'cause I'm a very heavy supinator so the outsole of my Ride 13 (like the outsole of my last Glycerin 17) was flattened just after 30-40 km. I've noticed that the actual outsole of Ride and glycerin is something like blown rubber, like a very abrasive material.

For my wide forefoot, the T17 felt much more comfortable, meaning that the toebox felt significantly wider. is this just my personal impression or did Saucony changed the fit? <br /><br />As far as breathebility is concerned, i did not recognize a big difference. if i had to choose, i would even go with the T17, which did not heat up that much as the T18, but this can also be a subjective impression as "on paper" the upper of the T18 should have been improved according to the stats...?Marcelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04862225190267602959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10529476.post-90113335900474431792020-07-06T05:26:55.963-06:002020-07-06T05:26:55.963-06:00Thanks Josh!

More cushion, a bit more weight, improved upper, a bit smoother and more stable<br />SamSam Winebaumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17969086391170473784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10529476.post-78147651460078235272020-07-05T19:42:53.625-06:002020-07-05T19:42:53.625-06:00Hey Sam, great review.

I have a question: is the Triumph 18 a big upgrade over the 17 or if I stick with the 17 am getting pretty much the same shoe (big discounts on the 17 right now). I like the 17 and would probably grab another pair unless the 18 is a real upgrade.

Been d...Thanks Sam for the very informative review! Been doing most of my mileage in the Triumph 17 which I absolutely love. Will be buying the 18 as soon as it’s available. Just purchased the Shift, but haven’t had the opportunity to run in them yet. I’m excited about the 18 having possible a little more cushioning and a little less plush upper. Once again, thanks for the best reviews online. Do you have links to the different running shoe websites where part of the purchase price goes to support your channel? I buy a lot of shoes and would like to help out.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04275932643171276866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10529476.post-28892241672760031242020-07-03T22:59:12.364-06:002020-07-03T22:59:12.364-06:00The big question - is the upper more breathable in...The big question - is the upper more breathable in this version than the 17 or is it still on the hot side.
