"Women's Saucony® Ride 17: The Women's Saucony Ride 17 is a neutral daily training shoe that hits a sweet spot between cushioned comfort and responsive feel - making it a reliable go-to for mid to long distance road running. PWRRUN+ cushioning keeps the ride springy underfoot, so you get energy back with each stride rather than feeling like you're working against the shoe. If you log consistent miles and want a trainer that feels good from the first mile to the last, the Ride 17 is worth a close look.At 8.4 ounces, the Ride 17 runs light without sacrificing the cushioning that makes longer efforts feel manageable. The engineered mesh upper is breathable and keeps the fit secure without feeling restrictive, and the midfoot wrap adds a snug, dialed-in feel around the arch. An 8 mm heel-to-toe drop gives the shoe a natural, balanced ride that works well for neutral runners who want mid-level cushioning and a connected feel on the road. Improved ground contact helps the shoe feel stable and controlled, especially when you're pushing the pace or finishing a long run on tired legs.Why Our Fit Experts Love This Shoe""I recommend the Ride 17 a lot to runners who want something they can put on every day without overthinking it. The PWRRUN+ cushioning has a nice bounce to it - not so soft that it feels unstable, but enough that your legs thank you on longer runs. It's one of those shoes that just works."" - Sawyer, Road Runner Sports Fit Expert, Wilmette ILWho It's Best ForIf you're a neutral runner looking for a dependable road running shoe that handles mid to long distances without feeling heavy or sluggish, the Ride 17 is a strong fit. It works well for everyday training runs, longer weekend efforts, and runners who want mid-level cushioning with a responsive, energetic feel rather than a purely soft ride.
