Comments about Womens Saucony Triumph 11 Running Shoe:

I was sold on the Triumph series when I began training for my first marathon in June 2013. Since then, I've bought 4 pairs for training and for the race itself. The 10's worked out well during the marathon, having survived the heat and rainstorm that bombarded the race! The 11's don't feel much different to me than the 10's, which is totally a-ok, since I loved the 10's. They are very comfortable and I've had much less pain in my knees and feet since switching to them from Mizunos. They're also very durable -- though I buy a new pair every 4-5 months, I still switch out between the old ones for shorter runs and workouts at the gym.

I've been wearing Sauconys for decades because I have wide feet and a high arch, and they always had such nice big toe boxes. I know about ordering a half size up, which I always do. I don't know what changed, but the last two pairs I've ordered have been way too narrow - almost like old Nikes. They also feel too short, but that may be because my feet are squished sideways. I ordered yet another pair this just now because I'm going to try yet again to get a pair that fit, but it's not looking too good. I'm tired of returning shoes, even with RRS's service.

The '11's' are excellent. They feel like the '9's' but better. No heel slip!!! I always put in extra arch support on top of the shoe's insert and they still feel great...I hope they do not change the design.

Finally, I found a pair of Sauconys that work for me again. I've been running in Sauconys for more than 20 years and I struggled to find a pair of running shoes that didn't cause injury since Saucony changed the heel to toe drop height a couple of years ago. I have loved Saucony shoes because I have ankles that tend to turn easily and the heel support is amazing! I ended up trying different versions of Sauconys and even changed to a pair of Asics after trying on several other brands that should have worked too. All eventually caused pain in my knees when I would run more than about 2-3 miles a day and I was experiencing hamstring problems.

I finally read something that made me believe that these might be different and I decided to give them a chance (thank goodness for the VIP return policy). I have a slight movement in the back by the heel but overall these shoes are great! I'm back to running 5+ miles daily without problems.

I'd still lobby to make some shoes with the 12mm drop height (please listen Saucony), but these have allowed me to run without the injuries that were plaguing me for the last few years. If you are struggling with the heel to toe drop change, give them a try. Hopefully, they'll help for you!

I bought the earlier version of this shoe to trade off with my Brooks Ghost and Brooks PureFlow 1. I really liked the shoe in terms of cushioning and durability, but found that it slipped on my heel all the time. The only fix was to knot the laces all the way up using a specialty knot I found online for just this problem. The issue was that the shoelaces weren't long enough, so I had to buy another pair of longer shoelaces to meet my knotting needs. My feet would sometimes go numb due to this, but I loved the shoe so much that I tolerated it. I put almost 500 miles on the shoes and still loved them (except for the knotting issue). Then, the 11's new/current version came out. I don't know exactly what they changed, but the heel slippage issue is gone!! I didn't need to change shoelaces or knot them in any special way for them to fit comfortably. My feet no longer get numb. Plus, I still get all of the comfort that I received from the last version. Yay! Even though my older pair were not worn out, I pitched them as soon as I tried the new version. I just LOVE the new version so much more than the older ones, though there isn't a huge difference in feel--only fit in the heel, at least for me.

I wear these shoes as daily trainers, although I rotate them with the new Brooks PureFlow (3). I run about 40 - 50 miles a week and I am 43 years old. I have a somewhat high arch and I weigh about 120 lbs. I am a mid-foot striker who can't wear a shoe that has a huge heel to toe drop without it bothering my achilles tendon. These are medium in that regard (I think the drop is somewhere between 8 - 11 mm), but I am still able to wear them comfortably despite the larger heel/toe drop. I can wear these on my long runs (~ 10 - 12 miles) without feeling a lot of wear and tear on my legs.

Saucony, please do not change this shoe! I love the updates and need this shoe for my longer distance runs.

I really like these running shoes. I bought a pair after a Saucony rep brought them to a local run for testing. I've always run in GEL- Nimbus or Kinsei. I ran 24 miles in them the first three uses and I had no issues. I did choose to exchange for a half size up because my normal size felt just a little restrictive.

This is my first time wearing Sauconys. I've been a Newton girl for the last 3 years but then started developing plantar fasciitis and achilles tendonitis so was searching for something with more support and stability. I don't necessarily think these offer superior support and stability (I would say average) but they do provide good cushioning, breathability, feel for the most part fairly lightweight and overall they get the job done. I run anything from 5ks to marathons and would choose this shoe for any of my training and events.
