Review on Saucony Zealot Black Silver Men's Running Shoes: Lightweight and Athletic by Derek Wagner

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent fit, light weight, lots of cushioning

I've been running in Saucony for a few years now and change 2-4 pairs a year. I've tried several pairs from almost every major shoe brand and have found Saucony to be my favorite (with Brooks and a second, but Saucony is starting to fall behind). Other than that, the Zealot is the best shoe I've worn in a long time, maybe ever. The fit is great, the Saucony sits well on my foot and the Zealot won't let me down. It's very light but with a great cushion. Ideal for long days. I change shoes during the week and use them on longer days, running 10-15 miles in them once a week and 6-8 miles in them a few other days. So far I have no negative comments. Seems to be holding up very well. The sole seems to last for miles but hasn't seen much wear yet. I would be more interested in how the midsole holds up. The shoes are very light but with good cushioning. I'm worried that this will break the pillow faster than usual. The time will show. Overall I am very happy with these sneakers.
