Customer Reviews Saucony Echelon Walker 3

I walk over 12 miles a day as a USPS letter carrier and these are by far the best walking shoes I have ever owned. (And trust me, I've tried at least 10 other brands and styles) The best! Worth every penny!

I've tried all types of shoes (running, walking, training, law enforcement, referee, etc) while on my job and these are imo the best for the price/performance! I had to break mine in for a couple of days before the shoes got really comfortable(I have other shoes for rotation) but once they become comfortable, these are my go-to shoes. Very rugged design, good grip soles, no sweaty feet after all day wear. A great buy!

I have planter fatiatus and need a great shoe like this. My last one is a year old and I wanted a second pair. I wear this shoe every day and it is still going strong. My other Brooks pair would have had the toe rubber separating by now but no such problems on the Saucony. You have a customer for life and I have told others what a good shoe this is. Unless you start going cheep and making a shoe of less quality. Don't let the bean counters convince you that you can make more money by cutting on quality. Customers WILL notice and soon you will be like Converse.

This shoe has the fit I need my hard to fit foot that's wide in toes and narrow in heel with a regular width shoe. Very sturdy and very stable.

Pretty comfortable shoe. Good for neutral gait and protects from putting weight on lateral part of the foot which is more prone to injury, especially in underpronaters. Pretty of room due to wide platform and walking is natural just with added comfort. There is no squeeze to any part of foot. It is better looking than usual chunky comfort leather walkers. I wear about 10 hrs a day, walking up and down, used so far for 2 weeks and so far doing great. Only downside, it is a hot shoe which is expected with all leather and lot of cushion.

Why can't you ever get it correct. . o.k. I'll tell you. MAKE THE FRONT OF THE FOOT WIDER FOR MEN SHOES. GOT IT? That WAS NOT SO HARD, WAS IT? You ARE NOT OFF TO A GOOD START. I HAD EXPECTED YOU WOULD MAKE A RETURN TO SUPPORTIVE RINNING SHOES. ANOTHER YEAR OF NONSENSE. tHE MERRELL COMPANY JUST THINKS YOU ARE THE GREATEST. YOU HAVE INCREASED THEIR SALES THROUGHT THE ROOF. - JAKESEY

...I'm sure the shoes are fine; maybe there's a problem with my feet... I cant seem to find any shoe that works well for me EXCEPT a pair from the business with the Spark nailed to the side of the building. Go figure that one. I certainly didnt have a problem with the Saucony in my youth, but these days, I just don't know.

I like the leather because it forms to your feet and I can walk the dog in the rain without wet feet. The shoes could be a bit wider in the toe area but I liked how deep the toe area was from the top of the shoe to the sole, so my foot didn't feel flattened. I was extremely disappointed with the hard sole. After wearing them for 1/2 hour the balls of my feet feel bruised. I got the Echelon 9 xw with the running sole and those are extremely comfortable. I wish Saucony would incorporate the cushion of the Echelon 9 sole into this leather walker and it would be perfect.

Still narrow in the toes with WIDE so I had to buy a second pair in EXTRA WIDE, to no pinch the toes, but all around it feels a bit like clown shoes. The thick sole is a bit weird, makes me feel like I'm wearing platform or high heels, got plenty of blisters. I will say though, the construction is top notch, both the leather and the rubber sole are pretty durable.

purchased 9 months ago, they are very comfortable, would purchase again

I've been looking for something that I can wear for 8-10 hours of walking with no pain by the end of work shift. This is it! I've been more productive and efficient with these shoes. Feels like walking on clouds.

Great shoe. I'm a delivery driver for Ups, I put a lot of miles on my shoes this is the best that I have worn. I highly recommend the Echelon walker 3.
