Official Saucony Originals / Retro Thread

West should have a Saucony display...they had some stuff on clearance when i was there a few weeks ago..

Grid 9000s are super comfortable and have a pretty cool wrap tongue thing..

I used to love Spotbilt hi-tops from Sears
 
bought the camo bodega collabs in a 10.5 but they fit a lil big.

lookin to trade for a 10. if anyone is interested, PM me...
 
Yeah, I got the grey/blue shadow 6 and they run HUGE. Sauconys usually run kinda narrow like an air max retro. These fit more like a new balance classic. I prolly could have gone down a full size.
 
For me, Sauconys run pretty big. I'm usually a sz 11.5 or even 12 for some narrower shoes, but I wear sz 11 for Grid 9000s.
 
i feel that saucony's generally run .5 size large to tts. really depends on the materials used though. for example, my size 8.5 grid 9000 bushwackers feel a bit loose, but the packer shoes collab grid 9000 size 8.5 feel perfect.
 
Weird, I had a 10 in the bushwackers that actually felt a little small, narrow. I got a 10 in these bodega g6 and they're huge on me.
 
Thanks for the info on the saucony x bodega latest collabo. I was worried cause I ordered my true size (11.5) & I have wide feet. Hopefully they'll fit.

I agree w/ XIV, on the bushwackers/bushwhackers. I was told sauconys run big, so I ordered the bushwackers/bushwhackers in an 11 & they snug as a mug!
 
Damn that's weird I always have gone TTS with Saucony's - appreciate the heads up on the new Bodega's.  Looks like I'll go for a 10 instead of my usual 10.5.  Does anyone know when the next 2 Bodega Shadow joints drop?
 
BTW - people that were looking for those old Bodega collabs (the blue and grey 5000's from 2010) - somebody has like 5 pairs up on Feebay with a $280 starting bid.  And somebody already has the new Solebox's up for $280 Buy It Now.  SMH

which g9 elite did you get specifically? because while they're all grid 9000 soles, the uppers are different silos...i have the g9 shadow 5 (grey) in a size 8 (since they didn't make any in 8.5) and they fit perfect (again, my tts is 8.5).

so like i said before, saucony's are generally tts or run .5 size big.

personally suggest folks should order tts in most cases (and it's always better to have a shoe be slightly loose rather than too small/tight/uncomfortable to wear).
 
Azrael, I definitely agree with what you're saying. When in doubt go true to size. I got the new bodega shadow 6's. for me, they are the biggest size 10 I've ever owned from any brand. Luckily was still able to cop a 9.5 for close to retail. Though I'm worried they'll still be a little big. I'll post an update on those when I receive em on Saturday. FYI: I have narrow feet.

I received both the shadow 6 & 5 yesterday. I think its cool they run a lil big. They fit me just perfect now. I'm officially a fan now. I was very impressed. The extra room is nice especially for those days I don't drink alotta water (feet swelling). Hahahaha, you young cats don't know bout that.

XIV & Azrael, you guys are def right. So much easier to deal w/ a lil extra room in a shoe versus a tight & uncomfy shoe

Got mine with the quickness from Premier. Love these, can't wait to rock them all the time. So comfy.
 
I ended up buying a 10.5 for the shadow 5 and now hoping to resell to buy my regular size so far no luck on ebay
 
FYI westnyc has the purple shadow 5000s from the 3 brothers pack in stock...
Has anyone on here copped any of those new Solebox 3 Brothers?  I'm regretting missing out on them now - they kinda flew under the radar and now resellers are charging rape prices for the 2 pairs available on eBay.

For me they are MEH.. the Bodega Collab is more comfy. Thats my opinion though
