These sneakers are super comfortable and such a fun color! They are a very bright coral. Exactly what I was looking for. I really wanted coral and not pink and that is what I got! The blue is a nice accent, too. I am usually a 9 or 9½ in running shoes and I got a 9. I should have gotten a 9½ but I will make the 9 work.

I am very happy with these shoes. They have a wider toe box which I like. This style was recommend by a friend and I am very satisfied. I have worn other styles by the same brand and this is a new favorite.

I have been looking for new running shoes for 6 months. These are the fourth pair that I bought after the first 3 made my arches hurt (I have normal arches). These shoes were so comfortable from the first wear. They are my first Saucony and now I'm hooked. I had tried Asics and Nikes before deciding on these based on other reviews.

I bought these to wear to work (I work in a hospital). They look great and are very comfortable. Fit is true-to-size. I would definitely purchase them again.

These are supportive, comfortable and attractive shoes. The color is fun without being too neon. I normally wear a size 9 but always have to size up to a 9½ in Saucony shoes. I am very happy with my purchase.

Love my new kicks. Great fit and comfort from the minute I put them on. I'm a registered nurse and on my feet for twelve hours so comfort is a necessity. The electric colors also go great with my navy scrubs. A worthwhile investment.

Love these sneakers, I need sneakers that are cushy and these are definitely that. I have been wearing Saucony Ride sneakers for many years! I highly recommend them.

I have worn the Ride for a while. I use orthotics so I cannot comment on the arch support. My gait is neutral with a little supination, if that helps. These shoes keep me from getting knee problems and plantar fasciitis. They are great shoes!

Saucony Ride8 finally passed my very strict test. They are comfortable right from the box it feels like barefoot. There is good cushioning, they are padding around my bunions, in the angle of shoe, from top and bottom of my super sensitive toes. These are the only athletic shoes that I can wear after a long search. Even though,they come in wide width, still they are stylish. The best shoes for me is if I do not feel that I am wearing anything on my feet. That means, no rubbing or blisters.
I'd also recommend:
I' preffer Saucony,but sometime get New Balance,which has less padding and cushion around the toes

I like the look of this shoe. I haven't decided if I am going to keep it as it feels short and narrow to me. The jury is still out. I do love the Saucony brand.

I have been running for over five years now and was purchasing Nikes from a local running store. They were extremely knowledgeable, professional and support local road races in the area. They even allow you to run in a hallway prior to you leaving to make ensure that the sneakers are comfortable and are an exact fit. Then I got a Groupon to try a different running store. This store had me get on a treadmill with my shoes off and tracked my gait for several minutes. I tried several brands and the shoes were several sizes larger than what I was normally used to wearing (7½ versus 6) - what a difference it made! My feet did not feel cramped and I was not getting as many blisters at the base of my toes (toe box wider). This is my second pair of Ride 8s as they do not manufacture 7s any longer. I do not go to the running store any longer (too far) as Zappos is my go to store but I love the Sauconys!

I have hard to fit feet (wide and with bunions) and I was hoping these shoes would work in a wide width, since the Asics I have are discontinued. Alas, they are too narrow so they have to be returned.

This is my 2nd order of this brand in gym shoe. They're great fit for my narrow heels & good support for fallen arches. They always feel comfortable!

Okay ladies, let me be honest at 5 foot 9 and 325 pounds I needed a great shoe. I searched and searched and I read the reviews so I decided to buy this shoe. I purchase this shoe in a medium width size 11 it worked out perfect. When I 1st put the shoe on I thought it had to go back. Yet after walking in them for 5 minutes I fell in love. Ladies, these are the shoes.

I love these shoes. They a cushiony and supportive. They work well with my orthotics! I love the color and ordered 2 more pair because I like them so much! I have been doing at least three miles a day while wearing them since I got them in October and they still look as good as when I first started wearing them.

Great comfort and fit! I have plantar fasciitis and this shoe gives me the most relief, Zappos made re-ordering this shoe quick and simple. All I can say is AWESOME, this is my second pair, the worn out ones made great grass cutting shoes.

I've always bought the same Ryka shoe for my wide feet, but the last one scraped my little toe after a few minutes of wear. So I found this Saucony and based on the reviews, ordered it. Great shoe! Fit perfectly out of the box, no break-in time.

I am very pleased with this shoe. I have a wide foot and have been dealing with plantar fasciitis for awhile and wanted a walking shoe with a lot of support. I usually am between a 9 and 9.5 so I ordered a 9.5 wide and it fits great. There is plenty of room in the toe box and good support for my arches. I am very pleased with this shoe so far.

I originally ordered my regular size, but had to exchange them for a half size lager. These shoes were comfortable from the get go. I wore them all day the first day I wore them. I was on my feet most of the day. They felt great with no problems!! I would highly recommend these shoes.

I normally wear size 6.5 or 7. I needed size 7 in this shoe. I'm a power walker and these feel great. I don't even notice they are on my feet. Plenty of cushion. Love them!

These are really comfortable running shoes. There is plenty of width, no squishing of your toes at all. Not as comfortable as Altra but these look a lot better and provide great neutral run support.

I have a very narrow foot with a narrow heel. This is my first purchase of Saucony shoes and I'm glad I did. Light weight and comfortable to wear. they also have plenty of room for my orthodics.

These were my first pair of Saucony running shoes. They were light, fit perfectly right out of the box, no breaking-in needed. More cushion and arch support, and more mature colors (all black or white) would have made these a perfect 5. Still a very good shoe.

I always wear Saucony shoes for exercising because they are the best comfort fit I have been able to find. I wear a size 10 medium in regular street shoes, but I need a 10.5 in exercise shoes. I ordered the 10.5 medium width in this shoe but had to send it back for a wide width as this specific shoe runs narrow. The length seemed true to size but not the width. They are very comfortable, and I walked about 4 miles with no problems the first time I wore them. The mesh in the toe area helps keep air circulating so your feet don't get hot.

Out of 5 shoes, this one fit the best. The toe box is wide and the shoe is cut to the right size. The front feels a bit thin, but overall I am happy with this shoe!
