Saucony Ride TR2 GTX

Saucony Ride TR2 GTX review: what runners say

Fit

True to size, medium volume. The toe box is not narrow and allows enough room for swelling on long distances; wide-footed runners may consider going up a half size.

Feel

35mm PWRRUN+ delivers plush cushioning with decent responsiveness thanks to the slightly rockered geometry. The ride is smooth on asphalt and stays controlled on light off-road, without lively energy return.

Durability

Over 400 km documented with upper and outsole in solid condition. PWRTRAC rubber outsole with 3.5mm lugs: holds up well on mixed asphalt-dirt, but not designed for technical abrasive terrain.

Best for

Runners who mix asphalt, gravel, and light trail in a single outing. Daily trainer at moderate pace; not suited for fast sessions or demanding technical terrain.

Weak points

Limited breathability: the dense mesh and high collar trap heat, a noticeable issue above 77°F (25°C). High weight (296g men's) and low-reactivity midsole rule it out for fast work.
