User Reviews about Saucony Men's ProGrid Ride 2 Running Shoe

I had been running in New Balance MR850 for over two years. Thing is, I was going through a pair in 3 months or less! And at $115 or more a pair, seems like NB wasn't getting it right. Also, I really needed a neutral shoe that would accommodate some plantar fascia problem in one foot--the MR850s seem to contribute to the plantar fascia pain. Enter the Saucony Progride Ride 2--this is a great shoe! Just enough on-the-firm-side cushioning, sufficiently stable without a motion-control shoe, and plenty of room in the toe box and along side the toe box, no more little to crunch. I read where the Ride 3 is not the same feel as the Ride 2. Could not me more please with this shoe--just sorry to hear that Saucony has changed the design and feel of a great running shoe. These remind me of the feel of the Saucony Jazz of a decade ago, but with an even improved feel. Great job, Saucony! And Amazon's price, with free two-day shipping, is exceptional. Way to go Amazon! -- Excellent Walking/Jogging Shoe

Awesome running shoe. I absolutely love the Saucony ProGrid Ride 2. It is supportive, yet pretty light weight and I would highly recommend them. -- Awesome Running Shoe!

I need a stability shoe. I have a heel spur and planters fasciitis. I usually have 2-3 shoes I rotate in. Right now, I have been using a New Balance stability shoe and an Asics stability. Also, I have recently used a UK pro gear, Mizuno, and another pair of Asics. These and the Mizuno are my favorite. However, the Mizuno is out of the rotation now and going to shoe heaven. Plus, these cost me about $30-40 less than the Mizuno. I like these because they have a wide shoe box and a fairly narrow heal. Perfect for me. I run anywhere from 12-20+ miles a week. I believe I did a 10 miler on these a few weeks ago and they held up well.

In addition, I always put in inserts that you can buy from the doctor or store. They usually cost $30. I take the manufactures inserts out of all my shoes and run with over the inserts. For these shoes I picked a little harder insert and it works well for me. I tend to pronate a little, but overall have a pretty good gait. I also have a fairly high arch. These shoes don't have a high arch and that's great for me. My foot just feels pretty good in these shoes. Well about as good as they can with my injuries. -- great shoes good support

I've had these shoes for about 3 months now and run with them almost everyday for a few miles or so. First off, they are great shoes. They are well built, durable, and are a good pair of trainers, but thats really all they are. These shoes are meant for easy to medium paced runs on any surface. When it comes to doing a time trial though, or even trying to run hard or sprint, they just fall short. The shoes feel heavy and seem to carry unnecessary weight, and also feel a bit... cloppy... as in they don't feel springy off the ground. Wouldn't buy these shoes again, just for the sake of variety.
Verdict: buy these shoes if you are only going to use them for runs that aren't above a medium pace. -- Good shoes for easy runs.

Just finished running 13 miles in my brand new pair and I feel great! I don't want a shoe that compensates for poor running technique and the Progrid Ride 2 doesn't try to. There's no arch support, which allows your own arches to provide the spring you need for efficient running. The shoe is flat -without a built up heel- so it doesn't get in the way of the mid-foot landing you need to absorb shock and reduce the risk of injury. My other favorite running shoe in the Nike Free, which is about as close as you can get to barefoot running. While the Free works for my middle distance runs, it doesn't have enough cushioning for long distance runs on concrete. I can't say that the Progrid will work for everyone but it works for me. -- Works for Me!
