Customer Reviews Saucony Kinvara 14

Comfy and cute shoes but the length runs longer than usual. Usually wear 8.5 and buy 39 for running. These feel longer than other Kinvaras. I buy them every year and do feel the difference this year.

I suffered a broken ankle April 2022 followed by two surgeries to repair the damage and Saucony shoes have been absolutely wonderful in providing me the support needed during my recovery phases . . . These Kinvara 14 have been great as Im now able to walk without a boot on my left leg . . . Light and comfortable. Thank you so much for creating such a fabulous product!!!

I love my new Linvara 14 shoes. So comfortable , lightweight! I have several pairs of Saucony shoes and are very happy with every pair!!

I have been a loyal user of the Kinvara model for several years. The Kinvara 14 model is much harder than previous models, especially in the inner heal. This model is not as comfortable as previous models.

I have been wearing Kinvaras for 15 years and unfortunately had to order a pair of Kinvara 12s on Amazon. (Last one in my size!). Please return to the previous feel with less cushioning!

These are comfortable, light on feet with good cushion. Theyre not super durable though, Ive clocked about 60 miles in mine & the tread is worn. Would still buy again, wish wide fit came in more color options.

I loved the deep, cushy platform on these Kinvara 14, but Saucony has gone weird with their arch placement in these and the Triumph 20! I like a defined arch shape, but not when the arch curve cuts into the front & inside of my heels! Several other brands are doing that lately, too - some new trend?

Ive run in Kinvaras for 10 years and I love them! This version, the 14, I did not like the fit. They caused a lot of pain and pressure on the tops of my feet. I had to return them and stock up on the Kinvara 13s.

I like the shoe but I would have called it something else. It doesnt remind me of the Kinvara, but is a nice addition to the rotation. As a heel striker I appreciate the cushion and new design. Love the 4 mm drop and wish more brands had this. A good shoe, but maybe just needs to be under a different name.

Oh dear! As soon as I saw the product photo I wondered at the design change. Reading the other reviews here convinces me Ill need to buy a few pairs of the Kinvara 13 to keep me going. Not loving the design direction of the 14.

The updated 14 I want to love them but I just dont. Too far a departure from what Kinvara loyalists love about them. The added stack height and stiffer forefoot gives much less ground connection and Im having bad nerve pain issues in the ball of my foot as a result. Off to stock up on old models until they come back around toward the Kinvara 2 again.

Added too much padding so you cant feel the road. Messes with pelvic floor and the bodys natural judgement of the ground. Why did they mess up a good style by making it like every other bad foam shoe on the marketX. Disappointing

The Kinvara is my do it all shoe. I love the light weight natural feel of the Kinvara. When I'm running they dissappear on my feet. I'm also healthcare professional and wear these to work. I routinely get 10000 steps and have no problem wearing Kinvaras, especially the 13's. The 14th edition does not feel natural. Before my first run , I ran around doing a bunch of errands. After a half hour my feet hurt. A bothersome bump in the heal area, and a narrow toe box. They felt better on the run, but not to my liking. Saucony already produce high stack, high custioned, shoes, why do you need to change your only natural shoe you offer? Who's your target.

I did not like the way these shoes felt on my feet. They were very uncomfortable. This new style just did not work for me.

I've been wearing Kinvaras for years but this is my first time trying the 14. Too narrow and tight across the toe box. Which is crazy because I have narrow feet. No way I could run in these. I returned them. The pros are that it's a nice looking shoe with a pretty, subdued color, and the shoe is very light. I would have loved it if these worked out but sadly, they did not.

The toe box is too small/narrow. I have done 6 runs or so and they are not nearly as comfortable as my previous Kinvaras. I have worn the Kinvara since Kinvara 5 and there was only only one other the 6 I believe that didn't meet my expectations. So sad bc I have loved this shoe for so long. Hopefully the next one will be better. I'll be searching for something else.

I have ordered Kinvaras for years and the 14 does not fit like the previous models. There is way more width in the toe box and my toes are getting blisters from too much slipping around.

Put me down as another Kinvara fan who is appalled at the changes to this shoe. I am leaving two stars instead of one because I CAN run in them, so although they don't feel anything like the old shoes, at least I don't find them totally unusable. The upper is different, the lacing is different (Minus one eyelet, which makes a big difference for my weird shaped foot!) And, of course the sole is totally different. I am lucky I guess that I am a forefoot striker because there is something really bizarre about the heel It really is uncomfortable to walk in! So basically It's a totally different shoe as others have said. The weird sparkly fishnet mesh that the upper is made out of Is like something I would have worn to a rave in 1999, I actually laughed out loud at how bad it looks when I took it out of the box! I don't know what they're trying to do with the shoe, I watched some preview videos for the upcoming model, and it seems like they are trying to market it as more of a cross trainerprobably to sell more of them to more people, right? I am definitely going to shop around for a replacement for the Kinvara, like half the other people and these comments, ha ha.

Why do they always ruin the Kinvara after they get it right??? I like the material but the fit is very different. Doesn't seem to hit my foot in the right spots- feels narrow at the beginning of the toe box.

I tried a "new" kind of shoe meant for gym workouts that combine strength and running, but these feel so flimsy compared to running shoes. They don't fit like my other Saucony running shoes. The heel has substantial support, the ball does not. I also feel like they run wide compared? Would not buy again.

These aren't as comfortable or cushion around toe area as the powerrun version. I'm returning for another pair of powerrun style.
