Light weight comfy trainers

Nice lightweight trainers which I wear for the gym. I should have down sized as seen in previous reviews,but are ok for my use .I still feel well supported.lm not a runner so I can't comment on wear and tear etc.

Great trainers! Fit perfectly and give a lot of support. I suffer from plantar fasciitis and these trainers have really helped. None or hardly any pain after exercising. Finally found a pair of trainers that are wide enough and are comfortable

Disappointed in Guide 17
Originally posted on Saucony
I bought the new Guide 17 shoe for the support and stability it has given in the past, and found it to be perilously unstable while walking and light jogging. Tried to return it but could not as it had been worn. This Guide model was redesigned fr a previous version of same also made for running, and the redesign was so drastic as to be unrecognizable. Be careful out there!

I bought this pair of Saucony Guide 17 to replace my Asics Kayano 28. I read that Saucony is more breathable and stable. Unfortunately for me, it is not the case. Since I started using Saucony my knee pain restarted and I don’t find them breathable at all.

I was a big fan of the endorphin shift and the guide 17 was suggested as a replacement . So glad I took the advice, love them even more!

Won't buy again

They look good and are comfy, but are really stiff around the middle in comparison to their predecessors and I picked up an ankle injury, possibly due to strained dorsiflexion motion as there's a lack of flexibility in the trainers. Disappointing when the design changes so much between models.

Love Guides but this pair has left blisters

I’ve worn Saucony Guides for last 15 years plus in running several half and 5 full marathons with no issues. Bought the 17’s in November and wore them once and got a blister on left inside heel but was wearing new type of socks so blamed it on the socks. Haven’t worn them since until yesterday. This time I wore my regular running socks and again wore a blister on left inside heel after only a 5 mile walk. I have no issues with my other running shoes. It’s just the left shoe, no issue with the right. So only worn twice and blister on left foot each time.

Not stability

Needed new running shoes and I’ve worn the guide for 5 years. They were always amazing, cured my shin splints and allowed me to get back into running. After hurting my ankle I bought a new pair. Went to the doctor and was informed that my shoes were not stability. Doctor picked them up and bent them in half, a true stability doesn’t do that. Would not recommend buying if you’re a stability wearer.

My back doesn’t hurt when wearing these shoes. They.are good all day. Don’t know about running as I no longer do it. Much better than the Guide 18 in the rocking shoe category. Still trying to find size 9 in the Guide 17.

Just Okay
Originally posted on Saucony
This was my first Saucony purchase. I bought the shoe because I needed stability. The shoes are okay, but there was definitely a design flaw where the tongues on the shoes were not the same length. Shoe laces were not the same length. Quality control is definitely lacking. I also believe this shoe is huge for a size 9. Can't return because I have worn them. The first time I wore them on my walk, they made my legs and body tired. Went for another walk and they do feel better but not sure if I would purchase again. Hopefully, they will feel better as time goes on.

Great Shoes

These shoes were a lifesaver for me. I was having issues with my toes as I started to run longer distances. Running Room suggested I try these and size up a bit and I haven’t had issues since. Lots of room in the toe box and great support and comfort. Bought two more pairs because I love them so much. Highly recommend!

Comfortable shoe

Very comfortable shoe - great arch support and cushioning. I use mine for running and I have had shoes that were too soft, these are comfortable. Not so squishy that I can’t run, just soft enough to feel great even after putting in a few miles. Looking forward to buying a second pair.

My daughter is a nurse and these are the only shoes she wears!!! Her feet don't hurt and are so comfortable for her!! I got her 2 pairs for Christmas and she alternates wearing them.

i do not like the feel of this shoe. I have bought Saucony Guides for years and always loved them. I don't know what they did that change the feel but I don't like it. Too late to return too since I had to wear them to learn I didn't like them.
