Why We Like The Saucony Ride 17 Running Shoe
With upgraded cushioning and a breezier upper, the Saucony Ride 17 Running Shoe exhilarates our miles. The platform's rockered geometry and soft yet lively foam give us a smooth ride, padding our strikes and sailing us into quick transitions. As we pick up the pace and the sun bears down, the upper's revamped mesh invites more air to flow through.

Running on a cloud
I bought these about six weeks ago to replace my old shoes that were giving me bad heel pain. I’m still fighting that heel (mostly because I haven’t taken a day off) these shoes do a great job of cushioning the heel and minimizing the pain, it’s almost gone. My only issue is they feel a bit heavy on longer runs. They are perfect for 5m and under.

These are fantastic!!!
Best shoes I have ever had - literally!! I was a hardcore Brooks fan, until I tried these! I also bought a pair of Triumph 21's and those are almost as good as the Rides, but prefer everything about the Ride's! Perfect shoe in terms of fit, cushion and just all day wearability. I am not using them for running at the moment, but have logged quite a few miles in them walking and my feet are thanking me for this purchase!

Shoe of the Year
I absolutely love the Ride 17. It is my go to daily trainer that I can cruise through miles in (15+ mile runs). I am also able to pick up the pace so smoothly when needed. This shoe also provides a very stable ride. My shoe of the year! The Ride 17 is also remarkably comfortable. My legs love this shoe and I always look forward to lacing them up!

Not good for narrow feet
This is one of the least comfortable Ride editions. I have a narrow foot and when you tie it tightly, the bottom of the lace bunches up and pinches/pushes down on the upper toe which is extremely uncomfortable. Basically, I can’t wear these shoes. I’ve been using Rides for a long time now and this edition might be my last.

Smooth and Stable
A very well balanced shoe! If you are just starting out, or have been running for a while, you can’t go wrong with Ride 17. I would take Ride 17 any day over Brooks Ghost or Adrenaline. The foam will need about 20 miles to break in. I bought these shoes for running on the cushy treadmill and working out at Orangetheory, but often reach for them for street runs. Some online reviews say that Ride 17 and Triumph 21 are very similar. They are not. Aside from having the same foam, the running experience differs between these two. Ride 17 is a well balanced “do-it-all” shoe that can also push the pace, though not to the level of the Endorphin Speed. Triumph 21 is great for long runs where your gait gets tired, providing a great cushion for some heel-striking, and it is more bouncy as well. Triumph 21 can also push the pace to a similar level as Ride 17. I would not pick the Triumph 21 for running on a cushy treadmill. I prefer Ride 17 for walking. I rotate the Ride 17 with Hoka Clifton 9, essentially using both in the same scenarios, yet Ride 17 can be more easily pushed to faster paces. Highly Recommended.

The worst upgrade ever
The worst upgrade ever. Bulky, heavy, totally missing heel lock, even the laces are lousy. Luckily I have still two pairs of 16 which I can use until I find a replacement for Ride.

Comfortable and fast!
I bought them to replace the shoes I've been using to race in, but then began using them on training runs and noticed that my legs weren't as tired when I finished. Then I used them in a 5K and achieved my best time of the the year.

Very Comforable
I have purchased Saucony running shoes for at least 20 years. They never disapoint, fit great and very comforable. The Ride 17 is good lightweight shoe with a perfect fit.

Pretty much great.
My only gripe is that it makes my pinky toes go numb sometimes. Everything else feels good

Comfort goodness
I'm not much of a runner because of calf issues. But for an average joe these shoes and Saucony overall are phenomenal shoes. These particular ones are very comfortable and seem to give a bit of a push during the few times I have been able to run. These are my fourth pair of Saucony and i can't see me going anywhere else for running shoes. Keep up the good work
