So they are nice, however my feet are wider so they are tight.

The tongue is attached so that it fits like a sock and makes the shoe tight without even tying the laces. Too hard to get on and they feel smaller than they really are. I have an old pair of Kinvara 5 that are fantastic but they ear getting worn out so I thought I would replace them with a similar shoe. That didn't work out so well.

I think this is my tenth pair of Kinvara, that pretty much says what I think of this wonderful shoe!

Not enough support in the foot covering part of the shoe.

100 miles in and they're beginning to rip near the big toe. Disappointed to say the least.

These shoes make my heel hurt for some reason. I have to switch shoes.

I can also confirm that these are fakes. As another reviewer did, I called Saucony and they confirmed that there should be a size tag on the inside of the tongue.

After wearing for the first time, my heal began bothering me.
The second time the shoes began squeaking and my bothered my worse than the first time.
My wife had the same shoe in womens and began squeaking after a week of wearing.

Love the fit and feel of this shoe. I havr about 40 miles logged in the last few weeks that i've had them and the mesh on the inside heel of the shoe tore and is now giving me blisters. Disappointing for my first pair of Saucony shoes that only get used road running.

I run 25 miles a week, shoe is light and durable although knees a little tender, reading reviews these did not need to be worn in, will persist for another 2/3 weeks.

Did not feel up to usual Saucony quality and gave me a huge blister on my left foot.

I have done multiple ironmans and I always used saucony kinvara and I run constantly - so this isn't a review of some coach potatoe that has 1 bad experience - I am so disappointed in saucony with these shoes - they are cheap, no bounce, all they do is over cushion and absorb all your energy the moment your foot strikes the ground - NOW not all saucony shoes are bad and these might be great for a beginning but if you run a lot - STAY AWAY

Kinvara 10s were awesome!! Then Saucony made a narrow uncomfortable shoe and called it the Kinvara 11. Junk! Thanks Saucony

Legs are sore after using this shoe. Have worn them quite a few times and it happens every time I wear them.

I have run in the Kinvara 7, 9, 10 and now the 11. The 10s were excellent. They fit perfectly in an 11.5. I had three pairs of them with 400-450 miles on each pair. Now to the 11s. They are significantly more narrow in the toe box. To the point my 4th toe is being driven into my middle toe. I do not have a wide foot by any means. In two days of running I have put 15 miles on these shoes and all I thought about was how my toes were being crushed. I am definitely not impressed. Why change a shoe when you had something great? These will be getting sent back. I run 60+ mile weeks and I feel my toes will be destroyed if I tried that in these.

I wish they would stop trying to upgrade shoes. The Kinvara 10 was amazing! Great fit, comfortable, durable, light weight. Sizing in Kinvara is way off and I miss the heel support. If it isn't broke don't fix it.
