Best shoe for me for nearly twenty years. Really works for my high instep. The only running shoe I can wear since my back surgery. I wish you still made the trail model but I'm really relieved that these are available again.

I broke my ankle 4 yrs. ago & I don't have the range of motion you should have. I use an orthotic in my shoe & these sneakers are the BEST shoe I have because they are raised in the back which is what I need. I wore one pair out & had trouble finding them. I was so upset because I tried many other kinds & none were as good as this style of sneaker. I was thrilled when I found them on this website. Hope you keep carrying the Shadow 6000 sneaker for a long time. Thanks- Linda

This shoe is the best. I've bought this same shoe over and over and have not found another shoe that I like as well.

I walk the treadmill everyday. These shoes are great. I have been wearing them for years and on my last order, got 2 pair because I was afraid the shadow 6000 would be discontinued and I would be caught without. Love the wide toe box.

I was diagnosed with M.S. 20 years ago. I have difficulty lifting my left foot and am at risk for tripping. I have tried many shoes and this is the only shoe I can find that I can walk in comfortably and with much more of a sense of security. Please keep making this shoe. I cannot run, but I can walk well and this shoe is a big part of my being able to say this.

I have been running, now walking, in this shoe for over 20 years. I was so upset when I heard it was to be discontinued. So I called Saucony and Road Runner Sports( I live in Costa Rica so I have to order on line) to BEG for it's return. I am one happy customer knowing my feet will remain happy, happy and blister free while I walk in my 15th 3Day 60 mile Susan Komen Breast Cancer Walk. My one wish...a new and exciting color...but I'm not complaining!!!

I have been wearing Saucony Shadow 6000 for almost 20 years and have not found another running shoe that can compare. The shoe is not only comfortable but is very durable.

I have waorn this shoe for years--even though my right big toe gpes through the mesh, they are the only walking shoe I can wear that does not make my back hurt. I also have trouble with my feet and these are the only shoes that don't make them hurt. I am not a spring chicken and comfort takes the lead in my choices. These shoes fill the bill and they even look ok with the hole in the toe! Thanks Saucony for bringing them back.

I have been wearing Shadow 6000 for over 20 years. When it looked like I wouldn't be able to buy Shadow 6000, I tried to find a replacement. I tried shoe after shoe. I had to return them all. There is no replacement for Shadow 6000. Please don't stop making it. We need it.

I have been wearing the Shadow 6000 for MANY years and have never been disappointed. I hope that they will be available for many more years because no other shoe measures up!

Am so happy you still make this model! Have worn this style for more than ten years and it still fits perfectly the first day I put on my new pair every six months. Can't wait until my size is back in stock!

I just purchased 3 pairs in fear of them being discontinued. I have been running in them for 13 years and don't know what I would do if they were no longer available! Keep them alive, please!

Have been wearing this great shoe for many years and I purchased multiple pairs when I found out they have been discontinued. Comfortable, durable and just the right heel height. The lower heel heights on many styles give me leg pain and these are just perfect for me.

I've loved the Shadow 6000 for at least 10 years, probably more, was really upset when it was discontinued, and as soon as it was reissued I ordered more pairs, just in case. It's a terrific shoe, fits well, great cushioning, comes in a wide size, lasts a good 400-500 miles, reasonably affordable. I go through about five pairs a year walking about 40 miles a week on a treadmill at a fast pace, Please don't ever discontinue it.

I have worn the Shadow 6000 for 20 years. Have a number of foot, knee and back issues and this shoe is the only one that brings relief. I have a narrow heel and these fit great. The elevated heels take pressure off my low arch and the heel cushioning softens the foot strike on hard surfaces which hurts my back.

Over the years I have bought other Saucony models, and after trying the others out I used them only for walking. I have always come back to the Shadow 6000. As a previous reviewer said, they do not require breaking in, even before a longish run. Please do not discontinue them!

I have been wearing this shoe to run in for at least 15 years! It is the only shoe I can put on new and know that I can go for a 6 miler! I do not have to break it in with short runs. Now I can't seem to find anyone that has them in stock. What do I wear now. Mine are getting worn out and I need new shoes!

Please keep making these shoes. I have a number of foot problems including plantar fasciitis, and these shoes combined with my orthotics have essentially "cured" my problem. I've worn these shoes for at least 12 years, and I dread having to go through the trial and error of finding a new shoe. So again, please keep making this model!

PLEASE KEEP MAKING THIS SHOE, I HAVE PLANTAR FASCIITIS AND THESE ARE THE ONLY SHOES THAT KEEP IT AT BAY. I WORK IN RETAIL WHICH MEANS THAT I AM ON MY FEET ON CONCRETE FLOORS FOR 9 TO 10 HOURS A DAY. I HAVE TRIED DIFFERENT SHOES AND ALWAYS ALWAYS COME BACK TO THE SAUCONY 6000. i JUST BOUGHT THE LAST 3 PAIRS OF SIZE 8 MY LOCAL SHOE SHOE HAS. PLEASE DON'T QUIT MAKING THIS SHOE, EVEN OTHER STYLES OF YOUR OWN SHOES DO NOT DO THE JOB OF THE 6000.

Please bring this shoe back. I need the wide width, and I can't find another pair that fits comfortably. I order 3 pairs of these per year, and now can't get them.
