Customer Reviews Saucony Guide 13

These are nice and stable shoes. Plenty.if room in the toe box. I run.on asphalt so need a well- cushioned shoe. This meets the criteria completely. An exceptionally minor feature is the color. I wanted a dark color to shed the stains, which the Berry color does. I would have preferred a better color selection. Overall a solid shoe for me and how I run. Highly recommend this Saucony.

I ordered wide width, however; the fit is tight and it doesn't accommodate bunions.

I love saucony shoes, the only thing I have bad to say is the selection on the wide Shoes , they suck on colors!! I hate having to get be limited on my choices and having to wear the same color.

I was very happy with the Guide 7 and Guide 8 with no break-in period, so I didn't hesitate to buy the Guide 13 online without prior try-on. Unfortunately the redesign seems slightly narrower than the previous versions, resulting in blisters at the side of my big toe joint, and uncomfortable pressure at the top of my arch even laced looser. Has improved with wear, but the earlier Guide versions required no break-in at all. Note on sizing, in street shoes I am usually a 7 but sometimes a 7.5 depending on brand. In Saucony shoes I am a 7.5 which is why I selected runs 1/2 size small.

I've purchased wide width for about 3 pairs of shoes now. I've noticed the roomy fit helps with my gait. Aging has definetely changed my shoe size! I run about 20-25 mi. per week and weigh about 140. My super high arches need the support of Saucony so this particular shoe is one I use for runs 4 mi. or less.

Saucony Guide shoes are always my choice, as I need a stabilization shoe that is light and comfortable. The Guide 13 doesn't disappoint, and continues to be supportive and light. The only thing I didn't like is that the color I picked seems to be a bit off. I ordered a shoe that was black with dark magenta laces but the shoe appears to be a deep purple instead.

very comfortable shoe

I wear a 5.5 wide, but it's still not wide enough. I want to stay with the Glide any suggestions?

I am a 6.5 and maybe should have ordered a 7. Snug at the toe. The sole is pretty soft... more cushioned than thought a "medium" would be.

I only had the shoe out of the box for a few minutes and slipped one on to check fit. Size was good. Seems to have very large toe box if that is something your looking for. Well made. My issue was the color. I needed fairly neutral for work. The color looked grey on site but in person was mint green to sea foam green so had to go back.

I wear an 8.5 in most shoes, but my size in Saucony running shoes is a 9. So, when I read all the reviews to buy a size up, I figured I'd be safe with my usual 9. I was wrong. These shoes are extremely comfortable. They are better than the last ones I bought a couple years ago, so I'm 90% happy. But sometimes my toe hits the front. It wasn't something I noticed until I was on a walk or I would have sent them back for larger size.

I only wear Saucony and recently have had to buy wide width for comfort and arch support. The wide width in this style is not as wide as the ISO Guide model, so I had to return this.

Support for heel is similar to ISO 2 Guide. Toe box is narrower which keeps the fit from being perfect.

I almost always buy Saucony brand because my feet are a little wide but not wide enough for wide sizes. I love the look and feel of these shoes, and the beautiful blue color. My only complaint is that my feet get uncomfortably hot in them compared to the mesh fabric that was popular a few years ago. Can't wear them all day for that reason. Switch to my old ones for hanging around. Too bad.

I enjoy running and walking in the Saucony Guide 13. I have worn Saucony for the past several years. It provides good cushion and support. I was very disappointed in the color. The website advertises grey/coral but the grey is not really grey. It's more of a putrid green. The color combination is pretty off-putting as soon as you take them out of the box. I went online to see if I could do an even exchange for a different color as soon as I took them out of the box. Unfortunately, Saucony has a no exchange policy. If I were to return the first and buy a separate color, I would have paid more because I used a Memorial Day coupon code to purchase the pair. I would encourage Saucony to revisit their exchange policy for shoes that are not even worn. Thank you!

I wear an orthotic and it fits fine in these shoes.My second pr. I did order 1/2 size larger cause my feet swell.Im in a wide, fits true to width sz. My feet are hard to please lol, but I feel they like the comfort of the guide. I like saucony brand the best and my feet do too!

I love the snug support around the heel. Helps with my stability.

description says color is grey but looked minty green to me. Not pretty.

I am a loyal Saucony Guide wearer. As a flat-footed over-pronator with a bunion, I wear orthotics but still need a little stability. Despite changes through the years, this model has never done me wrong! However, is it me or does this model seem to have a more narrow toe-box? Same great quality and general fit I have come to expect but this model feels a little snugger in the forefoot. But maybe it's just the worsening of my bunion issue.

The new version looks amazing and feels great under the foot, but the forefoot is more narrow than the last ISO version. I have an insert for my right foot and wearing it in these has caused some blisters because the fit is tighter. I also never thought I'd say this, but I liked the "attached" tongue in the previous models better now that I'm running with the "loose" tongue again. It slips frequently and I find myself adjusting it at red lights. I know I would have had to buy the update eventually, but I find myself wishing I'd purchased an ISO Guide instead.

Shoe fits well overall, very comfortable and well-cushioned. My one complaint is that the back of the shoe is very low at the heel, to the extent that it can slide off completely with a bit of force, making the fit feel substantially less secure. Guide-9's are still my holy grail running shoes, but these are a close second.

I have a difficult time finding shoes to fit me. My feet are narrow & I usually need to wear two pairs of socks to make them comfortable. Now I only have to wear one thick pair of socks. This is my third pair of Guides, I'm very happy with them, comfortable, good balance, arch support, a quality product. Thank you for keeping the fit on the narrow side. Native Tucsonan

I had never tried Saucony shoes before the Guide 13, but I wanted to see what the new Powerrun foam was all about. Some things I experienced was that first, it took longer to break in the shoes than I thought- the first 20 miles I felt like the cushioning was too firm and I felt awkward running in the shoe however once I put more miles in them they felt amazing and I now think they have a great balance of cushion and responsiveness! I also experienced heel slipping in the first few runs, but I have since laced them using the runner's knot and it has fixed the issue. The padded heel counter has been great for when I had Achilles pain because it does not rub on the tendon. Overall, this is a pretty versatile trainer and I find myself reaching for it for a majority of my runs. It's been such a good go-to shoe that I've already ordered a second pair.
