My husband got these to referee in since his feet were constantly hurting. From the first day with these, he noticed a huge difference. He finds them very comfortable yet sturdy.

I'm a fan of Saucony shoes and having been wearing them for over a decade. I especially like their classics for their styling. I had an earlier version of this Bullet with a gray sole that I liked, but I love the new red sole even more.
The Bullets run small. For most shoes, I usually wear a size 10. For most Sauconys, it's 10.5. For Bullets, it's 11. They're also slender and not a good choice for wide feet. They're very flexible, but they're durable. The sole seems thin, but they're very comfy. After wearing this style, I'm having a hard time going back to the Jazz Low Pros, or any of the other styles - they seem really bulky.

Packed well and looks great. Fits perfectly. Weather has been terrible most likely won't wear until spring. Box and packaging was great as well.

They look good, and they seem well made, but the toe box is waaay too narrow for me, even moving up a half-size. Very easy to get on with the rear pull-tab. Elastic on the inside of the tongue should hold it in place no matter how the terrain is pushing you, so that should help keep debris out of the shoe. Kudos for the included black and turquoise laces if you don't like the stock blue. It's too bad they were unbearably narrow in the front for me.

First off, I wear a size 14 in most shoes, including Five Ten Freerider mountain biking shoes. These are only made up to a 13. I heard that they come a little large though and decided to try them out. I'm not sure if this is true across all sizes, but the 13 is more like a 13.75. They ended up fitting me very well. So, be careful on the size.
The main reason I bought these though is that I LOVE the Stealth rubber soles on my MTB shoes and wanted to try out a pair of hiking/approach shoes from Five Ten. Even though the tread pattern doesn't look terribly aggressive, these are the best gripping trail shoes I've owned. They are comfortable all around with a reasonably wide toe box and good cushioning at the top of the tongue and under the ankle. The soles are stiff and took a little while to break in. I still wouldn't say they've "softened" all that much though. The bottom of the shoe is pretty stiff and the inner sole is not very cushy. They are comfortable for wearing all day though. I recently traveled with them for 10 days as my only pair of shoes both walking around town and hiking. So, they're fine. If you like a soft sole or lots of padding though, these are definitely not for you.
The only complaint I have is that these shoes do not breathe well at all. They're mostly a soft leather with a little bit of mesh. The mesh is thick though. My feet get hot in lots of shoes, but these are very hot. The flip side is that they do a decent job of keeping moisture out. During rainy hikes, my feet have stayed pretty dry. For me, the durability is nice. I've beaten up a lot of shoes hiking and I can tell these are going to hold up well. They're very well made and solid.
Overall, I really like these shoes. You just have to be good with the tradeoffs. They choose durability, grip and stiffness over being lightweight and breathable. And I feel like I should repeat that they are not cushy. They have stiff soles, but flex enough to walk around in all day no matter what the terrain. Give them a try if that's what you're after.
