These shoes are comfortable, but don’t have as cushioned a feel as the Endorphin series. They also don’t “roll” forward like the Endorphins. The color is great. Overall the quality is what I have come to expect from Saucony.

They are great but when I bought them I didn't realize they would look so blah. From picture thought they were a little more colourful. Like them , they feel great but I look like an old old person very very pasty grey

I started buying the Echelon 6 several years ago. I've kept with the Echelon series from the 6 to the 7 and onto the 8. I'm a casual runner with wide feet and these shoes are great!!!

This is really the best option if you need a shoe with a wide midfoot. It's got a straight last and accommodates low arches well. I wish it were a bit more responsive. Nonetheless, I come back to this shoe year after year because of the fit.

The echelon 8 wide is a wonderful shoe! The cushion in this shoe is outstanding. I have very flat feet. This shoe is perfect for my flat feet. Thanks for the comfortable ride.

The design gives me the comfortable arch support without the wedge sole. That's cured my ankle pain from other designs. Literally changed my life

Fits too narrow for a wide. I've been wearing Saucony for over 20 years & this is the first time I've had a problem with sizing. Very disappointed.

It runs a little wide but it's perfect for custom insoles!! I've run in Saucony Triumphs for many years, so this shoe feels a little big compared to the Triumph. But it's super comfy and I go on walks in them everyday!

These sneakers do an excellent job of accommodating orthotics. However, even the medium was too wide for my feet, and I need to return them. These would work great for someone with a wider foot.
I also want to say that Zappos is fantastic for shipping shoes quickly and allowing free returns. 4 stars for the shoes, but 5 for Zappos!

This is my second pair of Saucony shoes. I wear orthotics and it has been very difficult to find casual walking /running shoes that don't end up hurting my feet, but these fit the bill. They are stable, comfortable, and attractive. I'm quite happy with my purchase.

I'm on my third pair of echelons. Very comfortable shoes and supports me well. I have had the same problem with each pair. At less than a year old the inside heal material rips and the foam stuffing begins to come out. For the price of these shoes one would expect them to be better built to be for durable.

Im 46 yo and terribly out of shape. I used to run cross country in high school. I was the middle of the pack kind of runner. I never won a medals or a trophys. That was a long time agobut I always ran in Sauconys. Here I am 30 lbs heavier and Ive been reinspired to get back into shape again , one step at a time. When you have been away from running for a long time, it is a little painful to get back into it. However, this shoe has made it easier for me to do so. It's lightweight constructions and breathing able fabric keep my feet from heating up. The cushioning is fantastic as I feel like I'm running on a bouncy track. I like them so much that I use them at work. I"m a healthcare worker and spend 12 hours on my feet per shift. If you're a regular joe who is trying to get back into running after a long hiatus, this is the shoe for you. Great job Saucony.

Great shoe! I chose it because of the wide sole under the arch.

I would have ranked 7 as the most comfortable shoe I have ever had. I rank these 8 as the most uncomfortable. Why? The mid foot has been redesigned to be firmerthis is unbearably painful for my flat feet. The heel and forefoot are more cushioned, which means I sink into the firm mid foot which makes me screech in pain. I had travelled a considerable distance to get these 2 paid so I am now out close to three hundred dollars. I do not recommend these for wide flat feet.

THESE ARE THE ONLY SHOES I CAN WEAR! I played four years of college basketball which ruined my feet, so now I wear custom orthotic's. I went through every name brand trying to find a shoe that allowed orthotic's and give me comfort...finally found Saucony and my search is over. Try them, you won't be disappointed. A very comfortable shoe to wear at my age (80).

After surgery these are the only shoes I have found with a big enough toe box for comfort. Good solid shoe.
