I got my new running shoes about 45 days ago. Buying them was a part of my running comeback. So, I though I would give some credit to Saucony for the shoes.

The Saucony ProGrid Guide has been a great running shoe for me. I’ve had zero problems with shin splints or other weird pains. That’s really strong considering I’ve run everyday and I weight around 240 lbs.

My last pair of shoes were Grid Omni from Saucony, but the guys at the running shoe store wanted me to try these. They run smooth and are very breathable.

I just compared my shoe with the close-ups on GridPro Guide on the Saucony website. I’ve put about 100 miles on the shoes so far, plus wearing to my office sometimes. The blue material in the heel is slightly compacted and I am getting some tread wear on the bottom. The indented letters “XT – 900” are completely worn down. Overall the tread wear is in a normal pattern, at least it’s what the running shoe guys said should happen.

I’m not sure if the compacting and tread wear are at a normal pace, but I’m very pleased with the Saucony ProGrid Guide running shoes.
