Saucony  Peregrine 16 Trail-Running Shoes - Men's

Not as secure as the 15’s or 14’s. Not great for trail running, maybe for a walk.

They’re really amazing. I went on a trail run/walk and it felt like I was walking on clouds. I did sprain my ankle since they’re not ankle length but they’re amazing and look good.

I was really trying to force myself to like this shoe, but after 20-30 miles I realized I didn’t like it as much as I loved the peregrine 13 and 14 and I returned them today. I felt like my foot was slipping sideways within the shoe every time I stepped somewhere that wasn’t side to side flat. I even tried REALLLY tightening my laces which I’ve NEVER done and it didn’t help. This was with a regular width shoe btw which is what I always buy. I also was getting pain in the balls of my feet. I could definitely feel the sharp rocks on the balls of my feet more than the previous models I had. Basically, the previous versions I had, I wore them and never thought about them. These shoes, I was constantly thinking about my feet slipping or how I could feel the rocks more under the balls of my feet. The trails in Tucson, AZ are very rocky and sharp. These shoes are probably fine in a more tame type of trail like in the forrest or something

I have been buying the Peregrine shoes for hiking for about 5 years now. I go through at least 2 pairs a year plus I have the GTX Peregrine shoes for the inclement weather, and they keep my feet dry. I only buy Saucony Brand shoes for my hiking and my everyday sneakers.

The fit is good, they feel secure just like the pair I bought a few years back. These have more cushion in the ball. But just like the years old model, not good for hardened, easy trails as they’ll really work calves which ultimately make the legs work harder. Standard fit has more width than other shoes, a plus , as I usually wear a wide. So like my old pair I had in Arizona. Good for softer, technical, rocky, rooted trails. Not an overall trail runner. P.S. REI, work on the reviews page for mobile. This thing is all over the place

Held through a 80 mile trail run through mud and water

Thank you Saucony!! I have been wearing peregrines for years, and in my humble opinion these are the best ones they've made. The new vibram sole is great, I think the shorter lugs actually give it a more balanced feel without sacrificing any traction. The cushioning is perfect. They feel very soft and also very wide and planted. They have a very secure feel. I think the uppers are a great balance of good durability and toughness while still feeling extremely breathable and light. I love em. More colors would be nice.

Second pair of saucony peregrines I’ve owned, love them! I bought the wide version this time, and they feel great. The regular width runs a little narrow for me, but the wide are perfect. Perfect shoes for the mountains!

Supportive lightweight trail running shoe with excellent grip

I’ve really enjoyed running in the Peregrine 16 so far. They look great and feel like an ideal balance between protection and lightweight responsiveness. They don’t feel bulky or overly cushioned, which I appreciate since I typically wear barefoot shoes and prefer footwear that doesn’t dramatically alter my mechanics. The drop feels natural and comfortable, and overall they’ve been a great, well-balanced trail shoe.
