Bought Saucony looking for a shoe for heavy runners (170lbs and up) with air running effect like I did in the 80's with the Saucony Bought 2000 I found the Echelon 6. It really makes walking with calluses easier, but this shoe is nothing like the one I bought on the way back. The reduced price of $75 is worth it, but I'll keep looking and maybe find these Saucony shoes that have the comfort I remember. I wish you success.
