Meets all of my running needs. I bought them online based on their reviews. This style has been updated. This is my first time running in a Saucony shoe. They compare favorably to other brands I have run in over the years ( Adidas and Brooks). I will consider Saucony when I make my next purchase.

I run mostly on a treadmill. I am a forefoot runner. These shoes are flexible enough to be comfortable. I bought them online so did not try them on . I chose them based on reviews.
