Customer Reviews Saucony Guide 16

Super cute, but if you roll your feet outward or have trouble with ankles, don’t go with these…I tried them on and felt like the outside back of my foot was sliding off the sole! They’re plenty wide in the W width, which is awesome. Sole is squishy nice. But something weird is up with the construction!

Great shoe! For those who need the firm, support shoe, these are great. These are much better than the Brooks Ariel 20. They both have 12mm foot drop, keep your ankles where they need to be and support them, therefore your ankles don't hurt or injured. Roomy, good cushion where needed, I am really pleased. I hope my back condition will adapt to the higher foot drop, and does not aggravate it. I wish more support shoes would offer lower foot drop like 6mm and under. I recommend these for anyone who is suffering from feet and ankle pain and collapsed arches. Yes, I have flat feet. So glad for these shoes, I feel protected.

These shoes are incredibly comfortable and the color goes with a wide variety of outfits. I’m a high school teacher, so I’m on my feet on hard floors all day. There is plenty of room for my toes to wriggle, my orthotics fit perfectly, and there is a reduction in my back pain on days I wear these shoes. Bonus: they clean up very well!

I am sure these are great shoes, but I have yet to try on ones that fit. I have been wearing the Guide 15's in size 9. I wear 9.5 in dress shoes and just about everything else, but the 15's seemed to run bigger than other shoes. Perhaps that is what Saucony is trying to correct with its sizing of their 16's. However!! I tried this in 9 and 9.5, and decided next I would try 10.5, since they were still WAAAAAY too small. I just haven't gotten around to that yet. If you have narrow feet, these may fit "true to size" in sneaker sizing, which is usually much larger than dress or normal shoes. (My feet are slightly wide with very high arches.) However, if you are expecting them to fit (size-wise) like your beloved Guide 15's, they do not.

This shoe pushed my feet to the outside. Not balanced.

Very much like the version before it, very comfortable and stable running shoe! I can feel the arch support and guidance stability, and it great for overpronaters. These are firm shoes, which I prefer as a daily trainer compared to softer max cushioned. The new guides seemed to have changed so I’m stocking up while I can!

The 11.5 fit very well. They feel better than my Hoka shoes. I will definitely look to this brand when it is time for another pair.

These are the lightest running shoes I have ever owned.

Love these shoes! Finally found a comfortable shoe my feet and body likes! I am not in pain. Horrah!!
