This is my third pair of Saucony running shoes.
My first reaction when I tried them on was that this model does not have generous toe room which I expected based on my past experience with Kinvara 2 and Hattori. This was a bit of disappointment since it was one of the things I really liked about the other two. It didn't remain in my consciousness in the first part of 6-mile run, but started creeping back into it toward the end. It probably will bother me especially around the pinkies if I do longer runs.
Good solid support & fair grip on rocky surfaces and pebbles. I climbed up on wet rock as well with no issues. The sole is a bit stiff but I think that's expected with the amount of cushion - I'm probably too used to Hattori which is true "barefoot" and bends freely.
