I've been running in Triumphs for years and overall very happy with them. The toe box in the Triumph 21 is much larger, making for a sloppy fit even with the laces tight as they can go. Thankfully the laces are longer than the 19 & 20's.

This sneaker has very stiff soles, and the soles squeak when walking on wood floors.

Unfortunately had to return. Toebox too narrow and shoe was short. Loved the previous model, very disappointed.

The cushion in this shoe is excellent! My plantar fasciitis is doing much better. However, I can't seem to get used to the heel counter. It slips and I'm dealing with a blister/soreness here instead

I like the Triumph 19 better. More stable without question.

I have the Triumph model before they tried to copy Hoka. I decided to switch from Hoka to Saucony because it did not have a huge squishy bottom. The older Triumphs were much better for cushioning and knees and ankles. These are too loose and instable.

I bought these because I have wide feet and heard that Saucony includes wide widths. The toe box is wide enough, but the rest of the shoe is awfully tight for a wide width. I kept it because of the toe box and the sturdiness of the shoe, but overall it's too snug for a wide.

I bought these shoes about three weeks ago. Already the soul is getting ripped up on the side. Perhaps my heels rub together somewhat that I am not aware of but the inside soul is looking terrible after a very short period of time. The shoe is a very comfortable And I can wear it all day.

I had a pair of Triumph before but this pair seems different. I am not liking the fit. The left shoe is bothersome.

Bought this shoe and love the way it feels walking/running. However, the sole came off and my toes started the wear through the top after a few months.

I love Triumph model! Super comfy and cushioned! Great for my knees. But I have worn through the big toe area in less than 3 months!!! I have a black model, so I can't wear any other colors of socks but black! Could customer support look at all of the reviews for same issue and suggest the company/designers to do something about the material?

Unfortunately, I haven't worn Saucony for a very long time. I bought the Triumph 21 online in the size I normally wear in running shoes. The shoes run big/long. At least a half size difference.

I have bought 3 pairs of these and love that they are so cushy and comfortable. However, this model has a flaw that one other person pointed out in the Reviews. On all of my right shoes, the big toe creates a hole before the shoes are worn out. I am disappointed with the durability of the top covering of the shoe. Please re-evaluate the material and make it durable.

Liked the cushioning but the arch support seemed not to be in the correct place for my foot.

I used to love the Triumph line but the past three pairs I have bought, even though I sized up, have worn through the big toe area in four months or less. Very disappointing. I am only a casual runner so I can't imagine how quickly they would break down on a daily jogger.

The fit is great right out of the box, super comfortable. My complaint is that they aren't made to last, the top of the shoe started developing a hole after three months of wear. My other Sauconys did the same thing, wearing down at the top of the toe. I'm almost 60, and have never had an issue like this with any other athletic shoe.

I've always run with Triumph sneaks, this is probably my tenth pair, and for some reason the collar on this pair has split open after only about 12 runs. So disappointing. Not sure if there is a new material or design, but they haven't held up well at all.

I am on my second pair of saucony triumphs. I really liked the first pair, so I got a second, and I am overall not impressed. After less than 50 miles, I'm already looking for a new pair of shoes for my easy long runs. The heels on these are particularly uncomfortable. I see no material difference between each of my heels, but the right did not fit as good as my left, so I was trying to squeeze the heel to get it to feel more snug. Later, I got a terrible blister on my left heel. I love the sole, midsole, and inserts, but I'm really struggling with the overall fit in the heel, which caused me to lace them up higher than I normally would. This is a miss for me. I am hesitant to get a new pair of triumphs after this problem, and as Saucony doesn't have anything else similar, I'm left googling to find out what other brands have a comparable shoe that I can try out. I was previously wearing Hoka Clifton, but they were wearing out too quickly and were too narrow in the toe box. I'm just so disappointed and back to the drawing board.

This is the third year I've bought the Triumph and I think it will be the last. I have average height arches and these don't support my feet anymore. The two year old pair I have in the closet has more support than the brand new ones. I don't like the wider toe box either. My feet feel like they have too much room to move even though I'm wearing my "correct" size. They seem to be well constructed but they've changed the fit of this shoe so much in the past two years it no longer suits my feet. Disappointed.

Let me preface by saying I struggle with leaving less than favorable reviews. However, if I can help someone make a more informed decision I feel better about it. I have been a Brooks Glycerin girl for years. They have always checked every box for me. When it was time for a new pair the color options for my size weren't all that desirable so I took it as a sign to try something different. I went out on a limb and went with the Triumphs. Let me say for the record that for everyday casual wear they are super comfy! However, for my daily walks they just don't work. It almost feels like I have an extra bounce in my step. I have to put in extra work with my stride to compensate for what I assume is the height/composition of the cushioning. Previously, I walked with a pace between 11:45-12:15. With maximum effort in the Triumphs I have added an extra 30-45 seconds/mile. My ankles hurt after a few minutes of trying to keep my pace while trying not to bounce too much with each step. I really, really want to like these shoes but they don't do the job I was hoping they would as a higher-end option. I wish Saucony would take a page out of the Brooks playbook and offer something similar to their 90-day test run!

Loved everything about this sneaker except the outside cushion was like styrofoam and seemed very cheap and the width between regular and wide were no different.

I have liked the Triumph in the past. I mostly wore them for long 6-9miles, hikes and gym training. However the 20 and 21 styles have a lower heel tab. My heel is not at all secured in place and practically comes right out of the shoe as I walk. It's not a sizing issue either. The most important feature of a shoe should be stability in the arches and heels and this style does not offer it. Also saucony's regular fit is still very wide (and I don't have narrow feet). I've had to tie my laces so tight to avoid slipping around inside the shoe that I now have a bump on the top of my foot.

I bought these shoes PWRRUN just before the summer sandal season. I wore them infrequently in the summer and just started wearing them again in October. They are comfortable BUT I didn't expect my toe to poke through after less than sixty days of wear. I expected them to last as I wear them to work, but now I can't because of the holes. I am very disappointed.
