Saucony Omni...Anyone have any experience or advice (Read 576 times)

Best. Shoe. Ever! I think it is neutral to mildly supportive, which is about what I generally prefer. But the Omni is the shoe that I have kept coming back to over the years.

My local store sells them a bit less, I think. Also, FWIW, the word, "Saucony", comes from the name of a river in PA. The word is a Native American word that means, "fast moving water". The swoosh on the shoe design is meant to represent the river, with the three dots on the swoosh symbolizing three stones or small islands in the river. Interestingly, the ancient Greek word for fast moving water is, "trent". So I am destined to wear this company's shoes.

Never had a blister with an Omni. Are your shoes sized correctly and are you wearing the right socks?

Yep. Our local running store took care of me as far as size goes. I wear the right socks. Like I said, it is not unusual for me get blisters when I get new shoes. The only ones that I didn't get them with were the 2120's. I got blisters even after spending too much on the Kayano 13's. They are more of a nusiance than anything else. They hurt a for a bit, I pop them, they become caluses.
