I bought this for the color,,, fun but not too loud,, although first I found it in the yellow color, This was a good solid model for Saucony,, a regular fit for an average foot. Very limited availability in size 9,, although I have seen it in red and lime green available someplace,, good choice if it is available in your size.  The ride is a little firmer than the Triumph 8 I had been wearing but not too stiff.
