I hate leaving this review. Literally makes me sad to leave a not so stellar review of Saucony Guide 13, but these are NOT like other Guides :( I have been a faithful Guide wearer, my personal fav was Guide 9. The last Guide OSI was meh but do able, but this Guide is a no go. The ankle support and cushion is weird in the back, so I really hated walking in them. Also changing the foot sole from the ever run was a bummer. This new “form fitting” is not working for me and my runs. The arch was weird in this shoe. I didn’t even want to take these out for a run let alone try them for 30 days. Really bummed. I’ve been a die hard Saucony wearer for 13 years... I don’t know where to turn! I’ve tried Brooks and ASICS and have always gone back, but now, what do I do? Please go back to older styles Saucony!!! Pros: felt true to size and toe bed was still nice and wide for swelling when running.

These are awful! They fit really weird in the heel. They look cheap too! I have Saucony Ride 10 and was really hoping these would be similar.

These shoes are so comfortable. Many other reviewers said the shape was odd, but if you like a wide toe box this is your shoe. I ordered 1/2 size up from my normal size and it fit perfect. However, the color is not as described. I ordered the sky grey/coral. It is not grey at all, it is more of a sea foam green, than grey. Perhaps Stormy Sky Grey would be a better description.

I first purchased a size 10 but thought these ran a little small so got a size 10.5 and they fit me. I actually returned this item because although they were extremely comfortable - they didnt have enough support for me. I have somewhat flat feet and need sturdier shoes for walking my dog for long periods of time or stability for when I'm working out and doing a lot of footwork/shifting.

As other reviewers have stated, the fit is strange. The back feels like it is cut too low.

I overpronate when running. I run anywhere from 3-13 miles at a time. Usually I wear brooks or ASICS but was told about these recently and decided to give them a try. HIGHLY recommend. I’ve only had them a few weeks now so not sure how long they will last but everything is excellent so far and I would definitely recommend getting them.

I think they were very responsive for aerobic exercise. Nicely cushioned heel. I have a low arch and wide feet. They were recommended on a website for this. I found there was a little too much arch that hurt after an hour of Jazzercise. Also I did order a size up but felt the shoe ran small though ok with a size bigger. The heel slipped a little too much. I think I am going with the Brooks Adrenaline 20 even though the are a little clumsy for dance.

Comfortable and supportive shoes. Super lightweight. Why don’t they make shoes like this in all white. I feel like a traffic cone.

I was looking for stability shoes and these are by far the best ones I’ve found. I can feel the shoe keeping my foot in place, nice wide toe box, back heel has nice cushion. Actually the whole shoe feels nice and cushioned without losing all the responsiveness. I bought these shoes because I have a chronic hip injury and tend to overpronate so I need a stability shoe with a good amount of cushion that don’t make me feel like I’m an old lady or like I’m walking through mud.
I particularly like the upper material because it’s a little stretchier than uppers of other stability shoes and feels more similar to the sock-like upper that I prefer but can’t find in sneakers that also have the level of stability and cushion that I need.
I have not bought previous versions of this shoe so I have no basis of comparison, but I really like these and would buy them again. They run true to size (I wear a 7 in most shoes and a 7.5 in most running shoes).

I am a huge fan of these shoes! I have an on again off again relationship with running. I started running again over quarantine and quickly realized it was time to upgrade from Saucony Guide 2s. I first tried another brand of running shoe that was recommended to me at my local running store and they weren’t working out for me, my balance was off and I was getting blisters. I decided to go back to my tried and true Saucony Guides. I absolutely LOVE the entire mutant color line! I get a lot of compliments on these shoes, they are bright! These shoes give me the perfect amount of support and are perfect for my outdoor runs, walks, and casual wear. I’ve already purchased two back up pairs before the color sells out. Ha! If you’re on the fence about these shoes, my advice would be to go for it!

Size and fit were good. The binding along the top inside of the shoe wore away after only a few weeks of wear. Zappos kindly refunded my money. I do not recommend buying this model of Saucony. I have had other Saucony shoes and never had this problem before.

This is probably the seventh pair of Saucony Guides I have had. Most Guides end up dying on me when the fabric in the heal tears. This latest iteration seems promising, as Saucony has changed the material in the heal. It is now a smooth, stretchy fabric with more slip and more of a cushion. My first two runs in these were great. I knock one star for style because there is only one color available in the wide sizes. I’m glad they offer wide, but always wish I had the same choices as narrow-sized people. A small complaint and I’m hopeful these are the best Guides yet.

I bought these shoes to just wear in the house because we have wood floors and my feet can’t handle the hardness of the floor. They are so comfortable! My feet aren’t hurting anymore, and they are quiet too! The support is average, but enough for my feet.

It’s a great shoe. I have high arches. However one ankle has been sprained many times. The arch is breaking down. The shoes are helping but it’s tough for any shoe.

Best shoes ever!! Love the guides!! I finally bought some of the newer guides. But my 13's are still going strong. I love the support for my pronation.

These are great shoes for running, walking and everyday wear. After getting a total knee replacement, I wore these every day. Cushion really helped with recovery.

These shoes offer a plush ride, even for an overpronator with injury-prone hips. I'm so glad I found the Guides.

I've been running in the guide 13 for years now. My go-to staple shoe. I run 50+ miles a week, and 2-3 marathons a year. I am obsessed with this shoe, and guide 14 was extremely disappointing. Blisters began to form above my heel from the rubbing of the shoe. I really hope they bring this style back!!!!!
