I cannot stress enough how much I LOVE these shoes. I have very finicky feet and it normally takes me weeks if not months to break in shoes. From the jump my feet have never taken to a shoe like this before. They're so supportive, fit fantastic and are the most comfortable shoes I've ever had. They're great for going to the gym or walking the dog... I love them so much I just ordered another 2 pairs so I have backups once these get worn out. First pair of Saucony shoes ever. I've been buying Asics for 10+ years.

Seems as thought I have been looking for Ever for a a shoe that FIT and Finally it all came together in this shoe. It is nice and wide in the toe box but I did not order a wide width ...Great!! As soon as I put them on I knew it was going to be the shoe for me and so it was THE shoe right out of the Box!! As far as arch support I did not say Excellent because it is Great for me but for others it just may be moderate arch support. LOVE this shoe I ordered the Yellow/lime green color and WOW now that is a Color that you notice..FUN!!

I’ve worn Saucony Rides for years, but changed it up this time to try something new. This felt comfortable as soon as I put it on, and I like how I can feel a bit more road than the Rides while still being comfortable and supported. Plenty of room in the toe box area!

Have always appreciated Saucony's slightly larger toe box and narrow heel. Am glad I came back to this brand after wearing others. This shoe is light weight with great support. Love the blue color--it's sort of a pale, silvery blue.

I've been a Brooks lover since I started running 5 years ago! These are by far my favorite running shoes I've purchased!

This is very comfortable I'm using it to get back into running. I'm a heel stricker an this is the first sneaker that has enough protection to comfortably get through my workout.

I walk 4-6 miles a day at work . I have had these shoes for months. They are still comfortable. I will purchase again. Doctor recommended this brand for my feet. I love these shoes.

I will been running with Saucony for years but this pair is by far the most comfortable and supportive while being fairly minimal.
I have a slightly wide foot and a middle-of-the-road arch.

The shoe was great by appearance. After a few days of wear the fit is amazing. I have really sensitive feet so I am very picky about shoes but I am in love with this pair.

This is my umpeenth pair of Saucony running shoes that I use for walking (about 20 miles per week). This time I ordered 6 pair of athletic shoes of different brands plus this Saucony. I ended up only keeping this Saucony for these reasons:
I ordered a size 9M (my non athletic shoe size is 8.5). None of the other size 9s fit at all, and this fits as usual for a Saucony size 9. Plenty of room in the toebox, toes don't hit the end. The width is always right. Not wild about the color - my last pair of Saucony were purple and orange and I loved that color combination. This is pretty boring but comfort won out.
Thank you Zappos for allowing me to try on different shoes and keep the best one!

Lightweight running shoe. Roomy toe box with some stretch. Good heel fit and additional lace hole to make shoe a little more snug around ankle, if needed. Removable insoles. The insoles that come in the shoes do not support my high arches and I did not expect them to, so I did not ding the rating. I replace the insoles in my running shoes with orthotic shoe insoles purchased separately. Overall good, comfortable shoe.

Shoe fits 1/2 size to big. Had to send them back to get different size. Haven't heard anything from the company about getting the returns in and shipping new ones.

A good step up from the breakthru 2's that I finally traded in for these. Lightweight and enough padding to keep running easy, but not so much I feel off balance. I mostly run on roads, but I did some trail running while on vacation and they held up just fine for that. I marked them as fitting true to size because they fit like a Saucony 9. Typically in shoes, I wear an 8.5, but I always size a half size up as recommended and they feel fine. If they're still around when I burn out this pair, I'd happily buy again.

I've run for years in Kinvaras and LOVED the lightness and flat feel and look. Had to change to a more ramped shoe and other choices were not as comfortable or as beloved as my years of running in Kinvaras. But the Breakthrough is IT!! WOOOHOOOO!!! Light, neutral with an 8mm drop, FEELS like a Saucony - shallow and comfortable heel pocket, and so comfortable!! This shoe is everything I've been looking for in a running shoe: super light, very wide, neutral, BRIGHT colors and 8mm drop. I have horribly wide feet (I ought to be a swimmer) and I am tempted to purchase a years' worth of these shoes because I love them so much. Please do not change them!! THANK YOU for years of great shoes and many miles!!!!! LONG LIVE the Breakthrough!!

Gave this a 4 because I didn't think the cushioning of the shoe was very thick....felt thin. Bought it for pickleball. This is good for general walking around and casual. I ended up buying the Brooks Glycerin 16-like walking on air! Good for pickleball too.

I am training for a 10K. So far these are the most comfortable and lightweight shoes that has worked for me. The toe box width is nice and not too tapered like Asics. I have very high arches, so I have to use custom insoles. I do wish the midfoot and heel were a little narrower. No blisters, no pain and able to run comfortably with little leg fatigue.

I admit I ordered this shoe to get the lime/charcoal color. I normally wear a different brand, but I noticed our local shoe store was carrying Saucony and this particular model was on sale.
I was immediately disappointed in the fit. I ordered an 8 M and the shoe is VERY wide. There is basically no support for the sides or ankle and the shoe laces are made of inexpensive flat cotton. I will wear them occasionally for their 'wow' factor but if I ever buy another pair of Saucony, I will do it in person so I can see and try on the actual product.
