It may be early for a review, but after two runs and about 20 miles running on them, I love these shoes! The shoes are really light and comfortable and I don't feel the support is getting on the way. No issues at all.

I bought size 44 Tempus and am amazed about the preformance it supports stability and gives with each step a boost going forward you can really feel it. This shoe is top of the line if you are looking for stability support and comfort.

Great feel and comfort. First time purchaser of Saucony and the Tempus was what I have been waiting for and needed.

I was looking to see other options for stability shoes because I had been a long time wearer of the Guide. The Tempus was a fantastic stability shoe that is very plush and soft. The arch felt a little aggressive at first, but the more I wore the Tempus the more natural it felt. I wore the shoe for a whole day before running in it. The toe box felt spacious like my toes had room to splay out and I wouldn't have to worry about rubbing and I typically wear standard width shoes. The upper was nice and secure. I usually need to use the extra shoe lace hole, but didn't feel the need to with the Tempus. I have only worn it about a handful of times, but I will definitely be adding this to my rotation of shoes.

Have worn approx 12 iterations of the Hurricanes over the past 15yrs+ and was excited to try the new Tempus as it looks like the Hurricanes are getting phased out. Unfortunately, the Tempus seems to run narrower (i do have wider than avg feet but generally fit into medium width sneakers) and had a hot spot almost instantly on my left foot (which does run wider than my right foot). As this is a newer model, the 'wide' models are only available in gray. Will update the Comfort rating once I can get a proper fit (Zappos wouldnt let me leave it blank so gave a 1 star for now).

I wish there was more colorways to choose from. I like the banner 15 I purchased, which has its unique, special color I adore.

I was pleasantly surprised that this 'wide' shoe is actually wide. However, as I'm normally a Brooks wearer, I'm going to have to send these back as they're smaller than a Brooks 10 (If they have a 10.5 Wide I'll re-order).

I have been riding on Saucony for a number of years and over many many miles. They are my go to shoe even with the various and sundry ailments I've developed as I've aged into my running (68 years old). However, I think these new Tempus, this is my second pair now are probably better than any shoe I've ever owned. My only comment is I believe they feel a little bit heavier than they actually are. I think that's because I got the wide version and they just look bigger than the prior versions , however, I am gearing up for my next half-marathon and expected the Tempus will be on my feet. Please keep making great shoes!!

Looks, colorway, arch support were perfect! Unfortunately, though these wore a little too small. I have typically worn a 13D sneaker in the past but I'm finding I need a 13.5 in most sneakers nowadays. Seems like toeboxes are getting shorter and shorter these days

Love the fit and the PWRun PB in the forefoot. The PWRun PB in the heel is very explosive, which is great for the start of the day, but for me my legs tend to tire as the day goes on and my gait is not as consistent and the PB in the heel starts to feel unstable and squishy. I have a pair of Saucony Freedom Crossports which has a denser configuration of PB and it is perfect all day long, you just don't get that explosive bounce. If the Tempus had the denser PB the shoe would be perfect for me.

They seem great. They seem to fit well, but mine had stains on them and scuff marks. They were repackaged in another box. I will keep them, because its just easier and they fit.

Overall a great stability shoe. It needs a break in period though. I've found that it feels stiff and the EVA frame feels a protrusive at the arch for about the first 50-80km but then starts to feel softer and more lively. From that point, it prevents pronation really well without feeling like a stability shoe. I'd love it more if it had a bit more of a rocker but it's still a very reliable daily trainer/cruiser. For those who need stability features, it can handle tempo paces nicely too.

Awesome shoe. A quick stability shoe I can PR with from the 5K to the marathon! Also, built to last, not only feels comfortable but sturdy too. Size Fit: Fits 1 Size Too Big Width Fit: Fits True to Size How do you use this product? Running/Triathlon On average, how many miles do you run per week? 10-40 miles

I wish I could find them at a store so I could compare sizes. They look very large, and are at least one size larger than my orthotic inserts, but I'm not sure whether to order down one full size or one-half size.

I've put about 50 miles on the Tempus - very happy with this shoe! I overpronate and it is really tough to find a stability show that doesn't feel like a brick. This one is light, and feels like it wants to go fast on speed days while also being solid and supportive on a long run. I've done a half marathon training run and plan on doing a full marathon with it. Only complaint is the Mars color is definitely more salmon - not quite as orange as pictured lol but doesn't detract from the shoe

Awesome support while still being light, if you want that this is the shoe for you. Very comfortable and has a good fit, although I've experienced issues with my toes rubbing against the shoe even though I have toe room. Overall I would highly recommend these shoes for long runs.

Love the shoes really comfortable and supportive. My only worry is the sole is too thin. I have already got a bit of the back of the sole coming up its only a corner so i am going to glue it. However its only been a few weeks so i worry about the longevity.

This shoe takes some getting use to. The very thing that makes it so stable, its flared, wide sole, also makes it awkward to walk or run in initially. The light weight makes it feel barely there. I do not know how these bare up to wear, because I have used them only a short time. The cushioning seems more than adequate in my personal experience, yet I have no experience with the most advanced cushioning currently available. Unfortunately, the pair I received suffered from a tendancy to flake color and foam from the heel cushion. I do not know how usual this problem is for the Tempus

My son overpronates and wears orthotics. He has been wearing the Hoka Arahi for a couple of years and has really liked them, but he's been waiting on the Arahi 7 to release or a new color to be available and...no luck...Anyways, that brought him to try the Saucony Tempus after reading really strong reviews on stability and cushioning. He has really liked this shoe and says the stability is as good as the Arahi and, though it is slightly less cushioned, they feel great after a long day on his feet or a run. He wears a 9.5 in Hoka, a 10 in Nike, and the 10 in the Saucony Tempus fit him great. It is slightly more narrow than Hoka or NB, but similar to Nike running shoes.
I'd also recommend:
Hoka, New Balance
