Saucony  Ride TR2 Trail-Running Shoes - Men's

Saucony refuses to make an upper that lasts even three weeks. They know if they put a quality upper on these expanded thermal polyurethane cushion soles, then all of their customers will have no reason to buy new shoes every six months. Don't buy anything like these shoes from Saucony. The thin nylon separated the soles after a couple months of mild use, and even worse, all of the (decorative?) trim was falling off within three weeks. I was shoe gooing them repeatedly. Total junk.

Love the look & comfort of this shoe - you can still feel the trail and they have decent traction. Only issue is the grey outer color wore off on the soles and exposed the white substrate after only a few months of moderate trail running & hiking. Saucony should used solid color throoughout (like Hoka) so this doesn't happen.

Comfortable out of the box. However, they don’t feel like they have a rock plate. Just one run thus far involving a wharf. I could feel the wharf bolts poking through to my forefoot. My Hoka Bondi shoes feel like they have more protection when running across jagged surfaces in trail runs. The description says that they have a plate. Are you sure about that? Disappointing to see that the foam coating rubs off with rock scuffs. Otherwise a great looking shoe.

These fit as expected, are comfortable, and feel grippy when hiking on various trail surfaces. They had a strong chemical smell when taken out of the box and now a week later that is dissipating but still noticeable.

Very comfortable shoe with great grip/traction on trails while still being cushioned enough to run on paved roads in a pinch. I really liked these shoes, on my second pair since my dog decided to eat one.

A nice upgrade from my older Saucony Trail runners. Very comfortable and sure footed.
