I LOVE the traditional feel of the guide 3 and 4, however, I've been forced to experiment with different brands because I do not like the 5's. I understand the minimalist movement, but I wish Saucony would have two versions of the Guide....8 mm heel drop and 12 mm heel drop.......I miss the shoes I love!!!!

I tend to pronate and these shoes are great. I also like the arch support. They're a really durable shoe and I've only had a blister or two once (when running longer distances) in the beginning. Also, I like them much better than the Guide 5s, which tend to be a bit wider in my experience.

I love these shoes and they are so durable! I take 3 crosstraining classes a week and these give the stability and support I need. They are so comfortable and there is no breaking in period. They are great from day 1.

Left Saucony for Brooks for awhile. Came back to Saucony! Using these shoes to train for a triathlon. I am a large runner and these shoes are working for me. Reason I left Saucony was because inevitably I would always lose a toe nail. This time I ordered a 1/2 size up and they are working perfect.

Saw this shoe advertised at Peltz and decided to give it a try. Tried it on and knew immediately that it would work for my 5-mile walk-run. I normally wear a 10 narrow in a dress shoe, but the 11M worked perfectly! Gave me plenty of room in the toe box and it didn't slip in the heel. Unfortunately, apparently, it has now been discontinued and replaced with another style. In 6 months I will probably be forced to try the replacement! :(

I really love these, shoes! There very compfy, no blisters. My feet are wide and I really love the room it provides. The only thing is the tread wears off quicker than other gym shoes I have used.

I'm an advanced beginner runner who was looking for a moderately priced shoe that offered good support- especially in the arch. So far I've been really happy with this shoe. Good cushioning and support. No blisters. No pain. I run around 20 miles a week, and Saucony's are my go-to shoe. I'd definitely buy these again.

I was disappointed that I could not get the Pro Grid 3 in my size so opted for the Pro Grid 4. It runs narrow and is uncomfortable. I am hoping that the shoe will fit better after breaking in. I have never had to break in my previous pairs of Pro Grid 3.

I was disappointed that I could not get the Pro Gr
Posted April 14, 2012
A running shoe has to be comfortable before you walk out of the store.If not, it means that that model is not good for your foot so perhaps beter to try something else. Important is to take half to one size bigger than you normally wear !!

At the recommendation of a friend I recently switched from another brand to the Guide in an effort to avoid blisters and toe nail loss any time I ran >10 miles. I am now hooked and haven't lost any toe nails since :o) This will be my 2nd pair (the 1st pair still holding up with about 250 miles on them). I alternate these shoes with the Mirage and love the Guide for longer distances, trails, rain/snow. They provide just the amount of support I need, are still fairly lightweight, and don't get slippery on more technical trails or in wet weather. I've worn these shoes for marathon/half training and races, on a variety of surfaces, and in all kinds of weather. They ROCK!!

Horribly made - fell apart after 40 miles.

I had previously worn the Omni 9 and they lasted 400+ miles. I bought the Guide 4 at a running store and loved how they fit. However, I was shocked to see the mesh break through after less than 40 miles. I am so disappointed since they are not cheap shoes and should last more than 6 weeks. Am extremely leary to buy Saucony products again.

Top of shoe wore out prematurely. Shoe wore through from the inside out where my large toe is through the mesh. I really thought that these shoes would have lasted longer than 6 months since I only use them to walk in. I had these shoes fitted for my walking style at a running shop.

Excellent Shoe - relieved sore, painful arches
PostedFebruary 1, 2012
I Run: Competitively, To set a personal best, To stay in shape
I Use This Product For: Running
These shoes were purchased for my daughter who runs for her high school cross-country and tack teams. This is the second pair she has had and loves the fit. They are very comfortable for her. The first pair relieved her painful arch problem and lasted through a very wet, soggy cross-country season. She wore them for practice everyday and for all meets, including the state finals on a cold, wet, muddy November day in place of her flats - maybe a little less traction, but way more comfort for her. She still wears them for training on sloppy winter days getting ready for track season - to save the new ones. Not all shoes fit all people well. Find what you like and stick with it. Saucony shoes fit my daughter very well and the ProGrid Guide 4 have been great for her. As "all" teenagers, she likes NIKE, but the Saucony are more comfortable on her feet and are her go to shoe when it counts, Of course, the classy style and her favorite orange color are just icing on the cake.
