Well made shoes, but these have a lot more cushion and padding than regular Saucony's. I measured them and regular Saucony's are about 3/4" thick at the heel.... and these are twice that -  1 1/2" thick.

That's fine if you want to be taller.. if you are 6'7" like me you don't really need to be any taller. I will probably just wear them when I go running.
