Let me start by saying I am not one to write reviews and if I do is to complain. These are incredible shoes! I am loving my guides 17. I've only had them for 2 weeks and bought them to add to my rotation but I find myself grabbing them every single time I go out for my runs, long or short. Very roomy toe box compared to other Saucony models and even other brands. I have very wide feet with an incredibly high instep and most wide models in other brands are not wide enough and still hurt my feet from every angle. Not these. I love how they feel on the road, not so much on a smooth trail surface but they're not trail so it's ok. However once the run transitions to road you feel the magic of these shoes, they can pick up the pace really quick! The stability is ... MoreLet me start by saying I am not one to write reviews and if I do is to complain. These are incredible shoes! I am loving my guides 17.

However once the run transitions to road you feel the magic of these shoes, they can pick up the pace really quick! The stability is exquisite, super stable without being intrusive or aggressive, it's almost as if you weren't using a stability shoe at all, specially because they're so light. I am very satisfied so far with this new iteration and we shall see how the sole fares in a few months.Please keep making roomy shoes, and consider adding more fun colors for us wide footed people. It's sad to only have darker boring colors, I want to be bright and seen when running.

Special, no. But, at the same time, YES!While the Guide 17 does not offer any superfoam, plates, or pizazz, it’s still might be my favorite shoe of the year.Saucony’s daily trainer here has performed extraordinarily well for me over the past few months. (I did have one pair of mine that were defective, but loved the shoe so much that I gave it a second try!)What sets this shoe apart from the rest, is how familiar it feels on foot. It’s comfortable, but not overly soft. It’s stable, but not hindering. It’s protective, but still offers ground feel to the user. And did I mention affordable?! Best shoe at its price point, and in my eyes the best shoe for all my heavy runners out there.

I have been using the Saucony Guide design for a decade and the Guide 17 is by far the worst new design. The tounge of the shoe is attached on the inside of the shoe so it has no movement whatsoever. I don't know why companies have started to design shoes this way but it is so annoying. Some of us actually have arches and find it painful to run when the shoe tounge does not move and instead cuts into our ankle. The ankle needs to have open movement when running. It feels like Saucony is now only catering to aesthetics and not practicality. Go back to having the shoe tounge not attached to the inner side walls of the shoe.

I bought these shoes a month ago looking for a daily trainer. I am historically not a stability shoe fan — but this is not a typical stability shoe. This corrects your foot, knee, and hip positioning ever so subtly by working with your gait vs. forcing your foot into an unnatural direction. The cushioning absorbs all sorts of shock but is not dead underfoot and rebounds well. It’s not necessarily a speed shoe, but it’s a perfect shoe for people who have historically worn neutral shoes but could benefit from a little more stability. I’ve been running for 20 years and these are among my favorite shoes I’ve ever had. (And trust me, I was skeptical!)
The changes with the Guide 17 over the Guide 16 and prior generations makes this a no go for me. The Guide 17 is a noticeably larger shoe than the Guide 16 and prior generations. The foot strike area is different than prior Guide shoes.The size. The Guide 17 is large and wide and felt awkward and uncomfortable to walk and run in. The widest part of the shoe, the forefoot area is nearly 5 inches wide, a half inch wider than the Guide 16. The midfoot area on the Guide 17 is nearly 3.5 inches wide while it is barely 2.75 inches on the Guide 16. The heel area is on the Guide 17 is over 4 inches wide while it’s a just under 3.5 inches on the Guide 16. When I opened the box I initially thought I had been sent a wide width or had mistakenly ordered something other than ... MoreThe changes with the Guide 17 over the Guide 16 and prior generations makes this a no go for me.

The Guide 16 and prior generations my foot strike zone would be the forefoot area but the Guide 17 is the heel to midfoot area.The offset of the shoe changed from the Guide 16 to 17 or the description on the website and the shoe are wrong. The website lists the Guide 17 as having an 8mm offset which is the same 8mm offset for the Guide 16 but the actual Guide 17 I received has a 6mm offset printed on the sole of the shoe.
Perhaps the least durable shoe I’ve ever owned, and that lengthy shoe list includes Nike’s Sock Racer from around 1986 with a PU unit sole. The Guide 17 has so much exposed EVA in the outsole that it wears like paper - especially under the ball of the foot. I’d recommend spending the extra $20 and buying the Tempus. The Guide 17 does feature a wider base of support for stability, but that is somewhat offset by a baggy forefoot fit. (Your heel sits a bit lower in the shoe, which does, at least, help to minimize heel slip). Your cushioning comes mainly from the footbed that seems to be etpu-based, so if you’re an orthotic wearer and have to remove the footbed (insole) to enhance the arch support, for example, the shoe’s cushioning feel becomes boring/entry-level.

The shoe does not feature the dual-density midsole design of the Tempus, so internally, it does not have that supportive feel in the arch. I had to glue arch cookies to the base of the footbed/insole to beef up the arch support. I appreciate the attempt at giving the Tempus a “kid brother”, but there’s no way I’d (again) invest $140 in a shoe where its outsole likely won’t last 150 miles. Photo included with this review is only after 10 miles of wear.
I don't love these I bought the pink triumph in wide a while ago and I really really love them.They fit well so I bought a second pair also in pink. I was looking for another pair of the triumph in pink, but they were mostly sold out and didn't have the right colors but I like. So I tried another pair in a different style, the guide 17 in blue and in eggplant. I don't love these shoes they're not as comfortable and my foot is much looser in these shoes than in the triumph even though it's the same size also in the same width. These are expensive shoes so needless to say I am disappointed. I wish I could find the triumph in wide size 9 in that beautiful hot pink that you came out with during the Barbie movie excitement, or at the very least in a blue.
I love these shoes so much. I had always struggled with finding shoes that don’t hurt my feet. I am always on my feet working as a nurse and had recently been suffering from plantar fasciitis from wearing incorrect shoes with little support. I then found out I have wide and flat feet! I was recommended these shoes for extra arch support and ever since wearing these my feet have so much support and my plantar fasciitis has resolved :) so happy with these I had to buy an extra pair for everyday wear. Highly recommend these, super comfy and supportive and cute colourways!
I have loved a variety of Sacouny shoes over the years Last year when I was training I suffered a foot injury that really put a hamper on my running. It took a long time to recover and I noticed coming back from the injury that I was much more sensitive to hard surfaces. These Guide 17 shoes have been amazing for getting back into exercising with much, much less pain on hard surfaces. The cushioning and rebound in these shoes is unparalleled. It's like they have found a way to reduce gravity and you just float along in these. The support is amazing and the asymmetrical profile keeps my recovering foot in better form thoughout my stride. I actually wear these as everyday shoes too because they feel so good.
I am very impressed with my new Saucony shoes! They are lightweight, yet provide excellent structure and support. The foot bed is wider than I have experienced before and it is a remarkable improvement to my run. The sole width provides superior stability as my foot hits the pavement. The upper materials are quick drying and allow breathability. My only caveat is the heel pull being a tad long, took some adjusting to and was a rather small issue. The design and quality materials make these my top choice. I would highly recommend to others in the market for a quality running shoe!
