Saucony Triumph 23

Saucony Triumph 23 review: what runners say

Fit

True to size with a wraparound upper and well-padded heel collar. The toebox runs narrow: runners with wide feet or wide toes risk rubbing.

Feel

Cushioning is present but less soft than the stack height suggests; the PWRRUN PB delivers bounce without feeling mushy. Some runners report a heavier-than-expected feel on long runs.

Durability

XT-900 carbon rubber outsole shows minimal wear after 150 km. Stated expectation: 800+ km with cushioning retained. Potential weak point: narrow toebox may wear down the upper over time.

Best for

Daily trainer for easy running, recovery, and long slow-distance miles. Not suited for speed sessions or runners seeking responsiveness.

Weak points

Midsole judged not soft enough for a max-cushioned shoe; list price ($170/$190€) considered high for what's offered. Upper breathability insufficient in warm weather.
