    Launch Season – Saucony Ride 18

    by Lionel Brahim Brodie III 

     

    How comforting is it when you can count on something without overexerting our already overstimulated brains? Every year, we know that New Year's Day is January 1, Saint Patrick's Day is March 17th, Independence Day is July 4th, and so on. We know that freezing temperature (for water) is at or below 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius), boiling temperature (again for water, not our tempers haha) is 212 °F (100 °C), and our body temperature (normal) is generally recognized as 98.6°F (37°C).

     

    Running has it's givens too, right? A marathon is 26.2 miles, which means a half–marathon clocks in at 13.1. The Broad Street 10–Miler is, well, 10 miles. The Philly 10K is, well, 10 kilometers. And for the neutral runner and the everyday runner, the flagship of the Saucony line is The Ride.

     

     

    The new Saucony Ride 18 feels great on foot! I am not surprised, as this is what we've come to expect over the last almost 2 decades. The Ride 18's engineered mesh upper is lightweight, so you'll feel fast on your feet, but also comfortable and secure, so you have confidence when exploding out of the corrals on race day, making sharp cuts at the gym, flying down Kelly Drive with your run club, or just bopping around all day. The cushioning has been upgraded with a soft and springy foam midsole and sockliner. Translation: its comfortable from the moment you open up the shoe box, peel back the tissue paper, untie the factory knot, and place these on your feet.

     

     

    Again, I was expecting it, but the Saucony Ride 18 will be your best friends from the moment you slide your feet into them. Clean hues on each colorway allow for everyday wear, whether you're styling the perfect Run Fit for your Instagram and Strava posts, wearing to and fro the office, or pairing with your favorite pair of jeans and a cozy sweatshirt.

     

     

    Find it comforting to add the Ride 18 into your rotation for daily runs, long distance on the weekends, and speed workouts when you are looking for something different than your normal tempo shoes.
