Saucony progrid Guide 2
Get down to earth with the Saucony ProGrid Guide 5. This popular support shoe has moved from the traditional 12mm heel-to-toe drop to an 8mm heel-to-toe drop, bringing your heel closer to the ground and encouraging a more natural forward foot strike. On top of that the Guide 5 looses nearly 2 ounces in weight from its previous model, with greater flexibility and increased cushioning throughout, making this truly the best version to date.
Stack Height: Heel (28mm), Forefoot (20mm)
