Customer Reviews Saucony Omni ISO

I really like these shoes! I bought the Omni’s and the Hurricanes at the same time and the Omni’s win hands down in comfort, cushion and support! My left foot has osteoarthritis and the wider toe box and cushion are very important for me. As with all running shoes, I size up a full size and the fit is perfect. I use them for cardio equipment including treadmill, stepmill and elliptical. Oh—and the blue/pink color is awesome! Love them!

I've been wearing Saucony Omni shoes for about 6 years now. I replace when needed with whatever the current Omni model is at the time. They offer great support and help with my overpronating (along with Superfeet inserts). I started wearing them as running shoes but have found them great for walking too. For past versions, I gave them 5/5 stars. This new version is slightly inferior, unfortunately. The top (now made of a new material), is now narrower and less forgiving. It pinches my toes and the outsides of my feet, especially at the end of a long walking day (which is what I need this kind of shoe for). The laces are significantly shorter, also, which means that I can't let them out. I don't technically need wide shoes, or so say the past few shoe salespeople who have actually measured my feet, but I do find that I like more toe box room, as my metatarsals do need to spread out a bit. So the new narrowness in these shoes may not bother everyone as much as it bothers me. I kept these shoes anyway and have been wearing them almost daily (lots of walking) for a few months, so I can confidently say that the material does not stretch out or break in with time. They're still pretty good, but they do really pinch sometimes, and I'm back on Zappos right now looking for something better. My last pair of Omni's were absolutely perfect, so I'm saddened by this change, although they're still probably going to be a good shoe for a lot of people.

It took me awhile to try these on. They looked a little narrow from the get go, but knowing that shoes stretch I put them on and wore them to the gym. I bought 1/2 size larger for length than my Omni 15 shoes. That worked out great. My feet started going to sleep and tingling at the gym. I loosened the laces. Better. But after coming home and keeping these shoes on my feet for the next 5 hours I pulled them off in pain due to the width. These are definitely not as wide as my size 6 Omni 15 shoes. They are going on back tomorrow. The sides of my little toes felt like I had just pulled off a pair of tight dress shoes. Ouch!!!! The color selection did not wow me either. Navy was the best of the two. It was ok. I may try Brooks or New Balance again. Saucony lost me on this width.

I have a wide forefoot with arthritis and it is difficult to find shoes that fit. These fit me well. Also I really like the fabric.

Have been wearing New Balance running shoes for 30 years but tried these and am sold. Comfortable from the jump, I got wide to be sure my orthotics fit...perfect. On style, they're nice...I do wish all brands would get away from bright white soles. White just doesn't stand up to street dirt and trail crud.

Very nice looking shoe! Love the colors. As always with Saucony running shoes, I size up 1 full size and the length and width are perfect for my somewhat wide feet. I use these for workouts on cardio machines , including treadmill, stepmill and elliptical and they are very comfortable with great support.

I have worn Saucony Omni for years because the foot bed is a little wider than other brands and other Saucony styles. Due to age and arthritis my foot is slightly wider across the front of my foot. The heel is slightly wider as well but with proper lacing, the heel tightens up. I tried the Saucony Hurricane in "wide" and they were nice at first but stretched out to be way too large and my foot just slid around. in the shoe. I think I need to stick with the Omni in medium width.

First impression: Saucony Omni ISO shoes are VERY cushy and comfortable, esp. compared to the Saucony Omni Pro Grid 7 I am wearing from about 10 years ago - the last time I was into running and triathlons. My shoe size is 5 so I sized up a half size and the fit seems perfect but I'm concerned about the shoes being too short (unusual problem for someone with petite feet). I ordered a size 6 so one or the other will be returned after I determine which size offers the best fit. Since the shoes are recommended for over-pronators, I expect to be able to run in them w/o experiencing painful shin splints that always plague me with the wrong shoes.
