Loved these! But I did return them for a half size up, they seem to run smaller than the other Saucony Shadows I own.

I love the OG Shadows the best, but for comfort these are better and way wider. They do get dirty way too easy but man live them, I just bought and worn my first pair today from the Local Thrift Store down the St. From my house for $5 Bucks!!!!! Keep making Best shoes ever! FYI: Good Bboy or Break Dancing Shoes or if your a dancer just try them out you'll thank me later.

Beautiful shoes, very comfortable. However they are slightly too big lengthwise. I have saucony Jazz size 9.5, other saucony 9.5 ... so I assumed 9.5 would be just right. Sadly it's a little too big. And I wore them once to train so I cannot return/exchange them now..

I started wearing this shoe after the Lady Jazz was discontinued. Back and knee problems forced me to switch from running 20 miles a week to walking, and the Shadow 6000 easily handled the switch. I have a wide foot, with a pesky protruding bunion on my left foot, and I do have to order 1/2 size larger than my usual size, but the regular width gives me enough room. The feature that keeps me coming back year after year is the "cush"---this shoe is light and airy, and is really the most comfortable running/walking shoe I have ever owned. I hope it is never discontinued.

I've purchased and worn out 4 pair of these shoes over the last 15 years. They are the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. I'm not a runner, but use them for walking, and they're great. I hope you never stop making them.

Loved that this shoe was still available. It has excellent cushioning. It has a relatively wide toe box but still fits well at the heel. I wear an 81/2 in the Saucony Triumph but an 8 in the Shadow fits perfectly.

It's a great shoe. It holds up for about 450-500 miles, well-cushioned, comes in wide for those of us who don't have delicate little feet, requires absolutely no breaking in. It's the kind of shoe that makes you say "Aah" when you put it on for the first time. I've been wearing them for at least 15 years, and as long as Saucony keeps making them I'll keep wearing them.

This has just the right amount of cushioning and support. I need a wide, and this one offers a wide option, which is perfect for me. It's hard to find, so I've tried a lot of other models over several years, but always come back and now order online. I like the neutral color that doesn't clash with either of my running club uniforms. I hope it never gets discontinued.

I wear this shoe for tennis. It is the only shoe that has conquered plantar fasciitis. But since I wear it for tennis, I'd like a neutral color - white please. I keep buying the same original color because it's the closest to white and I can't afford shoes for every tennis outfit I own. Also, I tried Jazz, but it doesn't have the side support that the Shadow has.

I have been running long distance/cross country with Saucony Shadow shoes since 1996-High School. I have bone spurs on my heals, and I've had NO blisters or aches and pains when I run in the Shadow 5000 or 6000 shoes. At one point I went to a running store and tried on every pair of running shoe for a better looking, more modern shoe, but nothing felt as good as the Saucony Shadow 6000. I have normal arches and a slight inward pronation when I run. I like my running shoes to fit snug with little wiggle room. These shoes give the support and comfort I need for runs on and off trail ranging from 3-20 miles. I fear the day they stop making these shoes. Please do NOT change the shoe!!!! My only complaint is PLEASE CHANGE THE COLOR!!!! After a week of running off road, I am often teased about how gray and dingy my shoes look. Overall, comfort beats looks. I will continue to buy these shoes as long as Saucony makes them... but a little change in color will go a long way!!

Simplicity is a wonderful thing! For that reason, I have run in the Saucony Shadow 6000 for two decades. Although not flashy or cool, I appreciate the stability, longevity and comfort of this shoe. I do not need bells and whistles built in to my running shoe so please keep this option available!

I have flat feet, knee issues and wear hunky orthodic inserts. I remove the liner that comes with the shoe for my own insert. The Shadow works for all those issues and accommodations. While I'm not a runner now, i do walk most days and this shoe gives me a good cushion and a good send off with each step. Please keep making the Shadow style, I need it.

The Shadow 6000 has been my shoe since I experienced a severe Achilles heel injury about 15 years ago. This is the only shoe with the support I need for walking, aerobics, and daily use! Please do not ever discontinue the Shadow 6000 for women. And I agree that other colors would be a great thing. I have just purchased shoe dye so I can experiment on my older Shadows. And, I just purchased silver sparkle laces for my new ones to give them a lift! Thank you, Saucony, for the Shadow 6000.

This is the only sneaker I can wear all day and my body feels good. I now have to wear all black footwear at work and need the shadow 6000 to be made in all black. I have bought NB and spiras and neither one has the support I need. Saucony: Please bring this shoe back into the stores and please make it in all black for people who have a uniform they have to adhere to at work. I love this shoe!

I have been buying this shoe for walking for many years. I was told this style was not in stock anymore. I was clearly upset. It is the best shoe for walking. I have never had a problem with this product. Please continue to make this available for us to purchase. I can count on it to be what I expect in quality and performance for my needs.

Have been buying this exact shoe for over 30 years! Used to run but now walk miles in them. Tried several other brands of shoes over the years but keep returning to my Shadow 6000. Please do not ever discontinue them!

I have been told that Saucony no longer makes this shoe. I have to say that I am terribly dissapointed in your company. I have worn this shoe for more than 25 years. Now it is no longer available in my size -- and probably soon in all sizes. I will have to find another shoe and I guarantee it won't be a Saucony.

I have had foot pain for the last year and a half. After getting a pair of these Saucony's, my foot pain is totally gone!!!! I've been to many docs and nothing worked. These sneakers are great to be in all day long. I power walk, run, and run errands in these shoes. I loved my first pair soooo much, that I just ordered two more!!!! This should last me a while, Definitely would recommend them.
