Guide 15

Saucony Guide 14 and 15. I pronate pretty badly and I love how solid the shoes are and also comfortable to run at distance.

The soles on my Saucony guides (models 15, 16 and now 18) have not lasted as long as the older versions.

Hi guys - I'm a heavy over-pronator who does about 25km/week of fairly easy running - about 4:30-5:00km/min. would love your recommendations for a new pair of daily trainers based on what I've run in and enjoyed/not before: * Brooks Glycerin GTS 20 - My least favourite, toe and heel both collapsed after 400km, no fun to run in (heavy, sluggish) and couldn't wait to get to a respectable mileage before binning. * Saucony Guide 15 - didn't get on with these, felt very high and uncushioned and actually not that stable. got them discounted so gave up after 50km. * Saucony Tempus 1 - Loved them at first but found my feet and ankles hurting after running about 3-400km in these shoes - maybe a red herring. * Brooks Adrenaline GTS 21 - Enjoyed at the time as they were my first proper running shoe but think I'd want something more 'fun' to run in nowadays. * ASICS Gel Kayano 28-31 - Keep buying these and they're good, not any fun to run in though and do feel heavy. Ideally I'd love something that is more cushioned than the Guide/Adrenaline, but not as heavy as the Gel Kayano/Glycerin. Is there a sweet spot here and is that sweet spot the Saucony Tempus 2?!

People can recommend shoes, but it might just be more waste of money. Shoes are not cheap. Best bet is go to a running shoe store and spend 20 minutes trying on shoes they recommend. I would do that and buy the pair there and then go online and find the previous year's model and buy that at a bigger discount. Stability with cushion would be something like Brooks Adrenaline or Glycerin or New Balance 860 or ASICS Gel-Kayano or Saucony Guide. If you are having foot pain custom insoles from a foot doctor would be the best bet. I had to do that after fracturing my foot twice.

Not being silly! The brooks adrenaline 24 also gave me such bad blisters on my arches. I wear the saucony endorphin speed 4s on my tempo and track days which is a “neutral” shoe and have zero issues. And I severely overpronate, my ankles roll in quite a bit. I will say on easy days I do use a stability shoe, the saucony guides. They are the most comfortable shoe I’ve put on and I don’t think the stability is super aggressive. I searched high and low for another pair of 17s to have in hand. Love them!

Try saucony guide. I find there’s not much arch poking up and it’s a wide and foamy shoe at the base so it correct pronation that way. More of a neutral stable shoe Most comfortable stability shoe I’ve found and I have really bad over pronation. Was wearing the brooks adrenaline 24 previously and got horrid blisters on my arch. No blisters with saucony

Hi everyone Looking for a bit of advice. I used to overpronate and ran my first marathon in Nike Zoom Structures. A few years later I got another gait analysis done and was told I didn’t overpronate anymore but I went with the Saucony Guide to have a bit of support still. I had another gait analysis recently and they told me there was no sign of overpronation so I bit the bullet and got a neutral shoe (new balance 1080s). However, one of my ankles does not seem to like running long distance in these. It’s fine for a short run or a speed run but the ankle seems much happier in the Guides. I now need to buy another pair of shoes as my guides have seen better days but I’m so torn on what to do. Are Guides okay for long running? I’m currently training for a marathon so this would be my marathon shoe and I can’t afford to have lots of different shoes. The guy who did my gait analysis said I shouldn’t run in support shoes as I don’t need them, but I’m finding the Guides so much better. I’m also wondering if the 1080s are perhaps a bit soft. I have Nike Pegasus 5 for when I’m running on trails and haven’t had an issue, although my runs have been shorter. Sorry I know this is very specific but I guess my question is, is it okay to stick with Guides for long distance even though I’m told I don’t need stability? Is there another shoe that is perhaps somewhere between the Guides and 1080s? I do love running in the 1080s but my ankle disagrees!! Thank you

Honestly you should go to a store. If you can't, new balance 860 or Saucony guides will be a solid all around comfortable shoe for many running styles and terrain and wider feet.
