I have had foot pain for the last year and a half. After getting a pair of these Saucony's, my foot pain is totally gone!!!! I've been to many docs and nothing worked. These sneakers are great to be in all day long. I power walk, run, and run errands in these shoes. I loved my first pair soooo much, that I just ordered two more!!!! This should last me a while, Definitely would recommend them.

Best, most stable and supportive running shoe.

Best shoe for me for nearly twenty years. Really works for my high instep. The only running shoe I can wear since my back surgery. I wish you still made the trail model but I'm really relieved that these are available again.

Best pair of shoes I own.

PostedJune 3, 2013
I Run: Not at all
I Use This Product For: Walking
I broke my ankle 4 yrs. ago & I don't have the range of motion you should have. I use an orthotic in my shoe & these sneakers are the BEST shoe I have because they are raised in the back which is what I need. I wore one pair out & had trouble finding them. I was so upset because I tried many other kinds & none were as good as this style of sneaker. I was thrilled when I found them on this website. Hope you keep carrying the Shadow 6000 sneaker for a long time.
Thanks- Linda

I walk the treadmill everyday. These shoes are great. I have been wearing them for years and on my last order, got 2 pair because I was afraid the shadow 6000 would be discontinued and I would be caught without. Love the wide toe box.

This is the only shoe I can walk well in

PostedMay 13, 2013
I Use This Product For: Casual Wear, Walking
I was diagnosed with M.S. 20 years ago. I have difficulty lifting my left foot and am at risk for tripping. I have tried many shoes and this is the only shoe I can find that I can walk in comfortably and with much more of a sense of security. Please keep making this shoe. I cannot run, but I can walk well and this shoe is a big part of my being able to say this.

This shoe is an extension of my foot

I have been running, now walking, in this shoe for over 20 years. I was so upset when I heard it was to be discontinued. So I called Saucony and Road Runner Sports( I live in Costa Rica so I have to order on line) to BEG for it's return. I am one happy customer knowing my feet will remain happy, happy and blister free while I walk in my 15th 3Day 60 mile Susan Komen Breast Cancer Walk. My one wish...a new and exciting color...but I'm not complaining!!!

The best walking shoe

PostedApril 24, 2013
I Use This Product For: Casual Wear, Walking
I have waorn this shoe for years--even though my right big toe gpes through the mesh, they are the only walking shoe I can wear that does not make my back hurt. I also have trouble with my feet and these are the only shoes that don't make them hurt. I am not a spring chicken and comfort takes the lead in my choices. These shoes fill the bill and they even look ok with the hole in the toe! Thanks Saucony for bringing them back.

I have been wearing Shadow 6000 for over 20 years. When it looked like I wouldn't be able to buy Shadow 6000, I tried to find a replacement. I tried shoe after shoe. I had to return them all. There is no replacement for Shadow 6000. Please don't stop making it. We need it.

Truly.......the one and only!
Posted May 14, 2013
I am but another of your loyal customers who has been wearing this shoe for over 20 years. Back then when I developed back problems this was the ONLY shoe that brought complete comfort allowing me to walk outside again!
I am unable to wear ANY other kind of shoe, and believe me, I have tried, I even had shoes made to order and finally had to give them away too, as I get back pain within hours of wearing. Please consider producing this last in other colorways! Black also would prove most useful for......evening wear!? Have we not proved there is a strong market for this model!? I cannot thank you enough for this irreplacable footwear.

Am so happy you still make this model! Have worn this style for more than ten years and it still fits perfectly the first day I put on my new pair every six months. Can't wait until my size is back in stock!

Have been wearing this great shoe for many years and I purchased multiple pairs when I found out they have been discontinued. Comfortable, durable and just the right heel height. The lower heel heights on many styles give me leg pain
and these are just perfect for me.

I've loved the Shadow 6000 for at least 10 years, probably more, was really upset when it was discontinued, and as soon as it was reissued I ordered more pairs, just in case. It's a terrific shoe, fits well, great cushioning, comes in a wide size, lasts a good 400-500 miles, reasonably affordable. I go through about five pairs a year walking about 40 miles a week on a treadmill at a fast pace,
Please don't ever discontinue it.

I Use This Product For: Walking
I have worn the Shadow 6000 for 20 years. Have a number of foot, knee and back issues and this shoe is the only one that brings relief. I have a narrow heel and these fit great. The elevated heels take pressure off my low arch and the heel cushioning softens the foot strike on hard surfaces which hurts my back.

Over the years I have bought other Saucony models, and after trying the others out I used them only for walking. I have always come back to the Shadow 6000. As a previous reviewer said, they do not require breaking in, even before a longish run.
Please do not discontinue them!
