Daily Trainer

Saucony Ride 19

Saucony's plain daily trainer — soft PWRRUN+ under a familiar 8 mm drop, for the miles that fill an ordinary week.

The Ride is the shoe Saucony points an ordinary week at, and the 19 runs on PWRRUN+ with a 36 mm heel and an 8 mm drop. It lands soft, rolls forward and asks nothing of you. Easy days, steady days, and the long one on the weekend are all inside what it does well.

It suits you if you want one pair that covers most of your mileage without a decision attached to it. There is no plate, no rocker, nothing sharp about the ride, and the wide fit exists if you need it.

It is not fast. At around 255 g you feel every gram the moment you try a workout in it, and the road outsole has no grip to spare on a wet trail. Keep something lighter for the quick days.
