Saucony Women's Cohesion 14 Sneaker

Saucony is my #1 choice bc they last forever, provide great comfort, and have stayed consistent over the years. HOWEVER, all three of us who wear Saucony have to order 1-2 sizes larger than our normal size when buying Saucony

I have worn Saucony running shoes for 40 years, and have never gone wrong with a pair. My first pair was orange and garish, but on sale at an outlet. I was a poor college student training for a 1/2 marathon, and bought what I could afford. From then on it was love at first step. Like all the other Saucony shoes in my past, the Saucony Women's Cohesion 14 Road Running Shoe (what a mouthful) is a delight. I normally wear a women's size 9, but have a wide foot, so ordered a 9.5 US in this shoe. Good fit, good arch support, no rub at the back of the heel, nice stability against ankle roll on irregular terrain, nice sole cushion for heel strike and follow through, good flexibility at the bend of the metatarsal-toe joints. Good breathability...no sweaty feet after prolonged use (I prefer wearing socks). I'm not the fastest runner/walker on the block anymore, but these shoes still allow me to get out there and try. Plus, the black/grey/blue color scheme is attractive, even when wearing with casual slacks or jeans. Update, several years later: My previous pair of Saucony Cohesion 14 shoes are ready to retire. After regular use for several years, the front sole is beginning to peel back and my great toes are pushing forward in the toe box while running, wearing this area thin. I lace the shoes loose to help widen the toe box, and agree with other reviewers that the Saucony toe box on this shoe is more narrow than in past decades (I've worn Saucony brand for running since early 1980's). To adjust for the narrower design and different manufacturer, I ordered up from a size 9.5 to a size 10. I was skeptical that a size 10 would work because I normally wear a 9.5 running shoe. Right out of the box the new size 10's feel ok. My great toes are a full index-finger width back from the front end of the toe (see attached photo). This is comfortable. However the heel area is a bit loose compared to the size 9.5. I wear socks with these shoes, but as yet don't know if the heel will slip when running uneven terrain. The photos show the old size 9.5 (grey/blue) shoes compared to the new size 10 (blue/light blue) shoes. The length difference is barely perceptible, and the new shoes show the slimmer toe box. Just be aware that you may want to size up or go to a wide size for comfort. Still a good shoe for the price.

These shoes fit me very comfortable and make my walking more stable. They're so cute, but I do wish they had a little thicker insole.

I bought this brand at a specialty sporting goods store 4 years ago, on the advice of an orthopedic doctor. I wear leg braces due to weakness caused by multiple sclerosis, and it has been difficult to find shoes that are supportive and also roomy enough to accommodate the braces. The shoes lasted 4 years despite nearly-daily wear. When it was finally time to replace those shoes, I wanted to get the same brand. Buying through Amazon, I was able to get two pairs for the same price I paid for one pair four years ago. I felt a little guilty for not supporting the sporting goods store, but that kind of savings is hard to pass up. I also wonder if these are "seconds" or "irregulars" that will not hold up as well. I'll let you know in four years.

Veteran Saucony User. Previous purchases directly from Saucony or specialty running store. These feel different. Switching from Guide150 to Cohesion. Model change shouldn't be an issue since even if they perform similar to a Big Box entry level shoe.... these can stay for more casual activities (walking, kid wrangling, kid sports). That said... I haven't fully assessed them the pair I received was actively used and is damaged. ********************************************** Damage Details & Lack of Service ************************************************ Purchase: Prime Day special NEW shoe. Received: Used & Damaged. Company did not perform sufficient due diligence inspecting what is assumed a returned product. Tread has evidence of uneven wear in the heel. Tread is scuffed and pebbles lodged between treads. Shoe insole has impression marks from toes. (Going to try to be generous by theorizing a customer took them out for couple miles/test runs and returned them since the shoe didn't fit their running needs). - Heel Cushion Collapses: It won't pull back up. My Guide150 have couple years and over 500 miles, but don't have this issue. Clearly damaged. -- Outer foot design: Shoe does slant out for supination/outerfoot. Prior owner has created further imbalances. -- Marked Insoles: Insoles have toe mark impressions on them from active wear. Insole does seem thin compared to prior Saucony pairs (replaced with orthodics). -- Treads: Treads are scratched, scuffed, and arrived with stones in them. Easily available if they checked the box when customer returned the item. ******************************************* Product Replacement Issues ******************************************* Sales Issue: Product was listed as NEW. Understand PRIME Days are great for moving slow moving product. But it shouldn't be used to pass off damaged/obsolete items as NEW. Company made a mistake when checking the return but customer shouldn't be penalized for their error. Replacement Options: Product back ordered with soonest delivery in 1 month. Refund & repurchase item at HIGHER price since not standing behind Prime Day orders being to be (1) accurate product and/or (2) timely.

So 3 days ago I ordered my size 7 wide like an old pair. Didn't fit, too short and narrow. So yesterday I ordered 71/2 hoping they would be wider. Not even close still missing over 1/2 inch. I would not recommend that shoe if you need wide. It's not wide at all.

After trying lots of other sneakers, these are the ones I ultimately kept! Great fit! Great style!

This is my 2nd pair of these shoes, I have some in black, and I highly recommend them. They have great arch support and I can wear them all day for teaching without my feet hurting.
