Saucony Men's ProGrid Jazz 13 Running Shoe

Got the shoe, and was surprised to find it fit pretty good, doesn't feel like it has to even be broken in. :) It helped that I read about how the shoe is kinda small compare to other companies sizes, I saw a recommendation to get one size larger, so instead of my normal 12 Wide, I went with 13 wides, and they fit fine.The shoe is quite light, and you can definitely feel air getting through them when you go running, feels nice to have some air on the foot, this is the first shoe that has allowed good air flow through. I usually get shoes like Nikes, and Air Nikes.I' ve only owned them for about a week, and have only used them a couple times, will update later after I've put some more hours in. :DEdit 8/22/2013 - Shoes are still going strong, run in them about 4 times a week, no sign of wear. Still nice comfy, and breathing shoe.Edit 11/13/2013 - Been running the usual, ran outside a few times, shoes still holding up well.

Supposed to be a neutral shoe but seems like it might work for a moderate pronator. I supinate and need, at least, a neutral shoe. I also prefer a shoe that isn't too rigid and these are a bit stiff. The heel is shaped like a reversed horseshoe sounds like a horse clopping along too, the heel is a bit on the high side too. Altogether typical decent Saucony construction, durable but not flexible enough for me. Oh well, sometimes you do have to buy in the store if you find anything in the the stores anymore...If you supinate & want cushioning with a more flexible sole then look at the Nike Air Pegasus 26 that worked well for me.Maybe these will soften up a bit after a month or so of walking on concrete surfaces, maybe not...

I am very pleased with this running shoe. It is definitely must buy if you're a big guy. My weight fluctuates between 207 and 227 depending on whether I am running regularly or not. And at 227, I have a very hard time find a comfortable running shoe. Well, I am 227 now, I the normal problems I have with my shins completely disappeared from the first run in Saucony Men's ProGrid Jazz 13. Now that I have found a decent running shoe for us big guys, I will be running much more and losing the extra pounds. These shoes are very lite. Almost like you're not wearing anything. My previous running shoes, Adidas, felt extremely heavy and unwieldy by comparison. I plan on buying two more pair, because they were very reasonably priced and don't want to have to search through all the shoes available when these wear out. Plus I plan on training for a marathon; so I think consistency would be an advantage.

My Amazon purchase went very well. Shipping was prompt and everything arrived in good order.Saucony, on the other hand, has a serious problem with sizing. This will definitely deter many potential buyers from considering Saucony when purchasing a running shoe.Their sizes are all one size too small. If you're ordering a wide shoe, you will need to go one size up on that as well.Example: (9E) with Saucony would need to be (10EE) in order to get the proper size.Saucony makes a very good running shoe. They simply need to get hold of this problem and get serious about their sizing, or be willing to accept the loss in sales.Ultimately, Amazon made the return very easy. I did, however, locate the same shoe locally, on sale, for half the price. But, even in the local store, I had to purchase one size larger all the way around.I hope this will serve to guide the next potential buyer during their purchase.

I have had several of these shoes and love them. I'm a heavier runner with high arches and this shoe feels great. I had trouble finding it in stores because they are of course continually upgrading. Will probably buy a couple of pairs next go around as I love them.

If you want to walk without shin splints, without your feet getting over-heated, and to have a very comfortable shoe... These are IT. We have been walking 5-12 miles a day for a month, and these shoes have held up so well, they still look brand new. The toe "box" area is very room, the shoes have very comfortable arch support, and the shape of the bottom of the sneaker seem to help propel you forward, so walking is a pleasure.

Usually wear size 10.5 wide or ex-wide. These were at least 1 size too small. If you look at the sizing chart, the inches don't look right. They look like great shoes, but the label says 10.5w, but they are definitely not 10.5 wide. Good thing Amazon has a great return policy. I would like to reorder, but I'm not sure what size I'd order...one size larger or the same assuming that one pair was mislabeled. I never wear anything bigger than a size 11, but almost all my athletic shoes are 10.5 D, 2E, or 4E. Was there a mistake in the pair I received, or are Saucony shoes sized that far off from all other brands?

I have always liked the Hurricane series and the Jazz series of running shoes. This was another great shoe, as expected.
