Customer Reviews Saucony Grid Excursion TR8

First purchased this shoe 2 years ago because of my Plantar fasciitis and it helped heal it! Now still buy the shoe for support and comfort because I'm on my feet all day. I wear the wide and fits true to size. Love this shoe! Hope they're always available!

These shoes are so comfortable! I have found with all Saucony shoes I have owned that I order one full size larger than my regular size. I will only wear this brand of shoe. This shoe doesn't disappoint!

Love these shoes. I've worn these before though and knew I would like them. No breaking in required; wore them on our trip to CA and hiking in Yosemite. Had to clean them up after and they look like new after scrubbing with athletic shoe cleaner.

I bought these shoes the day before walking a half marathon. I had a similar pair in 9 1/2 (my normal size) but was concerned that with normal foot swelling over such a long walk, they would be a smidge too small. So I bought it in a 10. My friends told me I was crazy and that I would get blisters, but I knew I wouldn't. Saucony shoes are all I have worn for the last 10 years. These shoes are comfortable and good looking and I didn't get blisters. I recommend them highly.

I sent a request for a shoe recommendation, explained how I wear the shoe, etc. I was recommended the shoe & I absolutely love it. Have always wore Nike but think I have found a new favorite. In our world of poor customer service, Zappos continues to amaze me at how they service their customers.

This shoe fits comfortably with plenty of room for your toes. While some shoes have a hard sole which jars painful legs and/or back, this one has a nice soft sole and a cushioned heel. I'm not a fan of mostly black or mostly white shoes so gray color was nice but still a little dark for my taste.

I absolutely love this shoe. I have another Saucony hiking shoe, which I also loved, and these shoes felt like I was walking on a cloud from the moment I put them on. I can't say enough how comfortable they are. I am looking forward to hiking with them next week. I have been wearing them to break them in, just to be safe, but there was no breaking in period. Nice color too.

I love this shoe! You can definitely tell that the treads are a little beefier than a normal sneaker, but it doesn't make the shoe any heavier. It fits great (I have an 11 1/2 wide toe box) and I fit into the 11 1/2 M with no problem. I just bought another pair because when I love a shoe, it's inevitably isn't available when I need a replacement! Perfect for my job that puts me on my feet all day!

I broke my right distal fibula (outside of the ankle) and my foot was still swollen even after the break healed. None of my sneakers fit, except for my oldest, stretch-out pair. I bought these because they were offered in wide widths and looked like they would provide good support. It was a good purchase - they fit, provide support and as a bonus, they look relatively nice. My only negative would be that they are a bit of a heavier sneaker than I usually would wear plus I do like more brightly colored sneakers!

These shoes are very comfortable. I walked and ran with them straight out of the box and they were extremely comfortable. Saucony has always fit me better than Nike. These are NOT for underpronators (supinators). I underpronate, and within two months of wearing these everyday, I felt the outside soles of the shoes getting worn, as well as the outside of my feet getting tired and bearing too much weight. Lesson learned for me; I have to read the shoe descriptions more carefully to buy shoes for underpronators. Otherwise, for those that do not underpronate, these are great shoes. They are highly recommended.

I left Saucony, briefly -- for another sneaker brand. It was the biggest mistake. I quickly returned to Saucony and my feet have been happy ever since. My favorite thing about Saucony is their noticeable arch support. This prevents foot pain from longer runs. I prefer the trail sneakers because of the stiffer and grippy tread which provides great suspension to the heel, so no vibration felt up through the ankle or knee. I find this shoe to be comfortable and stable on my foot; and though the arch support is not as prominent as in other Sauconys I've owned, my feet feel good when run in these.

As a first time Zappos customer, I'm beyond thrilled to have found shoes that fit my tiny tootsies, as it can be a challenge to find my size (5 to 5.5). These Saucony Grid Excursion TR8 shoes are not only a perfect fit, but they're comfortable and attractive, as well. I got these shoes to wear for work -- I'm on my feet at least 8 hours per day -- and these shoes offer great support and comfort. They've also been great for walking and hiking. Now that I've discovered the great service from Zappos, I don't plan on ever stepping into (pun intended) a shoe store again!

I purchased these shoes post bunion surgery in size 7.5W and words cannot describe how comfortable they are. I walk a lot and the toe box gives me sufficient room to eliminate any rubbing of the toes. The sole is great for walking in snow!

I have bunions and this is literally the only running shoe that does not cause pain over the top of my foot. The sole is a little lighter than I like, but finding these was practically a lifesaver and they're incredibly comfortable. I actually got them at a shoe store but I'm ordering a second pair from Zappos. Thank you Saucony!

Really comfortable and light weight. I wear these for everyday use, and I really love the rubber outsoles as it feels like I'm walking on air. I love this pair of shoe.

Okay, by no way am I a runner so I can't comment on that. But as a Saucony lover, I purchased this off of a previous review, but I probably should have returned. I'll keep this for my everyday-out-and-about shoe. It's very comfortable to get around in running errands and probably will be great if I'm out hiking. This shoe is a little bulky and heavy for me when doing plyo workouts or a lot of jumping/stepping. For weightlifting, great support, a sturdy shoe, especially doing squats and such.

These shoes are perfect for wearing at work all day. I'm a preschool teacher and need to be able to move with ease and feel supported. I do need to add in soles to these to get better support, but they are holding up very well otherwise.

I so wanted to LOVE this shoe because I like its look in the fucshia/black/orange. And its look didn't disappoint; however, I am so disappointed in the lack of support. Little to no arch support. Saucony seems to be the only brand of athletic shoe I can wear, and I'm trying 3 pairs right now. But I don't think the Grid Excursion TR8 is going to make the cut. Cushioned sole and GREAT look in this color combination, but it's the lack of general support, arch in particular. As always, overnight shipping and stellar service from Zappos!

It feels like there's no cushioning or support. When I buy new sneakers I want them to feel cushion-y when I first put them on and start walking around. These didn't feel that way at all - these felt like New Balances - which is exactly why I never buy NB.
