Good traini

Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2020

The shoes are lightweight and a harder surface bottom which is greater for tempo workouts, faster intervals, and racing. Even works pretty well on trails.

Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2021

I have been running in the Saucony Grid A series since the A4 and love them until now. I have owned the 4, 5, 6, and 8. These have been the only ones to cut my ankle like this. I have worn them for just 1 hour. There is no padding at the back like previous versions. Disappointing because the shoe fits well(the rest of my foot) and is very light.

lightest shoes i've ever owned. very responsive. upper offers little in the way of support, but what can you expect for a shoe this light? great for short, fast runs (5-10k). probably not so great for longer distances, but i can't confirm from experience.

Shoelaces are horrible (UPDATE)

Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2021

I liked my Saucony Freedom ISO, my ISO 2, my A8.
I was excited to receive my A9, after my A8 gave up (450mi, not bad for a lightweight shoe).
The A9 fit me well, as well as the A8. They even seemed a touch more stable than the A8, which I welcomed.

But they come untied, every mile or every 2 miles depending on the day. I looked up on the web how to properly tie shoes (something I never had to do before) so they wouldnt come untied. Didnt quite work. I have to do some nasty double knots. I'm still looking online for ways to tie them so that they wont come undone. But seriously. It shouldnt be that hard.

Will be looking for some old A8s to purchase and save for later.

------------------------

December 2021 update. Well, forget the above. I reused the A8's shoelaces in my A9, problem solved. After 400 miles, I like how they're more durable than the A8. I ordered my second pair (in a color I like less) because the newer Fastswitch just dont do it for me.

Very light

The only thing I worry about is durability. They are very light. My feet tear shoes up with my bony heels, so we'll see what happens between heels and soles.

Used the shoe for training, would also use it for racing. Got over 300 miles on these shoes. Longest training run was 25 miles! Low cost shoe that I will be purchasing again!

Somewhat of a tight fit but overall comfortable. Using as golf shoes.

Unlike numerous pairs of Saucony’s, this style was a little tight fitting. I bought these to use as light weight golf shoes and they do provide the traction needed. Overall they are very light and comfortable.

It was a great run up to A8

Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2021

They have been "adding to" this shoe every since the A5 and they have finally done it, they put so many extras on the shoe that is it no longer a light weight, flexible, fast shoe. For some reason, they also curved the toe box to the outside on this shoe. The A8 has too many support and control functions designed into the shoe but at least it was designed for human feet.
