Customer Reviews Saucony Omni 21

This is the best shoe ever. Supportive, comfortable and love the color. No more foot pain.

Liked the Omni 21. Wish it had more structure. I do not like the mesh shoes. I need more support.

I normally wear a 12 narrow. I purchased this in 12 medium. I have been finding 12s short lately and medium may or may not work for me. I use an orthotic and the shoe fits great. I walk several miles a day and am finding them very comfortable. I am giving it 4 stars because unfortunately it does not come in narrow width. And it is kinda pricey.

I love these runners. I have been wearing the Omni since 2002 ish. Functionally, they are amazing but I knocked off one star because out of the entire Saucony line, these are by far the ugliest designs. I'd love to see more creativity and colours like the other Saucony styles.

I like the support of the shoes just wish they were wider. I ordered wide but they do not seem to be wide enough.

I've been purchasing these shoes for several years now in the wide width and they are very comfortable. I wish they offered more color options for me in my size (9 1/2 wide).

This shoe is very comfortable however, the left shoe squeaks when I am walking. It is very disrupting in a quiet room with other people.

I've been wearing Sauconys for a LOOOOOOONG time. This was the first pair of wide width sneakers that weren't wide enough. Loved the color, though.

I purchased this shoe because it was available in wide. This is the second time I've returned a Saucony wide shoe. Their wide is not a true wide shoe. Beautiful product -- nice quality, just not wide enough.

Have worn the shoes for several weeks and find that they are not as wide or as cushioned as before. The material is skimpy and the laces cheap flat ones that shred. I was very disappointed that the quality and sizing of this shoe has detoriated. I have worn this style for years but won't buy again

The toe box is too small, so the shoe it too tight. Not that comfortable. Not as good as previous shoes.

The shoe is too narrow for a wide width and not a stability shoe as advertised. It is lightweight and the fabric is nice. Just doesn't work as expected.

I've used Saucony Omni in Medium width for years, and I unfortunately do not like the Omni 21. I returned the Omni 21 and bought another pair of Omni 20s. I hope the next model of the Omni will not be like the 21. The 21 shoe seems much narrower than the previous model 20. The 21 is too narrow for me; and therefore, too tight. I have a narrow foot, but the medium size of previous Omni models still always fit well. The 21 tongue is too short and not flexible. The back of the 21 shoe / the heel seems to have been cut lower, which caused my heel to slip. The 21 has flat shoelaces and I prefer the oval / round shoelaces that have been used in previous Omni models.

Have worn Saucony running shoes for over 40 years for their fit and cushioning. Every time a new version of a model I loved was revamped or no longer available, I was always able to find a replacement within the Saucony family. (The old Hurricane model comes to mind). Not anymore. Somewhere during the pandemic the offerings were drastically revamped. What has emerged is a very elongated style with minimal cushioning even in comparison to my worn out ones. It's a shame. Perhaps the revamping was more for the elite runner who wanted a more light weight shoe. I don't know. I've run half and whole marathons in my Sauconys and finishing first wasn't my goal. I just wanted that fit and that high level of cushioning and shock absorption that allows you to have a good run. Especially now. Boy I miss that!

Sad to say, I must say goodbye to my long-time favorite shoe. I have purchased Omnis for a long, long time. My feet loved them. But this new pair has less "shoe" and expects the laces to make up the difference. It seems as if the cut is different too. My feet hurt in this shoe. I've tried wearing them just a few hours at a time to break them in, but nothing helps. I'm sorry the company has made this big change.

I expected a lot from this running shoe brand but it turned out to be the worst of all shoe brands. Cheap, unknown footwear brands are even better than this As an overpronator and someone who has experienced foot and lower leg problems, I always choose the right running shoes. I've worn other known running shoe brands which were really comfortable and performed as expected or more than expected. But this pair of shoes wasn't just uncomfortable but caused a lot pain on my feet. The price isn't really worth it. In fact, this pair shouldn't really be in the market. I wonder if they even did research on this pair. I WON'T RECOMMEND THIS PAIR OF SHOES AND EVEN THIS BRAND.

I have been wearing Omni wides for years and years. So disappointed in these. The wides are no longer wide. They were truly the only shoe I could wear, and now left with nothing. Why, oh why, did Saucony rework this shoe, making the wide a medium?

I have been running in Omnis since the 13s and unfortunately cannot recommend this product. I have raced and trained for races from the 5k to the marathon over 20+ years and have turned to the Omni as a regular trainer for overpronation and stability support. With the 21s, the differences are readily apparent: too many changes, not enough arch support, the tongue is quite different, sizing off. I cannot run in or rely on these shoes - and these are the exact shoes I in the past ten years relied upon to remain injury free. If you are a casual runner who only runs a handful of miles a week, these may work out for you. I hope to see the 22s return to older version support and stability. I am highly dismayed by this most recent iteration. These are not the shoes many of us veteran runners would like to have in our repertoire.

I bought these a month ago and I absolutely love them.

Love my Omni 21s. I wear custom orthotics and these were recommended to me because I needed a strong medial post. Very comfortable too.
