It’s snappy, responsive and offers just enough bounce to make it an enjoyable shoe to run in too. The upper is light, comfortable and has just the right amount of space. Overall, the Pro 2 is a strong performance shoe that comes in less than its competitors, but doesn’t shortchange you in terms of the experience. There’s plenty of exposed foam, but there’s definitely a little more there than some other performance shoes, so it should get you a few more kilometres in comparison. We don’t have huge complaints about the outsole, which (like a lot of performance shoes) has serious question marks over how many runs it can handle.

You absolutely wouldn’t want to take these off-road from a durability point of view as they’re firmly made for flat and predictable running terrain. We used it on the road in both dry and wet conditions, and on the track, and found traction was pleasingly strong. Saucony hasn’t changed things here on the outsole either, offering the same XT-900 outsole with reinforced high-abrasion zones, which are essentially in place to offer better durability in the areas that will do the most pounding.

There’s still a full length curved carbon plate with Saucony’s PEBA-packing PWRRUN PB midsole combined with Saucony’s Speedroll geometry aiming to offer that snappy, responsive feel. You’re getting the same 8mm stack height as the first Pro, which sits at 35.5mm at the heel and 27.5mm at the forefoot. It’s not quite as light as something like the Asics Metaspeed Sky, but that mesh upper and light midsole clearly helps keep that weight down and lets you know this is a shoe for speed. In terms of weight, things haven’t changed from the original Pro.
