Review on Saucony Womens Freedom Running Medium Women's Shoes ~ Athletic by Gina Robinson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Sizing not appropriate for women

I wanted to love this shoe but the toe box is very narrow. It doesn't look too tight, but it is, which to me is a deal breaker. Size is bad too. I'm always at 9 or 9.5 in sneakers. I have 9.5 and they are too short. I've never needed a 10 in my life and it's not like I really care what number is a good fit, but it's very annoying not being able to reliably predict what size to order. I appreciate the difference between the mids and lows and the soft cushioning and I love the color schemes. An extra pair of laces in a different color was a cool surprise, but also wasteful and unnecessary. I was hoping that I would like these shoes as they seemed to have everything I needed to replace my old New Balance Vazee Rush but they didn't fit. I'm glad Revain has a strict return policy. Not sure if I'll order 10 or just look at another model, especially since the toe box is narrow.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • High price
