Getting to know the Saucony Hurricane
The Saucony Hurricane is a running shoe in Saucony’s long line of trainers. The company began in 1898 on the banks of Saucony Creek in Pennsylvania and now makes running shoes, apparel, and accessories for runners worldwide.
The Saucony Hurricane is a stability trainer that’s built to give you guided support and extra cushioning. Recent versions use PWRRUN PB over a responsive foam and a CentrePath guide to help offer you a controlled stride, which also gives it a more springy feel.
If you’re a daily runner or spend a lot of time on your feet and need something stable and comfortable, the Hurricane might be the right fit for you. You’ll find a variety of profiles, with everything from black women's trainers to much more vibrant versions.
The many updates of the Hurricane shoe by Saucony
The Hurricane shoe by Saucony has moved through several updates, with the latest versions trading a firmer foam for a lighter PWRRUN PB top layer and a reworked outsole to add flexibility without losing support. They also blend well with sports clothing, especially tracksuit bottoms.
If you run with thicker socks or have a broader foot, these are known to be a little narrow, so look at going half a size up. These models include a secure heel and breathable netting to give you extra comfort.
Suiting everything from long runs to daily walks
The Saucony Hurricane suits long, steady runs, recovery miles, and long days on your feet. You can use them for training blocks where protection and balance matter more than outright speed. They pair beautifully with running attire, but they’re cool enough to go with evening outfits like a white maxi dress and a faux fur throwover.
Caring for them is simple. You can brush away loose dirt, wipe the netting with a damp cloth, and air dry the shoe. Replace a pair after 400 to 600 miles if the cushioning feels reduced.
