brooks

I am loyal to Brooks, and the cushioned heel is a nice added feature of this style.

Great shoe
I have enjoyed these super comfortable shoes.

but even without that change, they are super comfortable and have a little bounce that I didn't find in prior versions.

Saucony Men's Ride 9 Running Shoe

I am having soreness "issues" with my toes at night, and the insoles do not seem right either.

It seems like the ends of my toes are all "jammed" (especially my big toe) and I sometimes get a pain right in the middle of my foot on one shoe only like the bottom is malformed and not filled out fully with material thus creating a pinch point at times Update - After reviewing this item I subsequently visited a doctor about discomfort in my toes at night.

The Everun sole just kept going for every step of my inaugural 10 mi run.

saucony

As a result I will NOT be buying Saucony shoes again.

I was a big Saucony fan until this blunder.

probably better going a size up with Saucony

width

wear

They are showing more wear on the forefoot tread than the previous versions (nearly worn out in places), possibly due to a rubber update?

The iBR+ tread is significantly worn after a couple dozen mi of paved trail funning (concrete and asphalt).

uncomfortable

My little toe was seriously bruised incl my first blister in 10ish years after a 10 mile run.

Although the cushioning is SUPERB (like running on clouds) the upper produced friction with the top of my left foot and it was really uncomfortable after the 10K mark so the plan to use this shoes during Chicago 2016 were postponed.

Versus the Brooks shoes I had been using the Ride 9 is a lot lighter weight plus the additional cushioning.

purchase

Now, I am buying shoes 1-1/2 to 2 sizes larger than I wore all my life and they seem fine.

I found a pair I loved and now I simply went on amazon and ordered .

I found a pair I loved and now I simply went on amazon and ordered the same dimensions and they fit perfectly.

I've even bought these again after the other ones wore out.

size

So I went with an 11.5 and it feels good, I'm glad I went up, just not a full size up.

The last provided a fantastic area for my foot to land and splay and the upper held tight to prevent any slippage (I run in size 9 for room
