Saucony launches new running gear

MANILA, Philippines - Delivering the brand’s biggest product initiative ever, Saucony has come up with breakthrough 8mm, heel-to-toe offset models, including three of the brand’s best-sellers – the Triumph 9, Guide 5 and Hurricane 14 – which allow for a lower impact strike and a more powerful running stride.

“With this revolutionary breakthrough, we’re now making the world’s best running shoes even better,” said Patrick O’Malley, Saucony’s senior vice president of global product. “Combining insight from the brand’s community of runners with the latest research from our state-of-the-art Human Performance and Innovation Lab, we discovered that engineering an 8mm heel-to-toe offset in our best-loved running shoes would offer great control, alignment and suspension.”

The newly released collection includes the Triumph 9, the brand’s premier neutral cushioned training shoe, and the Guide 5 and Hurricane 14, both light stability shoes. Both the Triumph and Hurricane feature three of the brand’s most advanced technologies.
