Customer Reviews Saucony Guide 10

Finally, a neutral, non-obnoxious color scheme from Saucony! I loved the fit and performance of my Guide 8s a couple years ago, but the color choices were awful, so I switched to ASICS. Now that the Guide 10 offers an appealing neutral color, I gave the Guides another shot. These work well for my minor over-pronation and are now my go-to shoes for all my runs.

Felt a little tight, will need a breaking in period.

I have been wearing Saucony Guide running shoes for about 10 years. I wear a size 7 in regular shoes, but have always ordered 7 1/2 in the Guide to allow a little extra length for running. I ordered my last pair about 6 months ago in 7 1/2 and they were same as always. I ordered this pair in 7 1/2 and they were too small. Had to go up to an 8. I would recommend going up a full size.

I wear an 8.5 in running shoes but these were too small. Need to order a size up. The medium width has lots of room in toe box, even for someone who usually orders wide shoes.

These shoes are very nice. Comfortable and great colors.

This was the first Saucony running shoe I have ever bought. While I really liked the style and support and there was something just "off" about it for me. I run about 25-30 miles a week and ended up getting blisters/sores on the outer edge of both of my big toes. I sized up my usual 1 whole size which I normally do for running shoes and they fit well. I think the shoes are made really well they just weren't for me.

I was on the hunt for shoes for walking that are good for Plantar Faciitis. These are nice looking shoes and are very comfy and supportive! I was torn between these and the Brooks Launch 3. In the end I went with the Brooks simply because they felt lighter and less clunky.

Nice shoe. Blue is very bright. Plenty of room in toe box but too short.

I ordered these in my normal size 8 as I wear a lot of Saucony and never had size problems. This shoe in my regular 8 felt short and tight across my toes. Ordered a half size up and the material on the tongue all bunched up. Sigh...they are really cute and comfy but these Sauconys are just not for me.

This shoe fit me way better than the Guide 9. The toe box is bigger in these. I do not have a wide foot, but need the room when running

The shoes were comfortable but the colors were terrible. Shockingly bright they were almost painful to look at. Returned them.

No arch support and I felt my foot moving outward instead of being stable. Very flat cushioning, too.

Usually Saucony 7.5 Wide fits me well. These have a narrower toe box than my previous two pairs. I returned them. They weren't terribly too narrow, but just narrow enough that I did not want to risk keeping them and regretting it.

I was very disappointed with this shoe. I've worn these shoes for years and could always count on them, but these were not comfortable. The heel fit was excellent, but it felt like there was no, or little, padding under the ball of my foot and my toes went numb. I tried adjusting the laces, nothing worked. I wish I could return them, but I wore them outside once.

I've been buying the same size Saucony's for years, but for this one I'm having to return my normal size and go up a full size!

Wanted a replacement for the Redeemer, thought this would be it. Very disappointed. Shoe support is just ok, but very little contact padding and I feel every step.

Pretty but not comfortable. Soles are way too stiff and hard. Made my ankles and arches hurt right away. Soles are hard and clunky. Returning

Too bulky for my taste

I have loved wearing Saucony shoes for years and have had several pair of Guide 8. These new Guide 10 feel much smaller! Unfortunately I did wear them outside since I was excited to have a badly needed new pair. Not sure if sizing up would help the too narrow feeling. Very disappointed!!

As an owner of the Guide 9s, I was very disappointed in how narrow these run near the toe bed. Unfortunately I will be returning and going to my local running store for a better fit.

These shoes are so tight and narrow. Second pair of shoes from Saucony I had to return because of same issue. Disappointed

I've been wearing and loving the Saucony Guide 9. The Guide 10 is nothing like the 9. It's cut so much more narrow, and the volume (height above the foot) is also much smaller. I tried on my same size (8.5) in a Wide, and it was still much, much too small. Not sure why they changed the fit that much, but I am getting New Balance instead.

I have a wide foot with a narrow heel, and Saucony has been my go-to running shoe for decades. They keep discontinuing the shoes I like, but I can usually find another that will work. This shoe, however, is tight across the ball of my foot. Also, the top of the heel comes in uncomfortably around my achilles tendon, and yet the heel is too loose, so my heel slips causing the shoe to rub along the sides of my tendon. The sole of the shoe is also unusually stiff. I didn't keep these on my feet long enough to evaluate the support. They immediately went back in the box and back to Zappos.

This shoe didn't work for me and felt like it tilted my foot awkwardly. I typically love Saucony shoes and have worn the Guide 6 and Guide 7 through many miles of running and walking but this latest version felt very different. They provided an energetic stride but tended to angle my foot in such a way that my knees and hips ached just trying them out in the house. I am finding myself frustrated with most of the newer Saucony models - less cushion and softness then before where I felt like I was walking on a cloud. Perhaps it is just that I am 65 and my feet have less padding but still I am slender, have a narrow foot, only need shoes for walking, and I generally have no problems with fit as long as there is good arch support. I hope the Saucony reps read these reviews. I finally found a place that still had the old Guide 8 and that is what worked for me.

I don't understand who designs the aesthetics f these. I ordered these because they are rated well for plantar fasciitis, hoping that I could get over the hideousness but they are just. too. ugly. Argh. Foot pain AND ugly shoes? Why does aging have to come with a double whammy?
