I like that I like the extra shoelaces are the blue color I change that right away I have a word for it and these are a little bit narrow for me nothing I can't handle but I do feel I might be a little wobbly because there was so much cushion which is great but my foot is wider than the cushion pad.

These shoes are so comfy and cute. They are well padded and have good arch support which is what I was looking for because I'm experiencing plantar fasciitis in my heal. I also wanted a more funky color because I tend to stick to the safer colors.

Very comfortable, my feet and ankles are a mess after wearing heels for so many years in an office. Walk a lot and needed a comfortable shoe, I will not allow myself to give in to sore feet! These shoes are very easy on my feet and the toe box is ample...plus the mint is a great and different color. I did have to exchange them for 1/2 size larger.

Wow! Seldom do I find a pair of new shoes that I put on and wear the rest of day in complete comfort. I have worn New Balance and Asics in the past, but New Balance shoes are just getting too heavy and Asics are very comfortable, but not enough back support for me. From now on I will buy only Saucony as they fill all of my requirements! This is my first pair, and they have converted me 100%. Wearing is believing! Amazing comfort, good back support. Nice touch to include shoe laces in 3 colors so you can decide which color you want; have never encountered that in shoes before, but it's a very nice customer satisfaction touch. I love these shoes so much that I will be ordering more ASAP! Thanks, Zappos, for bearing with me until I found the perfect shoe.

Best fit athletic shoe I have ever purchased. I have 5 pairs in different colors. I have been buying this style for years. This shoe helped with heel issues due to good support and excellent arch support. Nice size toe area for those of us with toe issues. Can't say enough about the Saucony Original brand. You can't wear them out!

I love the colors of these shoes. As you know, I came from a retail industry, shoes play a big role in this line as we walk around more than nine hours. The insole is super comfortable however the size is neither here nor there as my actual size 3½ UK however surprisingly I an able to fit a 3 UK. I am just in love with these sneakers.

These shoes are so comfortable and fit true to size. I have average width feet. For those who are short they add a little lift. They are the perfect cross between classic retro and cool. I get tons of compliments on my shoes. Something different than your typical running shoe. They look great with jeans and blazer and with any workout attire. Cheers to an amazing show!

I'm a huge Saucony fan and, no surprise, LOVE this newest addition to my collection! They are super cute and SO comfy. I typically wear a size 9 and have a wider foot. Went with my regular size and do find them a little spacious, but not uncomfortably so. I think I could have gone with an 8.5, so maybe size down.

I have worn many Saucony shoes before and this is definitely my favorite so far. As comfortable as the Jazz but more of a sleek, streamlined look. Much more cushioning and comfort than the Bullet. Nice comfort for slightly wider feet like mine.
