Saucony Women's Hurricane 23 Running Shoe

As someone who does manual labor on their feet for 10-12 hours per day, my best piece of equipment is my shoes. I've bought plenty of pairs of expensive, top of the line shoes in order to ensure Im not hobbling at the end of the day. So, let me give my honest rundown:1) these are non-slip which is terrific for my line of work. Great traction overall.2) they have the breathable mesh tops which help cool your feet off, and keep you overall a bit cooler, but...don't get caught in the rain...ever .....while wearing these3) the toe box of the shoe is roomy while the mid-foot and ankle are more snug which is great if you have knee problems. It keeps your foot from sliding in the shoe and provides stability.4) I'm an overpronator which easily causes hip, knee, and back trouble. These keep my feet from rolling when I step.5) They're lightweight so I don't fatigue as easily as I can with workbooks and they make it easy to be light on my feet. They have great cushioning and shock absorption too.So basically, I can now work my long days moving swiftly on my feet without pain or limping at the end. Great shoe!

I have wide feet, a bunion, and several bones spurs. These shoes make it possible for me to walk comfortably. I'm on my second pair and wondering if I should buy another in case they become unavailable. The only drawback is that my toes tend to poke through the mesh top.

These shoes healed all of my ankle and knee pain immediately and allow me to walk with normal strides which line up perfectly. I believe they have prevented me from falling. The only issue may be that they are not skid proof when water is present.

I did my first run in these today. This is my first pair of stability shoes. Here are my impressions.Pros:• Nice firm sole, stability I can really feel. Immediate relief from most of the foot/calf issues I had been having. Noticeably less fatigue in my lower body during and after the run.• Good energy return. I read other reviews saying you run faster than you feel like you are running in these and that was definitely my experience too.• Very comfortable, other than the laces being too tight over my midfoot. Will try a different lacing pattern and see if that solves it.Cons:• I experienced some heel slipping even with runners loop lacing, but the overall fit is secure enough that it was not a huge problem.• As a nonbinary person in a female body I hate that all the color ways are so overtly feminine. I got the purple because it looked taupe in the photos but it is like a my little pony purple in person. My feet are somewhat small but maybe next time I can get away with buying the smallest men's size.• the fabric covering the top of the toe box is very thin, like I could see my socks through it. This may not be an issue if it's also very strong but I could see a hole developing there eventually.Overall, I'm pleased with these. They do seem to address the discomfort I was experiencing in other shoes and the issues with fit/lacing can probably be dealt with pretty easily.

After a year-long search for a comfortable walking shoe, this is the best. Sadly, the Saucony company says it is being discontinued. The company representative suggested the Omni and and Tempos for my wide feet that suffer from where a Taylor's Bunion was remove and from arthritis in the toe joints. Neither of these shoes worked for me. I was grateful for Amazon's generous return policy.c

Very comfortable shoes,I am on my feet at work,and wearing these shoes, my feet don't hurt at the end of my shift.

I started jogging again after a few years but my knees started hurting after a month. I tried Brooks Adrenaline 21 running shoes based on a sales person's recommendation but found them too squishy and they did not provide enough support. I was faced with the thought that I could not go back to jogging because i was too old (I'm 64 soon to be 65). But I remembered that Saucony running shoes were always very good to me and I went back to this brand and bought the Hurricane 23. Today's 3.5 mile jog went very well my knees didn't hurt at all. My feet felt very supported.

Love my shoes…pink is not my favorite color but the shoes look good, this is my second pair of hurricanes and I’m not dissatisfied, another plus is they are helping with my plantar fasciitis lots of support!
