Best Saucony Men's Echelon LE2 Walking Shoe Deals

Customer Ratings:

I recently purchased the Saucony Echelon LE in white based on the reviews of buyers and was very happy with them and wanted a black pair. Unfortunately, the LE shoe has been discontinued and I cannot find a black pair in my size, so I thought I would try the LE2, thinking it would have a similar look and feel of the LE, although more expensive. I was wrong. It is a different shoe. Slightly different appearance. Well made. Shoe was not comfortable right out of the box. I knew right away this would not be my "go to" shoe in my closet. The problem with the shoe is they have narrowed the forefoot box area from the LE and it is now too narrow for me (size D). Maybe this could be corrected by going to a wide shoe but I didn't want to risk it as I am not a wide in any shoes. Also, the heel cup has been reduced and does not retain the heel as well as the LE. I am disappointed that they took a great shoe and changed the fit too much from the original LE. I think others who were very happy with the LE and looking to replace an old pair with this one will be disappointed with this shoe. I returned the pair.

Nearly all my other shoes are 10.5US Medium width mens. I bought 10.5W, 11M, and 11W, and I really need the 11W. Just now at the 50 mile point, and they feel good. They are light, stable, and feel right while striding. I wear blisters on the outer edge of my big toe, but do that in many other shoes. I can recommend these for any serious walker.

Best Deals on Saucony Men's Echelon LE2 Walking Shoe

I walk trails five miles a day, six days a week. I have been walking like this for about ten years. I used to go through at least two pairs of shoes each year. My walking shoes make a big difference in my foot and leg health. I have tried a lot of shoes and these Echelon's are, by a wide margin, the best. I live in Oregon so the shoes take a beating in the rain and mud. I had the Echelon LE's before I purchase these and I use those for backups now -and they are 18 months old. The uppers did not wear out. The soles lost about 1/8" of tread -it was the insert that wore out and I replaced it with another insert. Pretty amazing. I have been wearing the LE2 for a couple of months -30 miles a week. They are even more comfortable that the LE's. I see a lot of walkers that wear running shoes or cross trainers. A good walking shoe makes all the difference in the world. I am 6'6" and weigh 235. I have had knee, back, Achilles, and plantar faceitis problems from bad shoes or shoes that wear out too fast. I know that these are expensive shoes -the best always cost a little more...

Honest reviews on Saucony Men's Echelon LE2 Walking Shoe

This shoes are amazing, one of the best I have. I am big guy and they fit comfortable, no pain.

I use ortopedics and they squeak a lot (I tried all remedies, talcum powder, etc. Nothing stop the noise), the sole has a squeaky noise too. So, I am twice squeaky ;)

If you weight comfort vs noise, comfort wins all the time. If you can pass the noise, then go for them.
