Saucony Shadow 5000 Reviews

Here’s all the Saucony Shadow 5000 reviews on the site!  Saucony first released the Shadow 5000 in 1989.  It was intended to be a performance runner and matches the late 80’s-early 90’s pointy toe runner aesthetic that I love.

I’m fairly sure the first pair of Saucony I ever bought were Shadow 5000s.  You are not always guaranteed good materials with Saucony, but they usually bring great value in this department.  With the 5000, I’ve typically gotten good materials, a great shape, and great comfort.

I’ve said that either the Shadow 5000 or the 6000 are my favorite Sauconys.  While I’ve owned more 6000s, I can’t say for sure whether I like that model more than the 5k at the end of the day.
