Saucony Hurricane 26 Women's review: what runners say
Fit
True to size with a secure heel and precise midfoot wrap. The toebox is wider than the H25, sufficient for toe splay on long runs.
Feel
IncrediLUX foam over a PWRRUN dual-density frame: soft landing without collapse, energy return superior to previous versions. No road feel due to the high stack of 41/35 mm.
Durability
Estimated 400–550 km based on testing. XT-900 carbon rubber outsole with solid coverage and less exposed foam than the H24; early signs favorable for heavy daily use.
Best for
Daily trainer for easy runs, long aerobic efforts, and active recovery. Suited for runners with mild-to-moderate overpronation seeking max cushioning with guidance. Not recommended for supinators or fast sessions.
Weak points
The high stack fully isolates from the ground and hinders turnover at sustained paces. Some runners report a high perceived weight despite the actual reduction versus the H25; one tester noted audible squeaking with every step.
