Customer Reviews Saucony Kinvara 14

Agree with reviews looking to other brands. Saucing going with so much sole I can no longer feel the ground. Same complaint with other shoe companies. Will only buy shoes more natural to the feet 6mm or less doesnt have to be much minimal but wont buy highly cushioned shoes. I dont know what happened to Kinvaras.

Very narrow. Top of shoe felt flimsy. Really liked to colour - had to return.

My second pair. Both pairs give me blisters on left heal. Was hoping it would be different with seccond pair.

Had these a few months now. Are they my favorite kinvara? No, but still use them for daily runs. I dont love the added stack height but I love that other than that, they dont differ too much as far as fit goes. Still my favorite runner fit.

I purchased this recently as I have worn Kinvara's for many, many years and LOVE the shoe. That said, this version of the Kinvara just does not work for me. I wore my new 14's for the first time today. I am a neutral runner/walker having had my gait analyzed at a local athletic shoe seller hence why the Kinvara has always been a good shoe for me. I noticed was leaning inward on both feet, mostly my right foot with the new shoe. While the foam felt comfortable, overall the shoe did not. The toe box seems narrower and my right foot actually hurt on the outer right side. This has never happened for me with a Kinvara shoe. The netting in the shoe is also scratchy. Not sure why all the significant changes to a shoe that has been a staple for so long. Just create a new shoe! I did order a Kinvara 13 today on here and an additional pair on another shoe site. I am hoping these will last until the next version comes out. Fingers crossed that Saucony will go back to its roots on this shoe otherwise I will unfortunately have to look elsewhere.

I have been in kinvaras since the 9s. And my 9 and 10 are my favorites (especially the Woodstock ones). I agree with majority of the poorer ratings. The construction has been altered these are loose and although light they feel cheap and I am having poor footing as I am over pronating now and causing massive issues despite new insoles. The heel and material of the sole is not what it used to be and is overly cushioned causing more damage than good. I unfortunately will be moving on from my beloved kinvaras which upsets me tremendously as I feel like I starting over in fittings. I may totally jump ship for a hoka if other models are constructed the same.

I have been loyal to Saucony Kinvara wide for years! Despite haveing to purchase many pairs since they wear extremely quickly, I have done so. I spend hours researching and trying to find the right shoe and have done so with the kinvara. Throughout the years they have made some changes which were great while keeping the base fairly minimal. That ended with the 14! Not only are they higher, they have taken on a rocker base both which I am trying to avoid. If you are looking to make a more cushiony sneaker with a rocker base, why not create a separate line and leave what was perfect alone!! Sadly I will no longer be a saucony customer.

These are so comfy and the support is amazing, especially on the long runs. I have the Kinvara 12 pair and the difference is obvious when I'm on the treadmill or on the track.

these shoes are insanely comfortable! feels like im running on a spring floor! Got them to start getting into running as a beginner, Bought them for my 5k coming up, Very happy w my purchase!

I couldn't get past the sloppy/unstructured upper. I could not get a good lock down fit and my foot felt like it was sliding all over the place. I used to love the Kinvara. The Kinvara 9 is still my favorite shoe of all time and I miss having light/flexible/low offset options like that! With all of the high stack/plated shoes out there now, my options are limited for the style of shoe I like and I can no longer go to the Kinvara, unfortunately.

Last years model was much more amazing. The sole is too thick and throws my running off. Generally a more uncomfortable model. Bring back Kinvara 13!

Long time Saucony wearer! Stopped wearing them for years. Not for any reason in particular, just wanted to try something else. I randomly spotted these because of the great color. I saw red, so I ordered them. I was disappointed when they arrived as they are much more a berry shade with little to no red. Not a reason to return them! I've run in them a few times now trying to break them in. Remember now why I was such a fan. Overall, just a really good running shoe. But please, make a legit red one!!!!

Make my ankle hurts,not really stable , not what I was expecting

This was my first pair of Sauconys. These make me feel like Im running on air! They are extremely comfortable. Dont hesitate to buy.

Ive been a saucony kinvara fan for numerous years. The 14s arent my favorite. They seem to run bigger and they have a taller platform than the 13s.

Ive tried to love these but the toe drop and some change are so horrible. My toes and heels hurt so bad in this model. I dont like that I cant feel the road beneath my feet.

The toe space is larger than past models, making a looser fit. I have narrow feet and past models have fit well. This model bunches up in the forefoot due to being wider

I love my new sneakers!!! Extremely comfortable, I love the color combo I ordered as well. White/pink/green These are the most comfortable sneakers Ive ever owned!!

I bought these because I thought I could work in them. I cannot work longer than 2 hours. I stand for 8 hours a day as a hairdresser. They really hurt my heels. I can walk and fo aerobic activity, but it's a no for standing.

i bought these shoes in a 6.5W after getting them in 6.5 normal width at a local running store. the widths are exactly the same. its a great shoe very fast and lightweight just know that the wide width version is not actually wider. you might as well just order the normal width and get a fun color.

I taught it would be more cushion After a 5k walk my feet really hurting I walk 2k every day this one was not comfortable.

I bought these because I needed a shoe for walking that would be good for my sciatica and the website recommended Kinvara 14. They work well. They give support but are soft and comfortable. I liked them so well that I bought another pair. I bought a half size larger and wide width to accommodate the socks I wear when I walk.

I bought 3 pair of the latest Kinvaras. My first complaint is I typically wear medium width and they now run tighter. However I tried wide width which is too big. The toe box is roomier in the wide but in previous versions it was fine, but now its too narrow in the medium. The insole doesnt feel as supported, and Ive developed a muscle strain in my right thigh trying to compensate for how these make my feet feel which isnt like the 11s I began my Kinvara journey in, and I havent changed anything about my activities or work. Plus Ive lost weight so it isnt that either. They just arent as high quality in my opinion. Theres a sale going on and as much as Id like more shoes, the ratings have gone down for almost every model. Thats when you know someone incompetent/cheap took over or they completely went another direction and negated all of the positive factors. Based on my latest purchase, I can no longer recommend this shoe, and am about to switch companies.
