Saucony has raised the bar of quality by incorporating EVERUN technology into the midsole of its shoes, setting its own standard in the running world. Like iconic brands such as Adidas with Boost and Asics with Gel, Saucony stands out with its own innovation. The term "ISO" in the models indicates the presence of ISOFIT technology, built with plastic pieces that not only secure the laces but also allow for a perfect fit to the foot. Saucony's wide last allows for an individualized fit, especially appreciated by those who use orthotics.

Finally, Saucony's sock-like fit is the crown jewel. The tongue, integrated into the stretch mesh inner lining, fits like a glove to the foot, providing incomparable support and stability.

Saucony shoes for runners who want or need stability in their stride.

GUIDE 10

The new Saucony Guide 10 is designed for pronating runners weighing 70 to 80 kg.

Designed and built to correct mild pronation and keep the foot straight.

As with the Guide 9, the strengths of these shoes are cushioning and stability. In this new 2017 version, the midsole and shoe structure have been improved.

The upper opening has also been changed to achieve greater breathability.

As for the outsole materials, TRI-FLEX is combined with IBR+ for greater grip and durability.

Saucony shoes for runners with a neutral stride

TRIUMPH ISO 4

Saucony's flagship shoe. One of the favorite shoes for neutral-stride runners. To talk about Triumph is to talk about security, a sure bet.

Made for runners weighing more than 80 kg (or lighter runners looking for cushioning) with a neutral stride. The best new feature is the EVERUN cushioning throughout the entire shoe, providing greater responsiveness and rebound.

Likewise, a new mesh makes the upper lighter and more flexible than that of the Triumph Iso 2. Drop 8mm, allowing them to be fast since they have the necessary cushioning with Everun. 297 grams in weight.

They still feature ISOFIT so that the shoe perfectly adapts to the runner's movement. The outsole incorporates Tri-Flex to be more flexible and achieve better grip on the surface being run on.

RIDE 10

This model stands out for being a very balanced shoe in all its characteristics: lightness, stability, cushioning, and it's also fast.

The Ride 10 is suitable for runners weighing up to 85 kg. It is recommended more for long training runs than for competing, unless it is at not-very-fast paces.

Designed for runners with a neutral stride or pronators who use insoles, as it has a fairly universal last.

Drop: 8mm and weight: 265 gr.

Upper with Flexfilm, a series of heat-sealed and thin straps that cover a good part of the foot, from the midfoot to the toe of the shoe.

This shapes the upper part and achieves a good fit.

The midsole is composed of three different materials: Powergrid, with a hardness similar to EVA, but with a greater cushioning effect. SSL EVA (from Saucony) and SRC (Super Rebound Compound).

Outsole: thanks to the lug pattern and larger grooves, good traction is achieved, whether on asphalt or dirt track.

KINVARA 8 – Natural Running

Reactive, almost racing flat running shoes with good cushioning, thanks to EVERUN. They are almost racing flats because they are built and have the necessary cushioning for training.

Anyone who wants a racing flat for competing should choose the Fastwitch. Its reactivity, which is both smooth and effective, places it among the most reliable in its range.

Drop: 4 mm and weight: 215 grams.

Upper: Engineered Mesh technical mesh that provides more flexibility and fit than previous models.

TRI-Flex outsole with wide lugging that helps minimize impact, and also increases joint protection with each stride.

FASTWITCH – 8 Racing Flats

The Saucony FastWitch 8 are presented as one of the fastest shoes of 2017.

It is intended for runners seeking maximum speed in their competitions.

Drop: 4 mm and weight: 198 grams.

Upper made of highly breathable technical mesh that enhances the support and comfort of your feet during the run. Seamless, less weight, and prevents chafing.

Midsole formed by SSL EVA foam, with a double layer in the midfoot area to correct runners who have a slight pronation.

Its construction makes the shoe reactive. Outsole that stands out for its excellent traction, which is achieved thanks to PowerTrac material.

TYPE A8 – Radical Racing Flats

The TYPE A6 are Saucony's fastest shoes. If you wear Type A, it's because running is in your blood. Their lower profile is perfect for higher intensity races. And their firm and reactive midsole allows for a faster stride.

They are a perfect substitute for track spikes, if we don't want to overload our muscles so much.

Drop: 4 mm and weight: 198 grams.

Absolutely lightweight. Ideal for distances from 5K to a half marathon. Whether on asphalt, tartan track or cross-country.
