Received these shoes today. Ordered the grey/grey and they look completely different from the stock photo online. Online it has more of a tan color. These are just very light shoes.

From the time I put them on, they were a perfect fit in the width and the length. They did not need to be broken in at all, they were comfortable and ready to use out of the box. Great for every day comfort. Its been a long time since I found a pair of shoes that I liked right out of the box. I would definitely buy more Saucony in the future

Wrong model
No, I don't recommend this
Ordered a different color and it came green and not the model I ordered so had to return. Returns customer service at Princess street in Edinburgh was so so as well

Boxy but good.

Real nice, but runs a little tight. I had to purchase a second pair a half size larger.

Classic yet retro

Nice design on these. Just a little retro but no too much. The color works with all colors of pants or shorts.

I bought these to be a comfortable shoe for work that matched the company polo shirt. Matched the shirt perfectly. They where comfortable and airy. Definitely plan to buy more colorways.

These and the 6000s are my favourite street sneakers. They look good with jeans. I find them supportive and comfortable. I can walk for hours. I wish there were more colours.

Beautiful design but way too narrow despite ordering my normal size for Saucony. Returned.

Classic footwear

The Saucony Shadow 5000 is a flawless retro runner. It trades flashy, temporary hype for top-tier comfort, timeless design, and build quality that lasts. If you want a daily driver that stands out subtly through great colorways and clean lines rather than loud branding, this is an elite choice.

This pair of Saucony shoes is far from my first. Saucony has been my walking shoe of choice for 20+ years. But I have to say that this pair is making my arches unhappy, sore, and I don't know whether it it this particular shoe or if my old, yes, feet are entering a new phase of aging. I wish I did know because I don't know where else to turn.

Great shoes. How in the world does this company stay in business with some of these color combos. On top of that they can’t keep shadow 5000’s in stock. 🤷♂️

An excellent shoe!

I have been wearing Saucony Jazz and Bullets for years, as my go-to shoes for casual walking. The Shadow 5000 is an excellent shoe - the fit and design are perfect. I wish Saucony would bring back the Bullets, though I am happy to have found the Shadow 5000. Also, colour is just gorgeous.

Heavy Duty & Boot-Like
Originally posted on Saucony
I ordered 1.5 size larger than my regular shoes. From a 6.6 to an 8. They fit perfectly with lots of ankle support almost boot-like but with more agility.
