FAQs
What kind of runner are the Saucony Guide 18 Wide shoes for?
These shoes are specifically designed for runners who require stability to manage overpronation and those with wider feet seeking additional comfort and space during daily training.
What is PWRRUN+ cushioning?
PWRRUN+ is Saucony's premium cushioning material known for providing a soft, highly responsive, and durable ride, offering maximum comfort and smooth transitions during your run.
What does a 6mm drop mean?
The 6mm drop refers to the difference in height between the heel (35mm) and the forefoot (29mm) of the shoe. This moderate drop can encourage a more natural foot strike for many runners.
Can I use these shoes for racing?
While the Guide 18 provides excellent support for daily training, some runners might prefer lighter, more aggressive racing flats for competition. However, for longer distance races where stability and comfort are paramount, these could be a suitable option.
How often should I replace my Saucony Guide 18 Wide shoes?
The typical lifespan for running shoes is between 300-500 miles. Factors like your running style, body weight, and terrain can influence this. Pay attention to signs of wear on the outsole and reduced cushioning responsiveness.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The breathable mesh upper of the Saucony Guide 18 Wide is not waterproof. It is designed to allow air circulation to keep your feet cool and comfortable, but it will not protect against significant water exposure.
Troubleshooting
My feet feel cramped despite the wide fit.
Ensure you have selected the correct shoe size. If the length is right, check your socks; overly thick socks can reduce the effective space. Try adjusting lacing to relieve pressure points, particularly over the instep.
I'm not feeling the expected stability or support.
Verify that these shoes align with your specific pronation needs; they are designed for overpronation. Make sure the shoes are laced securely. If the issue persists, consult with a running specialist to confirm your gait analysis and shoe requirements.
The cushioning feels less responsive over time.
Running shoe cushioning naturally compresses over mileage. While PWRRUN+ is durable, consider your shoe's mileage. Most running shoes need replacement between 300-500 miles, depending on individual use and weight.
