Customer Reviews Saucony Originals Jazz 81

This is not the same shoe that they made before. I've owned quite a few pairs over the years. The last pair that I received were made differently. Quite frankly cheaper. The tongue was flimsier. They were not as comfortable and seemed smaller than the size on them. Even the logo over the heel was different than previous pairs. I'm sorry to say it looks like they cheapened what was an excellent sneaker. Last pair I buy. Back to Reebok for me.

I love these sneakers and have had them in three different colors. They're sooo comfortable! Wanted something fresh for spring and was hoping for a stylish orange, but it's not orange, rather a melon color. Not what I was hoping for.

I ordered these shoes because they are mostly suede, I do not like the new mesh material that most brands are using now. However I thought they felt flimsy/ cheap and had no arch support. They are going back.

Holes after 300 miles of walking. Back in the day my Saucony Jazz2000s had over 1000 miles one year before they wore out. I have ASICS that have held up far, far better and am switching back to ASICS.

I ordered two pair of these in the same size, one in a different color. The other color was sized perfectly, but the silver gray was smaller. I compared the lengths of the soles, and the silver was almost an inch shorter.

These used to last longer. I’ve bought these several years in a row but now both pairs I have wore out at the big toe after just a couple months. Wish the quality was still there.

If there was a durability star rating I’d give a 2 or 3. I’ve owned this style of Saucony before and they lasted forever! I mean 8-9 years. This pair I’ve work 3 times and the rubber on the sole coming over the tip of my toes is already parting away from the shoe. 3 wears. Booo. So I can’t return them and get my money back or a replacement but I can break that down in a experience charge for you $3.70 an hour. But they actually started falling apart on day 2…. Anyhow the shoe is always so comfortable and true to size and looks great. However the quality is slipping.

These shoes seemed a size smaller than ordered and marked, and wider. I returned them.

I really wanted to like this shoe. I am a true size 7 across many brands. This shoe felt too short and the heel felt too wide. Super cute, just not for me.

These are nothing like original jazz- flat, stiff, cardboard, cheap feeling, no arch support. This is definitely a different design. Would not recommend if you are trying to replace the timeless classic. The orange is bright like faded red, not a burnt, dark orange I was hoping for.

I ordered this shoe a half size larger than I normally wear…It actually felt more than a size smaller…toes were pushing thru front of shoe. Tongue of shoe is thin. Returned the same day they were delivered as no way I could wear them. Disappointing as it’s difficult to find cute shoes for larger sizes

No good for overpronators. Right shoe came with front sole beginning to come off front of shoe.

although very cute in style, they offer no support or cushion.

I only order Saucony shoes as they are the more comfortable. I was disappointed when these arrived and they were very narrow. All of my Sauconys are the same size as the ones I ordered but these felt much smaller.

I almost kept them because they were comfortable and I liked the style. Then, I found a big stain at the top of one shoe. Obviously someone returned it after she made a mess on this shoe. Returning them.

I LOVE the bright blue and red, but totally blanked on the fact that the tongue is a weird off-white - not the same white as the rest of the shoe. It frankly makes the shoe look dirty. I will be returning them.
