Exact same pair/model of shoes feel different

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to buy a pair of Saucony Hurricane 25 (standard width - D).

I went to a few different stores and tried on the exact same model—same colorway, same size, and even the same production date on the inner tag.

However, each pair felt noticeably different on my feet! One pair was super comfortable, while two others felt off / less comfortable.

Has anyone experienced this before? Is manufacturing variation between identical pairs normal, or could something else be going on? Thanks!

Saucony progrid ride 1

I really wanted to try this model out, I chose these over the buttercup colourway as I have yellow on a couple of other pairs and feel these are more wearable.

I love the pattern on the mesh and when comparing to the omni 9 I find these to be slightly softer under foot and less chunky. I do really like the omni 9 but I think I’m leaning more towards this model. Looking forward to see future colour ways and collabs

New shoe recommendation

I run 5 miles 5-6 times a week. I had the saucuny hurricane 24 and now have the saucuny hurricane 25. I really like both of them and felt no difference in the two models. My 25's are worn out and need replacement. They are worn mostly on the outside of the sole as you see in the photos. Do you have a recommendation for a running shoe that I should buy that would be better for me or should I get another pair of saucuny hurricane 25?

Saucony Triumph 24

Hello there

Bought this shoe, after wearing for 5 minutes at the store, it is so nice and bouncy.

Problem started on the first trip, when I want to wear them and sit in the car, the heel cup starts digging into my heel. The foam starts pushing back, not at all comfortable. Stupid show all together is my opinion.

Contacted Saucony response —- live with it.

Buyers beware, not a nice show for regular usage, except for running…

Saucony low stack shoes

Hey guys do any of you know if Saucony will continue with the Kinvara and bring out a Kinvara 17 ? Normally they release in summer but not yet ?
And do any of you have information about the sinister ? Why was it discontinued it would be the perfect shoe for my training at this point :(

My collection has grown a bit since the last time I shared it here

Some sleepers scattered in there but I am also sharing some of my favorites. I wear them all.

Trainer 80 Question

I'm new to Saucony, so please excuse any ignorance on my part.

I've mostly been an Adidas guy until now, and lately I've been getting into retro running style sneakers. I have a few pair of Adidas SL 72 RS, but I want to try other brands of vintage look runners as well.

I've heard here and elsewhere on the web that Saucony has basically ruined the Jazz line of sneakers, which was my first choice for my first pair of Saucony. My question: is the Trainer 80 still good quality in regard to materials, fit, durability, look, etc.?

Another question: I've also had a look at New Balance 515 and Nike Air Pegasus 83, but are there other retro-style runners with the same sort of look that you'd recommend I have a look at?

Thanks!

Shoe rotation overwhelm

Is it excessive to have the speed 5s, Azura, Ride 19 and Triumph 23?

I already have the speeds and Azura. I have trouble getting a good lockdown Azura and get ankle pain. Was going to replace them with the rides and get the triumph for easy runs and casual wear.

Race shoe analogous to Saucony Ride 18 (Wide) for Marathon on asphalt/gravel?

Basically what the title says :)

Current Shoe: Saucony Ride 18 (Wide) — currently on my 3rd pair over 2 years. Insole: Currex RunPro (planning to transfer into race shoes). Target Event: Marathon at the end of October (starting break-in in September). Terrain: Mix of asphalt and gravel. Weekly Volume: 20–30 miles per week. Budget: Flexible / Open to all price points.

Context & Fit Profile: The Saucony Ride 18 (Wide) has been my staple daily trainer for two years. My legs always feel supported and fresh in them, even if the upper mesh hasn't been the most durable over high mileage.

I am currently training for a marathon on a mix of asphalt and gravel. Because the Ride 18 is a traditional daily trainer, I want to add a faster, dedicated race-day shoe to my rotation that offers a similar feel and geometry underfoot.

What I Need:

  • Width: Must come in a true Wide (2E) or have a sufficiently accommodating toe box/midfoot.
  • Insole Compatibility: Needs a removable sockliner with enough volume to fit my Currex RunPro insoles.
  • Surface & Grip: Rubber outsole needs to handle gravel and road without slipping or getting destroyed easily.
  • Geometry & Feel: Ideally stays close to the 8mm drop of the Ride 18 and offers extra pop/propulsion for 26.2 miles without feeling wildly unstable.

Has anyone who loves training in the Ride 18 Wide found a marathon race-day shoe or speed trainer that compliments it well on mixed surfaces?
