Critics & buyers

What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Very plush, comfortable dual-layer midsole with a bouncier top foam and firmer supportive frame underneath
- Wide platform gives strong stability without feeling clunky or overly rigid
- Comfortable, well-padded engineered mesh upper with secure, traditional lacing
Reviewers push back
- Tongue is not gusseted, causing minor slippage or edge roll for some runners
- Shoe is on the heavier side for its category
- Bulky, high-stack look may not appeal to those wanting a low-profile stability shoe
Reviewers largely agree the Hurricane 24 is a plush, wide, and surprisingly lively stability trainer that hides its stability under a comfortable, cushioned ride.
One reviewer felt this is essentially a step up from Saucony's other stability shoes, while another sees it as its own distinct max-cushion proposition
