I bought these about a month ago. I have bought too many Saucony in the past and they felt good right from the start. No having to break them in. This pair is same size but just a little to snug. I should have sent back but hate having to pay the shipping charges back. They just don't fit right.

Disappointed on all fronts

I have been a loyal Saucony Jazz Original customer for years. I've owned at least 4 pairs of this style and love it for various reasons. But this time the shoe is just different. I already know my size, I just wanted a new pair because my old ones were wearing out. But to my surprise, when it arrived the shoe was a lot smaller and tighter than my old ones. The toe is more narrow too. I probably would have to go a whole size larger than normal! I don't know what's going on with this company, but they don't even have size availability. I checked for months before buying these, waiting for them to become available in my size. Using the 'notify me' feature, I was finally able to get it, but sadly, I had to return them. And on top of that, be aware that they charge taxes ... MoreI have been a loyal Saucony Jazz Original customer for years. I've owned at least 4 pairs of this style and love it for various reasons.

It's not obvious until you return something. I probably won't be buying from here again. It's sad because you can't find these shoes in physical stores, at least not easily. They are certainly not available around me.

I love the Jazz Originals.

These are my favorite everyday sneakers because they are so comfortable and supportive. Sadly, they aren’t as available as they used to be. They feel a bit narrower and shorter in length than ones I’ve purchased in the past. I wish you stick to the previous sizing.Please keep the Jazz originals alive in more colors. The ones with the nylon fabric are my go-to shoes.

Order up. Runs small

Comfortable with some lift. I am usually a 36 in sandals and 37 in shoes. These run small. Reordered a size 38 and they fit perfectly. Retro look and unique. Wanted something different and these look great with dresses.

Quality has changed

I've been wearing these sneakers for at least 20 years. They have been my go-to sneakers for fit and comfort. I've been watching the quality degrade and the price continue to go up. The last few pairs I've purchased are unwearable. So uncomfortable and the toe part has gotten so much narrower and it crushes my toes. I even sized up 1/2 size and I cannot wear those either. I used to feel like I was walking on a cloud, now the shoe is hard and causes my feet to ache. So sad to see that my favorite sneakers can no longer provide the comfort and quality I relied on for so many years. I wish Saucony would read these reviews and see that I am not alone. Sadly, I must look elsewhere now.

Quality is not the same

I just ordered my (probably) 5th pair of womens' Saucony jazz sneakers. The quality has definitely changed and not for the better. They are still cute but something about the quality is not the same - the nylon or all materials are possibly cheaper/cheaply made? I don't know, they just seem to be a cheap, dollar store version of what they were before and I felt sad to have spent $100 on this most recent pair :( ...oh life

So cool looking!

Always happy with my Saucony purchases! These Jazz Originals are super cool with the gold color! They are not for working out for me but walking around and looking fashionable! I am a size 8 in regular shoes but always a 9 in Saucony. I'm very happy with my new pair of Sauconys and its the only sneaker I purchase. I have many different styles but this one is great for summer!

These are NOT Original Jazz

I have been wearing Saucony Jazz for 3 decades. These are not them. I have tried my original size and two larger sizes, to no avail. Why oh why would Saucony change something that was beloved to so many customers? It had a wide footbed, regular heal, cushy, walking on clouds from the get-go. These are shorter, narrow in the footbed (tapered, actually), and like walking in wooden shoes. What a disappointment. Alas, after 30 years, I need to find a new, reliable shoe manufacturer. So sad.

Totally happy

I originally had this model in the ‘80’s while pregnant. I recommend them for any young woman who is pregnant as they kept my knees and ankles from feeling tired. I am now using them as a jog and dog and they work very much the same and are especially good for quick moves with my dog! I’m totally happy again!

Usually great.

I love Sauconys and have been wearing them for many many years. They are always very comfortable and even stylish I think. But, for some reason this particular shoe is hurting my feet and I cannot wear them. The size and model is the same as always, so it must be a defect in this style.
