What Saucony say about minimalist running and the shoes... Going minimal all at once is risky because minimal shoes ask more of different muscles in your feet and calves. Instead, we recommend using a minimal shoe for one or two of your runs each week. This will strengthen those less developed muscles and help you realise a new and better overall level of f

awesome shoe
By former brooks customer
This shoe is by far the best running shoe I have ever had. I went to this saucony from brooks because of pain the brooks adrenaline was causing my lower body. This shoe has a free feel very light wieght, almost a natural barefoot feel when your running. If you need lots of arch support this probably isn't the shoe for you. On the other hand if you have strong arches this shoe is a must!. I'm ordering several pairs just in case they become hard to find!!!!!!

Would have given it 5 stars but...
By Juancho Forlanda
Like most of the reviews on this shoe, I was impressed by its light weight and natural feel. I bought my pair in May 2011. I broke it in during the 100th running of the Bay to Breakers in 2011. Even as a new pair, it felt great and gave my feet that extra bounce.Before the year (2011) was over, the sides started to get worn out and a hole started to develop (just where the first knuckle of my outermost toe pressed against--on both feet). After more use, the holes got bigger to about 1/2 inch in diameter.I hope the newer versions have been improved in that area; maybe, just maybe, I'll give them another try.
