I bought my first pair of Saucony men's shoes from a foot shop, I had plantar fasciitis. I've been to the podiatrist several times. the shoe store recommended Saucony. later, after 2 weeks of wearing, i had no more foot problems. I've bought 8 pairs of their shoes in the last 2 years and that's all I wear now. I bought 3 pairs of the exact same shoes and 2 of 2 other models, they help me a lot and feel so good. Thanks
