I am very happy with my Tempus, even though these are mainly for daily training, I feel these are lighter than the NB I had and with great response. The color is amazing and there is enough room for my toes so I don’t get my feet numbed anymore. Simply love them!
We work hard to deliver the best! Thanks for sharing your feedback!
I love the Tempus so much, I have 4 pairs! It’s the only shoe I use for marathon training. They’re supportive and light weight and I am not getting the arch pain I used to in Brooks. Love all the colors so excited to try the Tempus2!
I am obsessed with these shoes! They are incredibly comfortable and light. Game changer
The heel construction on the outside of the shoe is made up of all individual pieces of foam so as you are working out pieces are falling off of the heel area. Not a well constructed shoe and would not recommend this shoe to anyone.
I have been wearing Sauconys as my running shoe of choice since 2017 and I continue to love them. These shoes are the perfect amount of support and cushion. The bounce is fantastic and my first time out, my legs couldn't keep up with my feet!
These sneakers are amazing. I have had a bad case of plantar fasciitis in the past and often have flair-ups. I contacted a Saucony representative and she suggested several sneakers. Went with the one above and they have been the perfect fit and I feel comfortable in them ALL day. Typically I have to change my foot wear at least twice a day to get through the day. Thank you Saucony for your help! Expensive but worth it! I bought the black ones.
After much ongoing research and reading reviews decided to purchase two pairs to add in my running rotation. It was the best decision!! These have become my favorite running shoes and highly recommend them! They provide the stability and comfort I need yet super lightweight with amazing response time. They’re a dream come true!! Great for outdoor running and short to long distance running. Hurry and purchase, you can thank me later. :)
Thanks for the awesome 5-stars!
Omg, these shoes are so comfortable! I don’t really run anymore due to after-market parts in my knee. But I walk miles outside in these, as well as stand and walk inside on concrete floors all day at my job at an outdoor gear store. I wasn’t sure about the color at first (it’s YELLOW) but I have grown to love it and you would not believe how many compliments I get on these shoes.
These run a little small for me. I normally do a 6.5 in a heel, a 7 in most shoes, and a 7.5 in hiking or running shoes. For these I had to size up to an 8, though I'm sort of new to distance running and am finding these more cushioned fits tend to push my foot more forward than I'm used to. I completed 7 miles in these with no complaints. I think I agree that the shoe is relatively narrow, but more in a "hugs your foot" way than a pinching way. It's not narrow by the toes, more in the mid foot area. I also feel the arch support is a little more assertive than I prefer. I don't have flat feet but I have a little lower arch than typical so I usually notice this more. Also the yellow shoes are YELLOW. I love them haha.
Bought this a few months back and am disappointed in the quality of the soles. The color is peeling off. I rotate them with 2 other pair of running shoes so they shouldn’t be falling apart like this. Am getting embarrassed to wear them.
