Customer Reviews Saucony Triumph 20

I have about 50 miles on the Triumph 20s and have found them to be a very sturdy and well constructed shoe; more than capable of holding up the demands of high mileage. Positives: -Soft midsole without being mushy -Forefoot is very stable -Good stack height -Robust amount of tread -Despite a little weight, the shoe rolls nicely for easy/steady miles -The upper and laces have a nice snug fit along with a good heel cup (heel counter). My foot didn't slip nor did I need to re-lace. Considerations Before Purchase: -If one were to use this exclusively as a long run shoe, it may start to feel heavy after the 90min -2HR mark or so (whenever fatigue starts in one'a long run) -In cold weather the foam is just a bit stiff in the forefoot and can feel a little mismatched to the softer foam in the heel.

Love the triumph and keep coming back to them but the colors could use some help. Time and time again the color options are either way too wild or frumpy and boring.

Cushioned yet you can pick up the pace in these shoes. The foam feels springy and softer underfoot than the endorphin speed 3 which has nylon plate. I bought these hoping to use them as my long run shoe for this marathon training block but find them narrower in the toe box than the speed 3 and the upper feels tighter overall, giving me cramps in my feet. They also give me a hot spot at the base of my big toe. Disappointed in the fit for me. Will stick to speed 3 for long runs for now. They are also Not as cushioned as some other max cushion shoes. Will keep them for shorter easy runs and walking around.

soft and supportive, much better than the one I had before

I have been a faithful Triumph wearing walker since before the first Isofits. I LOVE the cushion in the 20's. However, the perfect shoe, is just a bit off this time. I ordered my usual 9.5, (I wear 9 in my other non-Saucony shoes) and the toebox is shorter in height. The length is fine. My big toenail rubs a little in my right shoe. No bueno at the end of a work day. I go back to the 19's the next day with no problem. The styling of the shoe is great. I can always use more colors like the other styles have, though! I do feel like it's a warmer shoe/ not as vented, as my feet are damp at the end of the day. Overall good shoe added to my Triumph collection, just not perfect this time.

I've been wearing Triumphs for several years. They are my "go to" running shoe. The toe box seems even more narrow than the 19. My toes were too tight in the size I've been wearing, so I went up a half a size for the first time because of this. Now I have too much room in my shoe. It feels like my heel is pulling away when I run. If you are a perfect fit size wise, these are great running shoes. The cushion feels nice. I just wish they never messed with the toe box.

I bought this shoe for my long runs only so I could save my speeds for daily runs. Not as much cushion to it as I thought but it was working out. Wearing them mostly on pavement but a couple of runs on small gravel trails too. Not quite sure why but cushion is almost completely gone with only 170 miles. My knees, shins and feet hurt. I'm training for the Toronto marathon and can't afford an injury so I'm going to retire this shoe already! I have another pair so hopefully I can get more mileage from them if not I'll have to find another shoe.

Good cushioning, good for marathon training. I was able to go above 400 miles easily but construction seems sub-par. Ive owned two pair back to back and both had corners of the bottom tread peel off the heel before I hit 100 miles.

Not nearly as comfortable as my Triumph 17's. Padding around the ankle is different. I wish you could purchase older versions, instead of "newer, improved (?)" versions

I like the shoes but the sole on the outside is coming apart.

Great cushioning but I got a constant pain around my big toes even though I went a size up. This did improve after running about 50km. However I am Now getting a tingling pain to my little toes which is sharp. Never had this before.

I have been wearing the triumph 19 for several years. I decided to give the 20 a try. Well, they felt comfortable when I put them on, after walking 3 miles, I realize that the foot bed is narrower on the top front, and they are not nearly as comfortable as My old ones. Happy I kept a couple of pair.

These did not have the waffled bottom that the previous Triumph had. They also seemed narrower than usual.

The shoes are good for slow running. But it is smelly when I opened the box. After a couple of weeks, the smell still exists.

Love the color, but it's not as comfortable in the wide width compared to my other Saucony shoes.

Sadly, I am returning these beautifully colored triumph 20 (tan/blue), cause they are so wide on me. I love the cushioning, color and the toe box is ok , but, the rest of the shoe is too wide:.. I can see a gap at the last shoe lace closest to my ankle. Triumph use to be my go-to shoe for many years and I hope they will again in the future.

They are not as comfy as the last pair of Saucony shoes I had. The insoles are not as soft and my big toes on both feet have hurt ever since I started wearing them. But they are still okay.

These are narrower than past models, so don't work well for me.

Have been running in these both on treadmill and street. Mostly purchased for street running because they are visible and cushioned. Unfortunately they fit funny in the right inside arch near the heel. The left side is fine. Have been tolerating them. Ran about 6 miles yesterday and felt ok. I had absolutely no problems with the previous version. These are also higher drop and typically prefer 4mm like with the Freedom. Guess it's too late to return them so looks like I will deal with the discomfort. Long time Saucony fan though and have a bunch of their shoes.

I loved the color and I love Saucony but I returned these as the toe-box was huge and I felt like I had clown shoes on.

Have done a few runs with otherwise good luck buying saucony online over the years. There foam is so thick under the heel it feels like I'm running on a wedge of Gouda cheese. in other shoes w significant heel to toe angle this made me feel springy, but these i feel like I'm weighed down. Maybe they are too wide laterally? Bummer

I bought these about three weeks ago and have had a chance to wear them. The laces are a bit short so they feel tighter than my previous Saucony. I like the cushion just need to try longer laces. Great brand !

I found the shoes to have so much "bounce" in the heel that I felt off balance.
