Back to Results Saucony Grid Tangent Manufacturer: Saucony Price: $100 Reviewed in: Jun 2005 Shoe Guide Runner's World Awards: Editor's Choice Average Reader Rating: 5 stars (1 review) Shoe Type: Performance Training See Specifications Runner's World Awards: Editor's Choice We Say: A great new shoe, Saucony's Tangent features a plastic heel counter and firmer foam on the medial (inner) side of the shoe, which both enhance stability. A midfoot support bridge provides a smooth transition from heel to toe, and the upper comes with a nifty bootie that provides a glove-like fit. According to our tests, the Tangent has a slightly softer heel and more flexibility than the Trigon 3 Ride. The Tangent is a durable, lightweight shoe with a touch of stability. Wear-Testers Say: "Though they're light, they have excellent cushioning and stability." -Katie Mech, 21, East Lansing "The only improvement I would suggest is slightly softer cushioning in the forefoot." -Nathan Usher, 22, East Lansing Average Reader Rating: 5 stars (1 review) Write a Review 5 stars This shoe is awesome and by far the best shoe I have had! I will never go back to anything else. They are light, fast and have good stability as well...perfect!!!.
