Customer Reviews Saucony Peregrine 12

My least favourite Saucony and i have probably had 12 pairs. They fit very narrow and just not as comfortable as all my other pairs

Unfortunately I was disappointed. Twice. Had /still have a much earlier version of the Peregrine and it was one of the comfiest shoes I'd ever worn. Ordered the new model - Peregrine 12 - in my normal Saucony size - 7.5M - but it was extremely narrow. I returned it and just received the 7.5W - STILL very narrow throughout and no space in the toebox either. These shoes will also have to go back. I had heard that Saucony significantly changed its classic shoes - apparently not for the best. The service is great, but it's comfortable, quality shoes I want. Now I must find a new brand to wear for my trail running.

I am disappointed with this shoe. The toe box is narrow and long. There is very little cushion in the ball of the foot. I walk 5 to 6 miles a day. When I am done with my walk I am ready to take these shoes off. I have never felt this way with any of my other shoes. I only wear Sauconys.

I have wide feet and it's really difficult for me to find trail runners. The Peregrine wide fits really well width-wise, but the back rise is too high for me and irritates my ankle and Achilles. The rise is significantly higher than my Brooks running shoes (Adrenaline and Ghost). Disappointed to return it. Other than this, it would be my perfect shoe. Saucony, please consider lowering it in the next redesign!

Feels like a racing flat. No cushion. I have medium to high arches and this shoe does not support my arch.

I love Saucony. My favourite trail shoe until this shoe. The colour arrived not as advertised (really really green). The worse part is the high back causes rubbing and blisters - which I have never had an issue with in any of my other trail shoes. The tread is great but the comfort and fit is nothing close to what I have experienced with my previous Saucony shoes.

I've run in this shoe for two weeks, taken it up into the mountains twice and it already feels like it 'run through'. Very little support, which can feel nimble but expect any old ankle injuries to be exasperated. For smaller miles this shoe is ok.

Not made well. They pucker on the sides after one week of wearing.

I really wanted to love these, but unfortunately there isn't enough padding and room in the toe box for my bunions. I usually wear Saucony's Omni shoes for my regular runs, so was hoping to find that same level of comfort with the Peregrines. My search for a comfortable, bunion-friendly trail shoe continues!

I am not a fan of bad reviews, but this is the only option I was given for feedback. This used to be my go-to work shoe and I have purchased about 5 pairs over the last few years. I just purchased a pair and put them on and they are unwearable! I can only assume they changed suppliers - and the sole of this new shoe is awful and the bottom of my heels were hurting after walking around in them for only half a day. I will not be purchasing these again and am sad that my favourite work shoe has been forever changed :(

I loved my Peregrine 11s; however, the 12 is drastically different. I get foot pain after 1 hour of running in them, and in the 11s I could run for 5+ hours with no signs of struggle. Whatever has changed in the two models is making the world of difference, and not in a good way.

I fell in love with Saucony's trail runners two years ago when I first ever tried a pair on and they fit so well and felt so comfortable. It was time to replace my pair recently so I ordered the new peregrine 12, it wasn't comfortable at all compared to the last pair I had, I was super disappointed because the pair I had was the best I'd ever had, but that's ok, I guess it was the first and the last! Not sure what they did to the new upgrade but I don't like it.

The upper of this shoe is flimsy and does not offer much support. The tongue is much thinner than on the 11s and the shoe laces come untied easily, even when tucked in (the lace holder also seems too low on the shoe). I had 2 pair of the 11s, and I do not expect to get as many miles out of this shoes as I did the 11s.

I've been a Peregrine fan for years but the 12s are a disaster. On my first long run, I got blisters on both my heels. I went back to my 11s for a few weeks and tried again ... blisters AGAIN. The new design changed the back of the shoe enough that they now rub so bad. I have maybe 20 miles on a pair of shoes that I can't run in and I'm left trying to find another option that works for me. I'm desperately trying to find women's size 8.5 11s on any site so I can run in an old faithful for a little bit longer.

i have 2 holes in the back heels after only 100 miles of running

MY TOE HURT WALKING - COULD NOT EVEN WALK A WHOLE DAY WITH THEM

I had the Peregrine 11s, which I loved. The Peregrine 11s lasted me nearly 800 miles on the trail. So I thought I'd try the Peregrine 12s next, but they completely split on the sides after just 150 miles/about three and a half weeks of daily use on the trail. I was extremely disappointed. Good trail running shoes shouldn't fall apart after only 150 miles of actual trail running use! Absolutely terrible durability. Would not purchase if you are actually planning to use them for trail running.

I agree with other reviewers that the 12 feels much flimsier and less stable than the 11. I ran a grand total of 15 miles in these and I hate them and am already looking to buy another shoe. The upper feels flimsy and the sole of the shoe feels narrower than older models. I feel very unstable in these. I was a diehard peregrine fan and have been buying them for a long time. Disappointed is an understatement.

These are the worst shoes I have ever had from Saucony. I had a trail run race and about a fourth mile I a blister. By the end of the race, another bleeding blister appeared on my another foot. I am very disappointed with these shoes. I will not recommend these shoes to any of my friends. If I could, I would get my money back.

All I can say is that I was a "Saucony person" for many years, but my last experience made me to switch to another brand. The shoes look much better in pictures than in reality. They are cheaply made, expensive, and I don't see or understand how they protect your toes on the trails. I was very disappointed with what I've get but also with the fact that I had to pay to send them back. No more Saucony shoes for me!
