Customer Reviews Saucony Omni 20

I was so excited to get the Omni 20s. I have been wearing Omni for years. The 20s are a completely different design. They are too narrow and the toe box is too small. The shoe didn’t fit at all. Sizing up won’t help me due to the very narrow design compared to previous Omni versions.

Seems to run small. I like the cushioning and style and will order a size up with the hope that it fits.

The toe box is smaller than I expected and the shoe is tight across the top of the foot.

This shoe is true to size, and very comfortable. Removable insole a plus as my podiatrist will pad behind balls of my feet under insole. Nice cushion on insole. This will be my walking shoe.

I was so excited to discover that Saucony had finally brought back the Omni, but the Omni 20 model is a huge disappointment. They look great but the toe box is too narrow. I am a 6 1/2 medium and with my orthotic for over-pronation, I tried a 7 and a 7 1/2. Going up in size did not help. The last comfortable Omni was the 15, so sadly, after 20+ years of loyalty, I must give up on Saucony and find another brand that offers a wide toe box with narrow heel.

Very happy with these shoes. Very comfortable.

too long and not enough room in to box

Be aware that the toe cage has been narrowed on this model. The rest of the shoe is the same Omni Grid, but the upper part of the shoe, covering the span across the width of the toes, is narrower than previous models. If I could have ordered an Omni 19 I would have.

I have to have a wide size due to bunion surgery. No way did these fit like the "wides" they were supposed to be. Also, the soles of my feet burned when I stood in these for several minutes.

I'm not sure about these yet. I've been a loyal Saucony fan for decades, but it might be the time to try another brand. As others have said, the toe box is narrower than it used to be. The wider toebox and narrow heel were what sold me on Sauconys to begin with. I've only worn them once so far, but if they continue to cause some discomfort across the big toe, I'll have to send them back. And no, a larger size wouldn't work as they would be too long and floppy in the heel. Disappointed to say the least.

not the "wide" I am used to getting from Saucony

A bit long with narrowing toe, narrow in the width compared to other Saucony's I've owned in wide

I'm not certain what all manufacturers are doing these days - meaning they are ALL making their shoes narrower. "Wide" is not longer "wide". I used to use Saucony many years ago because their shoes where actually "wide" and fit my wide forefoot really well. In the past recent years, I switched to Brooks which fit really well, but in 2021 they narrowed their forefoot by 1/4" and would no longer fit my feet comfortably. I thought I would try Saucony once again in the "wide" version, and I couldn't be more disappointed. The forefoot felt okay, but this shoe was narrow over the arch area. When I tied the laces to keep my heel from slipping, my circulation was compromised and my feet felt numb. As for the cushioning, it was amazing and the shoe was well padded. The look and style of the shoe was pleasing to the eye. I wish manufacturers would get the message that not all feet are narrow and bring back a true "wide" to their shoes.

I have worn the Omni 18s and 19s as my go to running and walking shoes but am really disappointed with the 20. One of the nice things about the older versions is the width - I have a wider foot and they accommodated them well. This is a redesigned version that is much narrower, I compared with my 19s and it's least a 1/2 inch narrower in the widest part of the shoe. No thanks, sending these back. Very disappointed. Agree with the previous reviewer about the new cut. It's like a totally different shoe.
