Is the ProGrid Omni 9 good for everyday walking?

Yes. The ProGrid midsole cushions each step and the structured overlays add stability, which suits daily walking and standing. It is heavier than modern lifestyle runners, so it is not the lightest pick.

How does it compare with newer Saucony lifestyle shoes?

It is more built-up and retro than Saucony's modern knit-upper models. Expect more stability and a firmer, chunkier ride rather than a soft, lightweight feel.

Does it fit true to size?

The Omni 9 uses a standard running-shoe fit with a roomy toe box. Most wearers take their usual Saucony size.

Is it breathable enough for summer?

The textured mesh helps, but the synthetic overlays and padded build make it warmer than knit-upper rivals. It is better suited to mild weather and everyday wear.

Can it be used for running?

It is built as a lifestyle shoe now. The cushioning and stability handle light jogs, but serious runners are better served by a current running model.
