Saucony Men's Ride 6 Running Shoe
CUSTOMER REVIEW
I'm 6 feet tall and 175 pounds. I have a medium-high arch. I heel strike and I underpronate very, very slightly. I'm slow, but I don't mind doing a few extra miles. I'm basically a somewhat heavy neutral runner. I don't need motion control. I like cushion, but not a lot of extra weight. I like regular running shoes rather than minimal shoes. Overall, a neutral cushion shoe works best for me. I've worn Adidas Supernova Glides since running some 15k races back in 2005 and 2006. But they were difficult to find at a decent price lately, so I went looking for an equivalent shoe from another brand. I tried Asics Cumulus, but the toe box wasn't the right shape for my feet. These felt good, as did the Brooks Ghost. These were available from Amazon at a lower price with free shipping, so I got them. After about six weeks of use, I can say that they are very comfortable and work well for me. The cushioning is good but they're not too heavy.
A few negatives. The heel could be little more snug for my foot. The forefoot is a little stiff and could be more flexible. The outer tread seems to be wearing a little faster than I would like. The rubber compound may be a little soft, so they may not last quite as long as I would like. But I got them at a ridiculously low price, so these are only minor complaints.
