Saucony Women's Ride 7 Running Shoe

Saucony Ride 7 Women's Running Shoes The Saucony Ride 7 Women's Running Shoe ticks all the boxes a regular runner might need. Run responsively with the latest, greatest edition of Saucony's flagship neutral lightweight trainer. The latest edition of the Ride is synonymous with another four-letter word: F-A-S-T. Heel-to-toe Powergrid offers 15% less weight and 30% more durable cushioning than standard EVA for even smoother transitions with less weight, and the forefoot has been redesigned with vertical flex grooves for a more flexible foot motion and ground contact. iBR+ now extends further under the midfoot to enhance responsiveness and provide 3 times more cushioning than standard blown rubber. Ride enthusiasts will enjoy the 7th edition's versatility, comfort and durability when running those long distances. The plastic shank is gone from the midfoot, replaced by an additional pod of cushioned rubber (on the outside edge of the foot) and a carbon rubber pod (on the inside edge). The new construction provides a more supportive feel and reduces weight (the shank is heavier than the materials that replaced it). The forefoot platform has been made slightly broader, and the outsole configuration is flatter and provides more points of contact with the ground than previously (a similar design update was made from Guide 6 to Guide 7). Overall, the Ride 7 outsole provides roughly 20% more ground contact than Ride 6, which will make the shoe more durable, cushioned and supportive for the runner.
