All in all great shoe. It's light and fast. It's perfect for 5k and 10k trail or CC races. The only drawback is the toe box seems to fit a bit more narrow than other Sauconys. Either way, this is a fast CC flat.

Nice, flat shoe. Weight feels like nothing is there, after years of the regular runners. Soles are a hard material and should hold up well, though not sure about the rest of the shoe. Seems a bit flimsy on the whole, but maybe that's the price for weight.Definitely runs small, I usually wear 12, 11.5 in US made boots, 12.5 in some foreign ones, and 12.5 in these is a bit small. Size up a full size. They are Chinese, if you pay attention to that.

These are true to size, so they don't run small and narrow like some japanese brands (mizuno) and the american nike, but they aren't oversize either.Transitioning from my 10km+ runs in the very supportive progrid guides (primarily on sidewalks) to these (on grass) was just not a good idea. Relative to my NB 110 trail shoes (with have similar heel-forefoot drops) these shoes cause me to mid foot strike more - for some odd reason. I prefer to run pushing off the forefoot as that lends me to run faster times. I find my times are about 95% with these than with the NB (so over 10km that's around a minute and a half, significant in a competitive race)The shoe is responsive, and as you would expect from a budget flat - lightweight. But if you are transitioning from those with a sizeable heel drop these would probably be a good backup pair (useful for slower recovery runs, just clocking through miles) but not your first option for tempo and training runs.I should add that my foot is 2E but I +0.5 size if the double widths aren't available. Saucony please make more of your flats in widths.
