I don’t typically leave reviews, but wanted to bring to attention that the pair I bought 4 months already has the flap on the front center is pulling apart. A matter of bad adhesive? I have only worn these shoes a couple dozen times so I’m disappointed they’re already falling apart.

I was so excited about this purchase but ended up returning. I was expecting them to be mustard yellow, like the picture. They were def more tan.. pic is sadly misleading.

I love these sneakers! I struggle with finding cute and comfortable sneakers (that are not running sneakers). These sneakers are both! I did put an additional insole in them as they are men's sizes so gives me a little more structure. But otherwise - I can add these to my rotation of sneakers.

Roomy Toebox, comfortable walker. I have only worn it twice so far, but for several hours each time. Very comfortable fit, no rubbing or pinching areas. True to size
Bought Shadow Mushroom 5000 for its aesthetic and curious about material. I have found that more so than suede or leather, the mushroom-based vegan fabric gets easily stained by dirt, and attempting to clean it with water and detergent ends up wearing down the material. There is already a hole forming in one spot of the mushroom fabric. In other respects also not very durable or well-constructed (stitching coming loose, sole separating from fabric). These are not going to last as long as I would expect. Love the concept, but not the result.
My only gripe with Saucony is their shipping method. This is the third shoe that I've purchased directly from their website and all three times they have shipped with the original box inside a plastic shipping bag. No kind of insulation or packing material inside this shipping bag so the box tends to get damaged in transit. All shoes should be shipped double-boxed to ensure the original box itself doesn't get damaged while in shipment. Especially for people like myself who store their shoes in the original box.
Very well made and good looking sneakers. I have replaced the insole for something more supportive and walked miles without pain. Beware: this model fits a half size smaller.
I got these shoes in olive and navy and they were super comfy right out of the box. I’ve worn them with and without socks, to walk around the city and to travel, and they have stayed very comfortable for hours on end. I will say my feet run a bit warm in general so when it’s been warmer outside (73+ degrees Fahrenheit) they were too warm for me, but I got them to wear during the east coast fall and winter and they are perfect for that!
I got the cute ones in the purple and pink. They are super cute, comfortable and unique. I love them. They pair well with a variety of outfits and are just super cute. Not bulky or heavy.
These fit great -- I wear a women's 7.5 and ordered a 6. Though the Jazz Original is a smidge more comfy than the 5000 for me, these are still very comfortable. Highly recommend.The one thing that could be improved is the packaging. I don't save boxes but I have plenty of collector friends that do. These -- and many other Saucony sneakers -- deserve a more unique and stylish box. And if that were to happen, better packaging when ship so the box would arrive undamaged.
