Men's Bullet

We took the original Bullet, a 1985 track shoe with spikes and all, and made it street legal. With a super low profile, these nylon/suede shoes with a rubber outsole maintain the original sleek silhouette. See the Women’s Bullet

If you are into minimalist running shoes, this works great. It fits like a glove because it is extremely flexible in the forefoot.

I bought this shoe for the gym - strictly for weight training. This shoe gives just enough support almost a barefoot type feeling. Love training calves in these shoes. The shoe allows you to get those deep extensions. The flat foot design is also great for squats and leg press. The minimal heel takes all the unwanted pressure off your lower back. This is an extremely durable shoe. I also received multiple comments from coworkers the couple of times I wore them to work. One of those shoes’s you wish you would have bought 2 pairs at the same time.

Looks good. Just don't overuse them for sports.

Bought for their good looks. Excellent wear for the summer. Ultra light. Sole not very durable (expect one summer of wearing it daily). Not a sport shoe per se, more of a sneaker that you can wear when doing sports casually. If you're looking for an actual shoe to run, Saucony have much better models. This one is a fashionable shoe that you can run in. Just don't overdo it.
Lightness and grip makes it excellent for yoga. I just happen to yoga barefoot, but it's a great shoe for that.
Excellent bang for the buck.

I love these shoes because they are so light! I really don't like all that cushion that most shoes give you, and these are perfect in that regard. They are honestly the only shoes I wear.

I Use This Product For: Running, Casual Wear, Cross Training, Walking
I bought my first pair of Bullet's in May 2011. I wore them for a month straight while exploring Europe. They were filthy at the end of it all(I got the White/Navy), but I simply washed them.
I kept them as my go-to sneakers and wore them with anything from khaki shorts to navy pants.
Then, as the earlier reviewer did, one day I discovered they were amazing for futsal and training for soccer in general. I've used them on turf fields with good results and even on natural grass for practices.
The only reason I gave it one "4" and not a "5" in durability is because if you use them for soccer they tear at the tip between the fabric and the rubber. I'm sure they would last longer if you only wear them for style or running.
I just got my second pair 2 days ago!

This shoe is awesome. It looks absolutely amazing with the low profile and suede accents. My only complaint is that it runs a tad narrow but besides that I'm completely satisfied. Just a great, everyday shoe.

Good Buy

This shoe is nice and sleek. This shoe can be used for sports but it is not recommended but there is one reason I gave it 5 bars for performance. The reason i gave it 5 bars for performance is because after I realized it was not the sporty type shoe( it being fragile and nice looking not in a sporty way though) I thought I could use this for futsal. I used it for futsal and HEY! it worked great. Durability is a small issue though because only after 2 or 3 months the back of the foam has begun to erode with use, well that may be my fault because I wear them everywhere. If you were to use them for futsal only use them for futsal. Otherwise good shoe.

I find it hard to wear anything else. These bullets are immensely comfortable and fit like a glove. The soles are pinchably thin, but quite durable. I feel like a ninja, a ballerina, and a gecko-- all in one! These are my first Sauconys, but definitely not my last!

I bought my first pair two years ago and they are still going strong! Been through the wash a couple times, no problems. So comfortable!
Ample room in the toe box to allow the natural spread of toes that mimics barefoot running style with just enough protection.
I find them comfortable to wear all day despite what I've read from other reviewers. Another bonus, they take up little room when traveling and are great for casual wear too.

It hugs your foot very well, giving you excellent control.

I Run: As a social activity, For fun, To stay in shape

I bought this shoe because I was looking for a great shoe to exercise in. Hitting the gym, going for a casual run, or even playing a little soccer all work well. It does not have a thick sole and no impressive arch support like you'll find in a running or tennis shoe. With such a thin sole, I expect the shoe to wear out sooner. I only wear them when exercising so to meet my goal of lasting 7 months is easy enough..
When they came in I immediately liked the look but I noticed that the Saucony symbol on the side had a small thread sticking out. I ordered them in gray/orange, which looks spectacular and much better than similarly colored shoes that some family members bought in other stores.
The only downside is that I noticed the edges of some of the gray areas appear to have some residue left over from the orange (paint?). The orange color clearly has something added to it to make it look so bright and whatever that is, got on the gray a little so it gives them a dirtier look; as if some orange rubbed off onto the gray a little. I'm hoping that after using them a little more, the residue will go away, leaving the whole shoes looking clean and crisp.
I ordered it in a size 14, since I have some big feet. All my other size 14 shoes fit fine but I found that these were a little too snug and I should probably have ordered the wider (W) pair. If they sold size 14.5 I would definitely have ordered those instead. The shoe isn't too small but I'm not yet used to such a tight fit. However, it does give me excellent control in whatever I'm doing.
Overall, I'm very satisfied with these shoes. They were my first Saucony purchase, and I am definitely going to shop for shoes on their website again in the future. If you're on the fence about buying it, I recommend doing so. Just keep in mind the tighter-than normal fit (not that it's too small though) and you're good.

II do extensive walking/jogging daily Monday-Friday with weekends off. I needed good work out footwear. THE BULLET is the ticket for me. Lightweight, yet tons of support and comfort. My feet are not as nearly fatigued as they were in my old athletic shoes.
I love the design, and the color, and it is great the SAUCONY makes their products in so many colors and earth friendly materials. We all need to lessen our foot print on earth and I can't think of a better way than SAUCONY !!!!
The price was unbelievably affordable and the quality is above standard. I highly recommend SAUCONY to anyone looking for a fit and work out footwear that only adds to your regime. When shopping check out the website for any items they have on sale. The savings is HUGE.
I can't say enough good about this company and their products. HAPPY HEALTH EVERYONE !!!!

cool old-style everyday shoe

i've run in Saucony exclusively for almost 10 years now. so i thought it be nice to get a casual pair if they ever did the retro thing like what Puma & Asics have been doing. i remember the Bullet from my youth, in college - so i just had to have 'em when they came back. i love the colors & the look - low & sleek. they are very comfortable - more comfortable than they look, actually (because they are such a slim shoe. my one secret is, if you run in Saucony, order a 1/2 size up if you are going to use these a casual knock-about shoe.

Great for walking, running, and driving

PostedJune 9, 2012
I Run: Not at all
I Use This Product For: Running, Casual Wear, Walking
I use this as an everyday shoe. I walk in it at work, and at home. I definitely find myself more comfortable with these on, and rarely if ever, am sore on my feet.
They are also really nice for driving. They give a true feel for my clutch, and it allows the balls of my feet/toes to hug the pedals a little bit.
I got these shoes about a little over a year ago. My concern, as I had read reviews, was that they weren't durable if you did anything out in woods, etc... I'll say, my shoes are in perfect condition (aside from some scuff marks on, and the suede getting beaten up).
The only downside (as with any minimalist shoe), is that you really shouldn't use it for walking/running anywhere with large roots/rocks on the ground. You will feel EVERYTHING. It's not fun, unless you're trying to climb around places.
I used to get New Balance 574's (went through 3 pairs). These are definitely going to be repeat purchases... whenever this pair I've got now falls apart.

Great shoe, great product.

This has to be one of the best shoes I have ever worn. I've got flat feet, so a bit of arch support is nice to have. Considering the light weight of these shoes, they provide just enough support to keep my foot from cramping up. The raised heel forces me to walk/run on the ball of my foot, which also helps to keep my feet free from pain. They fit great, and feel wonderful.
I usually go through a pair of shoes in 6 months or less, but with these, I've had them last me 8 months, to a year, depending on use. Not to mention, they are a great driving shoe! Light, perfect roll on the back of the heel, and the thinner sole up by the toes helps clutch feel.
Love these shoes!
