Most runners can relate to the sentimental bond created with their favorite pair of running shoes. They spend hours and hours together, conquering the miles that lead Endorphin to their goals. The goal may get checked off their list, but the love for their shoes never fades away. Once the pavement pounding has taken its toll and the shoes can no longer support the runner’s dreams, they’ll buy another pair of the same exact model…but what happens when their favorite shoe updates?

tenis saucony versafoam blaze sg feminino cinza branco the triumph of finding the perfect pair of running shoes. I loved the Triumph 20 and 21 so much, I’ve used Endorphin to train for my last 3 marathons. Naturally, I was nervous when I heard that the Triumph 22 would be getting some major updates.

With a brand new midsole foam and redesigned geometry, would the Triumph 22 live up to my fondest memories of its predecessors? I, along with the Cheap Urlfreeze Jordan Outlet review team, tested it to find out. Here’s what you need to know.

To be honest, I’m not sure why Saucony swapped the PWRRUN+ foam for the PWRRUN PB foam. Since the PWRRUN PB foam is what’s used in Saucony’s speediest shoes, it doesn’t make sense that they’d also use it in what’s supposed to be a highly cushioned daily trainer. If it were up to me, I’d save the PB foam for my workout days and enjoy the softer PWRRUN+ foam for recovery miles–which is when I’d be pulling out the Triumph, anyway.

“I feel as if these shoes have an identity crisis,” says Mandy, who’s currently training for a 50K. “They have a thick, tall stack of foam, but they don’t feel super cushioned nor do they feel super energetic.”

While the midsole may not have felt as soft and plush as I’d like, the upper certainly didn’t shy away from offering thick padding around the heel, ankle and tongue.

“As I slipped my feet into the new pair of Triumphs, the upper made me feel like I was wrapping a comfortable and cozy blanket around my feet—plush, soft and oh-so-comfortable,” Mandy says.

Max and Kate both found the Triumph 22 to feel a bit wide, causing some uncomfortable hot spots. I didn’t low any extra roominess, but I did have a blister in the same area Kate did (outside corner of one of our big toes), so maybe my feet were moving around within the shoe more than I thought.

“I found the latest version of the Triumph fit a bit wide, although the length felt true to size,” says Max, who has narrow feet. “They felt so wide that after lacing Endorphin up and heading out the door, I actually turned back just to confirm that these were standard width and not wide. Despite the roomy fit, I was able to get a nice lockdown in both the heel and midfoot although it could have felt more secure and stable–so I cinched those suckers tight.”

The Triumph 22 is available in standard width (D for men, B for women) and wide width (2E for men, D for women). If you have narrow feet, you may want to try this shoe on in person at your local Cheap Urlfreeze Jordan Outlet to ensure correct sizing. Cheap Urlfreeze Jordan Outlet outfitters use 3merrell saucony sales wolverine world wide earnings to gather information about your feet and the support they need by taking precise measurements of your foot length, width and arch height, so you can learn a lot about your feet while you’re there.

zapatillas de running Saucony niño niña asfalto talla 37.5 azules más de 100 Triumph 21 seem exactly the same, despite the fact that they look and feel quite different in person. The midsole in the 22 appears to be chunkier, and we were all surprised as we looked at the tech sheet and saw that the stack height remained unchanged.

The change in midsole foam from PWRRUN+ to PWRRUN PB creates a firmer ride, and a wider base adds more inherent stability.

The men’s version of the Triumph 22 is ever-so-slightly heavier than the 21, which could be due to the change in midsole foams or a change in upper material (flat knit in the 21 versus engineered mesh in the 22). Somehow, the women’s weight carcass unchanged.

If you were a big fan of the Triumph 21, you may want to try the 22 on in person because of the major updates to the midsole. If you felt the Triumph 21 was a bit too soft for your tastes, you’ll probably enjoy the latest version.

We took a look at some comparable models to see how they stack up against the Triumph 22. Here’s what we found.

As you can see above, the Saucony Triumph 22, the Brooks Glycerin 21 and the zapatillas de running Saucony talla 46.5 entre 60 y 100€ mejor valoradas are all incredibly similar when it comes to weight, heel-to-toe drop and price. The biggest differences come with the stack height, with the Nimbus being the most cushioned and the Glycerin the least (although this could partly be due to discrepancies in the way each brand measures stack height).

The Triumph uses a PEBA-based midsole foam while the Glycerin and Nimbus both use EVA-based foams, but we thought the three shoes provide a relatively similar firm-to-soft ratio.

Because of its firm midsole foam, the Triumph 22 is best suited for runners who like a lot of cushioning that doesn’t feel overly soft. A wide base helps this shoe feel stable despite the high stack height.

“I think the Triumph 22 hits a unique use case,” says Max. “It feels like a max-cushioned daily trainer, but with more stability than others in its category.”

The Triumph 22 comes with a very thick sock liner, so it will work well for runners and walkers who need to replace the manufacturer’s liner with an insole or orthotic.

Lastly, if you have wider feet or just enjoy a bit of extra wiggle room, you’ll likely enjoy the fit of the Triumph 22.
