Customer Reviews Saucony Guide ISO

I have been in a Saucony for three years now. Starting with the Guide 9. I ran those out so recently purchased two pairs a few months back. I purchased the Saucony Guide 10 as well as this ISO. I was fitted for the Guide 9 as my first and decided to buy these on a whim at the outlet. Fortunatley they still fit the same! I purchased the 10 as my running shoe, and ISO as my walking. My 10 I purchased a half size larger for running purposes, as I had done before, however ISO I kept as my normal size. I could not be happier taking the leap to have my ISO as my outdoor running shoes. I severely broke my ankle 5 years back, and have gained quite a bit of weight in the past year. Getting back to running has been a challenge for my ankle, however I love it, so I continue to run. I run outside in the ISO's and my feet do not hurt one bit! I always thought the feet aching at times were normal, because typically they would. I have never once felt achy feet in my ISOs. I have run in asics, brooks, and nikes. I continue to run in Saucony.

It's been a decade since I've been on a run for fun. I started coaching track again, and have embarked on a journey to run once again. My first running shoes ever were Saucony so I was partial to the brand. These shoes were fit for me at a local specialty running shoe store. They highly recommended them for my pronation, and getting back into the groove of running. Every run I've taken since purchase have been great. My feet have remained comfortable, and my shins haven't flaired up yet. Here's to training for a 5k!

This is such a comfortable but light shoe. It gives plenty of support and it feels like stepping on clouds whenever I wear these!

I have Plantar Fasciitis and very high arches. This shoe fits like a glove. I also roll in and this provides perfect stability.

I am a runner, jogger and walker. I absolutely love this shoe. I have been happy with the Guide since my very first Guide 3. The ISO is very comfortable giving a very stable feel without the stiffness. It's is light and flexible. I prefer this shoe over the Guide 8, 9 and 10. The best Guide ever! I will purchase other colors.

I've had these shoes for a week now and based on my experiences, Saucony has more than adequately addressed all of the issues with the Guide 10. The toe box is plenty roomy, the shoe does not run narrow thanks to the ISOFIT technology and it's got the perfect amount of cushioning from heel to toe. Today was the first time in a long, long time that I was able to complete a long run with no discomfort whatsoever. It was like coming back to an old and dearly missed friend. I am not a paid endorser - just a long time Guide wearer who skewered the 10s pretty badly in a previous review. This latest version is definitely worth checking out. Unless you don't like purple (the only color currently available), you likely won't be disappointed.

The heels are higher than previous models. I can't wear my really short socks without rubbing my heels raw.

The shoes are quality made - love them, but measured 1\2 inch longer than another pair of the same shoes. Unfortunately I return the shoes.

Love the Guide's for pronation control. The Guide ISO fits wider than previously.

I hadn't bought a pair of Guide's in quite some time so I finally bought a pair, LOVED THEM and then bought a second pair and they aren't as comfortable... feels like there is a bulb under the toe but I have worn them outside so I can't return them. Argh...

In the middle of my training for my 50 miler I needed new shoes and as normal I went to go get what I was currently wearing at that time but come to find out those shoes were no longer being sold. This put me in a horrible situation. The next 3-4 weeks trying out different shoes caused me so much grief. My legs have some mechanical issues, my feet pronate, my right leg slightly turn in medially and I have bunions. This Shoe the Guide ISO was the last shoe I tried and that is it! I have been able to run with without shoe related issues! Before this shoe I would encounter great pains in my feet around mileage 22-27. After the break in period ( which I would say is around a couple weeks. Took a couple weekend longs runs to feel broke in) the bottom of my feet didn't hurt nearly as bad as they have in the past after running a marathon. The toe box is bigger than most but for me I would still like the box a little bigger. My feet feel really supported and my wear pattern is more consistent after wearing these shoes compared to my previous shoes. I ended up buying 4 pairs. The color selection is blah and boring but I have learned that color is my last importance. Still wouldn't mind to have some green and blues to brighten up the day :) Because I have had such great success with these Guides I am now going to go ahead and purchase the trail version!!

My previous running shoes (which I really use as more of a walking shoe) were Saucony Guide 8s, which I ordered on a whim a couple years ago and love. Now, almost four full years later, they are finally wearing out. These Guide ISO shoes are my second go with Saucony recently. As another reviewer mentioned, they are a bit firmer than others in the Guide collection, but they still feel comfortable and sturdy. My one complaint is with the toebox...it feels a little restrictive on the toes sometimes, but I probably need to break them in a bit more. The outer mesh feels a bit thin as well, I hope the exterior is tougher than it seems. All in all, this is a good shoe from a good company, at a pretty good value! It's not exactly the same as the Guide collection but that's because they've added new innovations and small things.

Always enjoy running in my Saucony shoes! The Guide ISO is super comfortable and has great room in the toe box. Happy to run miles in these shoes.

I find these shoes very nice. Good support on my heels. I wore them right out of the box. Feet feel good in them

This is my first purchase of a guide iso and I just love how comfortable this shoe really is. I run several miles a day and my feet are not tired at all. I would recommend the Guide ISO. I'm gonna purchase another pair.
