This is my third pair of Saucony Kinvaras. They are my go to road shoe. The balance of cusion and lightweight is ideal in my opinion. I usually put about 100 miles on them a month, and typically purchase a new pair after 300 to 400 miles. That's when I find the cusion tends to compress a little. I'll even wear them for non technical trails occasionally, and actually just completed my first 50 mile trail race wearing them!

I love these shoes but you need to order a half size larger than your normal size in order to fit perfectly. I was going to return my smaller sized ones after ordering another larger pair but decided to keep them and suffer through because I like them so much!

I really am happy with this shoe! I have always worn plain white athletic shoes and I felt these would add a little variety to my shoe collection. I ordered the white shoe. The silver "stripes" on each side and the shiny strip of material that runs side to side are trendy. The little spots are cute and will surely hide any dirt. Don't be put off by the light blue sole if you like a white shoe. It is so pale as to be hardly noticeable. The standard width of medium is quite ample. All my shoes are size 10.5. My two pair of athletic shoes are 11. I originally ordered this in 11 but had to exchange it for an 11.5. These are very comfortable and well worth the price.

I've worn Saucony for many years and these are the best fit I've ever had. Comfortable from the first wearing!

I started running 5 years ago and the Kinvara was my first real running shoe. I just purchased the Kinvara 9 after almost a year of running in other popular shoes. My first run in the Kinvara again was my fastest mile yet! It's like running on a cloud. They are PERFECT for my high arches!

I love the shoes but had to return them because of the color. I agree with other customers. They were not red! It is hard to describe what color I thought they were. I would say they were sort of a cross between orange and peach.
The shoes were very comfortable and I really liked how they looked. I am going to order the same shoe in another color.

Saucony has always given me the support and durability I need to realize my athletic goals. I am indebted to them for making a quality product that stands the rest of time.

These shoes have been so good so far and they are not completely broken in yet. I love them. Support is a big deal for me because of my arches. These shoes have so much support. The cushion in them helps me have a comfortable stride. I have a feeling that they will last a very long time.

This shoe is great...slightly tight in the toe though. It does not rib my heels for being new, which is excellent!

Love these shoes due to wide toe box and extremely light in weight. These are definitely my favorite marathon shoes!

I love Saucony, they are my go to. Within the past few years, though, I haven't found any that have fit as well as the Mirage's and another model from years before. I actually buy multiple's of the shoes that I find that fit great. I tried these on and I love how toe box. These are amazing. The issue I had with other models is where the Saucony symbol was, where it would push down on toes. This shoe is amazing. I love every single thing about this shoe, so comfortable!!

I've been wearing Saucony for over ten years and even when they have discontinued my favorite style I have been able to jump right into a new one. The Kinvara 9 continues to be a great running shoe.

This is my fourth pair of kinvaras and they are my go to sneaker for a reason. They’re incredibly lightweight but have support that makes you forget you’re wearing a minimalist shoe. They’ve always been great for keeping my feet strong and happy.

I love my Saucony Kinvara 9 tennis! I am glad they are light weight and fit true to size. I enjoy running with them. Zappos is awesome too!

Super cute shoe and was very comfortable. I normally wear a 10, but after reading the reviews, I ordered a 10.5. It was comfortable, but my toe was at the very front of the shoe, and I knew they wouldn't be comfortable for long like that. I will return them for an 11. They are very lightweight and had great support though.

I was a Brooks wearer for three years and marathon training but felt like they were lasting shorter on each set of miles and my foot always was slipping and ties were coming loose. I tried these as an alternative and fell in love. They pound the miles with me but keep me feeling safe and secure. I'm training for my second marathon in them and am very excited. For me the heel runs out first on all shoes and this is no exception but def. feels comfortable and supported throughout my run.

I am absolutely in love with the 9s. The toe box is perfect compared to the 8 which was too narrow. It is great for both speed workouts and long runs (including a 15mi long run!!). It has the perfect amount of cushioning - I wish the color options were more fun, but let's be honest, comfort over color any day! I am thrilled with the 9s, and hope the 10s will be just as awesome!

Im usually a size 7.5 shoe, but size 8 in sneakers. An 8 in these fits well. I was looking for a little more arch support (I have very high arches), and I needed to swap out the inserts for something more supportive, but now they’re great, very comfortable. And they came with an extra pair of laces (to match the accent color).
