Review on Saucony Men's Switchback Walking Shoes in Classic Black: Maximum Comfort and Durability by Jason Burnside

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great heels for the desert. Great outsole, midsole and BOA

The shoes are in excellent dry condition. I absolutely love this shoe, it's unlike any shoe I've run or owned in. If you are just cruising around town or just relaxing. They're a bit stiff. But as soon as you hit the streets, they come to life. This stiffness results in nice rebound with amazing cushioning. The tip begins to "bend". As if they were activated by heat. And the shoes are quite comfortable. It reminds me of those car shows when they talk about race cars or super exotic cars. Not very suitable for errands or worldly life. But put them on rails and they make sense. That's how I feel about these shoes. If you head into the wilderness at a good pace, you will understand the world. Great sole, great Everun sole, Bola system RULES! The tip needs some work. It wouldn't hurt to soften up a bit and make a few drainage "holes". My daily run gets me into a stream for a while. And these shoes don't dry very well. They appear to be designed more for high desert runs. Despite great shoes. And I'm sure the tip will soften after a while. They're about 20 miles in and very impressed

Pros
  • Sarebbe un ottima scarpa ma la chiusura BOA nn è efficacissima...
Cons
  • May be too heavy or bulky for some people
