Great more neutral shoe for distance!!
Originally posted on Saucony
Yes, I recommend this
Bought a few months ago—used to train in ghosts and those were a bit too neutral, but didn’t want something too bouncy either. These are the perfect in between (and are actually cute—rare in a more neutral shoe). I am a distance runner—half’s usually, but have done a full marathon too. These are so great! Very stable. Sized up a half size (usually do in runners) and they fit great. Would recommend.

Holes

I bought them a month ago and the mesh on the toes ripped. Now there is a huge hole. I wear running socks, had my foot scanned and fitted for them and I only run on a treadmill. This shouldn’t have happened to a pair of sneakers like this.

Different than the Ride 17s and not in a good way
Originally posted on Saucony

I have loved the ride 17s. Loved! And this was going to be my 3rd pair of Rides/ was so excited for the updated colors in the Ride 18 but something about them just isn’t right. They feel cheaper and they don’t fit the same. I wish there was a trial period for these shoes like Brooks bc this rating is only based off trying them on at home. I would love to be able to say they get better after a couple runs but not going to risk it. Will be returning and going back to the 17s.

I have about 100 miles on these shoes so far and I’ve continued to like them more and more! Comfortable, good energy return, good for easy and long runs. Bread and butter shoe. Will be buying another pair once I wear these out.

Comfy but wider than needed

I was so excited to get these pretty shoes, but they were too wide for my feet. Super comfy besides that! The only reason for 4 stars and not 5 is the width and narrow was not an option.

Nothing like the Ride 17
Originally posted on Saucony

I ordered an 8.5- Fuchsia | Tulip. The color was so awesome and I was so excited about the potential of this shoe, but the fit was awful. My favorite trainer is the Ride 17, but this is nothing like it (I ordered the same size as my previous Saucony shoes). The heel of the shoe immediately slipped off every step I took and the shoe would not stay on my foot no matter how I tied it. I was so disappointed!

Off gases something awful
Originally posted on Saucony

Saucony has taken their brand a step backwards with their new "foam." Whatever it is, it off gases something awful and you can't even come near them if you are sensitive. Plus, that smell can't be good for people's health. Would love for them to go back to more traditional styling as they used to be such a solid brand. Try again Saucony.....

Too squishy, bad manufacturing

These shoes have weird little bumps on the bottom part of the shoe that Saucony refused to exchange. They are too squishy.

Big & bulky shoe .
Originally posted on Saucony

I purchased the Ride 18 about a month ago . I had read reviews and it was stated there were few changes from the Ride 17 and comments by testers were favorable. However , the Ride 18 is significantly different from the 17. The platform is big and bulky and looks like a boat ! My feet hit together just to walk in these shoes . I returned them !!

I would have gave it 5 starts, but the color isn't as bright as its shown above! They feel very supportive and has nice cushion!

Great updates!

Loving the upgrades, but durability seems to have gotten worse. I liked the previous version but this one has way better padding. The ride is slightly softer. Has some bounce. I’m happy that there is still a basic trainer out there without huge stack. Will continue to use this as my daily trainer. Good job Saucony!

Love the cushioned ride

Switched to these from Brooks Ghost and I love them. They are more cushiony than the ghost and offer more support. I have collapsed arches and over probate. These shoes feel great.

This year's perfect shoe
Originally posted on Saucony
Triumph 20 was the last Triumph I could wear. The 21's were tight, and the.22's too plush. It was getting hard to find my size in the 20's so tried New Balance, Asics end Brooks again. All the old brands I wore before they changed and I found the triumphs. I had little hope for finding a shoe after the Triumph changed. I tried these new Ride 18 and they were perfect for me. They have the right amount of support, no pain after wearing them a day. My feet are narrow, so others might need to order them in wide. The colors our nice, but my hope is they'll come out with more fun colors like the Sweaty Betty Triumph. Will definitely get these again until they change...

don't like new features
Originally posted on Saucony
Don't care for new style. The tongue is weird. The toe box feels more narrow and these hurt my feet. Been wearing Rides for several years and this doesn't feel like an improvement. I went online to find the old version because these are so bad. Ruining a good thing. Also ruined the guides which are my favorite shoe that I've been wearing for decades.
