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

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fantastic my rating

I now have 4 pairs of these shoes and have just ordered the 5th. Why? Because these are the best minimalist shoes I've ever worn. I use them from regular trail running to everyday city wear and they work very well. The original pair now has a hole in the fabric fold due to wear and tear, but that's also because I wear them so often. They won't be your first choice for very rocky terrain as they don't have a flagstone and YOU will get bruises from the rocks. For any other terrain (besides dirt) they are great. I noticed a size difference between different colors. Red and black go very well together. The light yellow pair is much denser in the toe area. I don't know what it is, but it's a fact (for me). Disclaimer: If you have a severe overpronator, this is not your first shoe choice. Also, this won't be your first choice of shoe if you're running very long distances.

Pros
  • Stylish Design: The shoe's red and black color combination along with the Saucony logo enhances its aesthetic and makes it suitable for everyday use.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for people who require a wide toe.
