Type of review

Revainrating 1 out of 5

wide not wide

Very disappointed. Width in any other brand fits well. They are too narrow for my foot width. Tried to hack them, still didn't work. For those who need a wide one, take a double E or look for another brand's option. I expected them to win and tried to break them. It did not work.

Pros
  • We had a workshop for several years. This was one of my husband's favorite trail running shoes.
Cons
  • Poor bow support

Kinvara always feels good to me

Another iteration and another good running show. I think I would have preferred more than 10 and I read in reviews that 11 seemed heavier (it's a bit) but as I'm not the type to be labeled as a competitive runner it certainly helps.

Pros
  • Excellent shoes, no breaks, suitable for long-distance training. Run your marathon in them, they are amazing.
Cons
  • Grip not good enough for slippery surfaces

The most comfortable shoes I've ever worn

Surprisingly comfortable. Very easy. Great shoes. Works a little, but not as little as the previous Sauconys I've tried. But still - be careful. They are small and slim. I ordered the width and a half size larger and they fit well for my taste.

Pros
  • The Kinvara 11 has a low profile design that gives a great sense of control and stability.
Cons
  • Does not provide sufficient stability for moderate pronation

Not durable at all.

The front end even removes 3 miles of wear. It may just be a defective pair, but it's crazy for this to happen. my son loves it.Fir him well..

Pros
  • my son loves it. good for him
Cons
  • style outdated

Running comfort

The only reason I gave it a 3 is because the soles creak. Very annoying but I've been running in Kinvaras for 4 or 5 years now. I couldn't find any more comfortable shoes.

Pros
  • Bought for my son who walks 6 hours at Walmart. These shoes are comfortable and support his feet.
Cons
  • There was a version before and they were perfect. These suck.

Usually great shoes, these just didn't last!

I bought these shoes on January 19th and three months later the bottom of the shoe started peeling. I'm a casual runner at best and only use this shoe during organized physical training with my military unit. I liked the previous Saucony shoes I bought (4 pairs) but not so much with these.

Pros
  • Saucony Men's Kinvara 11 is a stylish and comfortable pair of men's running shoes.
Cons
  • poorly made

Not broad. -- my new rating

The shoes may be ok for some but they are not wide. The product page says 'Wide', I ordered 'Wide' and got a 'W' size, but they are definitely not wide. I have other Saucony Wides and you can definitely tell the difference. Additionally, Saucony's website does not list an option for broad. I've tried putting them on twice for a quick walk around the block and just couldn't walk in them. If you want a wide size, look elsewhere.

Pros
  • The Kinvara 11 offers excellent value for money due to its quality and performance.
Cons
  • Not enough room to spread fingers

Noisy sneakers are the best in my rating

The color, fit and style of the shoes were good but they creaked horribly. The material on the underside of the insert and the insole creaked with every step. A shoe insert with a fabric bottom will likely solve this problem.

Pros
  • Everything as promised, thank you.
Cons
  • Too expensive for the average consumer

Kinvara AMAZING! Running makes you happy again!

I definitely switched to Saucony Kinvara. I used to be at Brooks but they change style and fit so often and they are slowly dropping a lot of good shoes. I was looking for something similar to a discontinued Brooks Cadence and these Kinvaras did it! I love her! Kinvara is definitely my running shoe now! I'm sold!

Pros
  • The cushioning of the shoe minimizes impact on the foot and reduces the risk of injury.
Cons
  • Outsole wears out quickly

Great shoe, fits me

I run 35 miles every week and this shoe meets my expectations and can also be used for cross training and other workouts. You look great. It fits like half a size bigger.

Pros
  • Nice shoes
Cons
  • Not suitable for people with wide feet

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Light and fast

Fits perfectly! I have a slightly wider toe and they fit just right. Nike and most other running shoes are too narrow which is great.

Pros
  • Great shoes but this model is narrower (like a 6) than the last 2 models. If you have a wide foot. Take it far.
Cons
  • Does not provide adequate ankle support

Excellent shoes in my review

I've been running Kinvaras for a number of years now and the 11's live up to the expectations set by previous models. I buy two pairs at a time to keep them a little fresher and will continue to do so. Love her!

Pros
  • The outsole of the Kinvara 11 is made of rubber, which ensures durability.
Cons
  • Do not machine wash

Excellent running shoes, the best in my rating

I love the all white color and the very light shoes that still provide good support. I ride 15-20 miles a week and they held up great for the first month.

Pros
  • One of the best Saucony shoes ever!
Cons
  • Not waterproof

No tearing, perfect fit, excellent shock absorption

I am an exceptionally fast hiker/jogger. They won't last long as they were never intended for sharp rocks and bushes. However, at 70 I prefer cushioning, light weight, minimal drop and a stable platform. The Kinvara 11 still seems to be the best since the Kinvara 2, having come up short on several models. I don't like the Kinvara 12 (especially the thin tongue) and I sent it back. Considering what I've been through, I'm perfectly happy with the 250 miles. I hope enough people have complained…

Pros
  • Shoes are easy to clean and maintain
Cons
  • Not suitable for people with bones

The page redirected me to the US to buy them without my knowledge. Sized according to the chart provided plus 1 full size up and they were still too small. So I paid USD, it was too small and I had to pay for shipping one way even though I'm a privileged member. Fa on this Walmart.

Pros
  • Good sneakers at a reasonable price
Cons
  • Too tight at the top

Nice looking shoes, never had a chance to use them

The seller must be careful they are small, waited more than a week to send back, waiting for a refund. In this case it will be more than a month before another pair is on my son's feet. Nice shoe and very light.

Pros
  • Very comfortable to wear.
Cons
  • Too hard midsole

Fits good. my judgement

On my second pair. Light, comfortable, good fit. No scrapes or blisters. The last pair ran about 400 miles before I needed a new pair. Recommended if you have an easy gait.

Pros
  • Super comfortable.
Cons
  • I use these shoes for training.

Sturdy and fun shoes in my review.

Bought these for my wife. She loved the look and we know she loves the brand and size so the choice was easy. She runs two to three miles in them every morning and so far they are great. I love Sakoni!

Pros
  • The shoe is ideal for runners looking for a comfortable and supportive shoe.
Cons
  • Not suitable for heavy runners

Not like before

I've been using Kinvara for many years, but this model was modified in a way that made me uncomfortable. My knee hurt every time I walked with them. I've tested it back and forth and always had knee pain with the new Kinvara. Something is different and it doesn't work with my step.

Pros
  • Perfect fit, comfortable and great for a more minimalist pillow and something substantial.
Cons
  • Too easy for some runners

Great shoes: my review

I don't normally buy shoes from Amazon but last year I took a chance and bought a Saucony Kinvara 10 and they turned out to be perfect. 11 were also perfect.

Pros
  • The shoes are light and perfect for running or any other sport.
Cons
  • Upper material is not durable
