The Saucony Guide 17 has been fully transformed from top to bottom to provide seamless support and maximum cushioning for everyday runs, walks, and workouts. Focusing on comfort and protection, the medial post has been replaced by a new era stability platform from Saucony's Center Path Technology. The update features a wider base, higher sidewalls, and an asymmetric profile that cradles the foot inside of the shoe to guide your stride smoothly through the gait cycle. This smoothness is further accentuated by the shoes' slightly lower heel-to-toe offset which has been moved from an 8mm drop down to a 6mm drop. Built on a higher platform of PWRRUN foam throughout the midsole, this shoe not only provides more cushioning but also retains a fun and lively underfoot experience. The step-in feel is furthered enhanced by deep outsole flex grooves that add a touch of extra squishiness and bounce while the PWRRUN+ sock liner delivers a plush finish. The outsole blends strategically placed rubber with outsole grade EVA to deliver traction that doesn't interfere with the shoe's soft and lightweight feel. In the upper, an updated Engineered Mesh provides an improved fit that wraps your feet securely with breathable comfort. Whether you're hitting the pavement for your daily runs or enjoying well-deserved recovery days, the Saucony Guide 17 is your dependable, supportive, and well-cushioned partner to help you reach your training goals.
