Verdict
The Saucony Ride 17 is a high-performing option in its class — a daily trainer scoring 86/100 in SoleHunt's data-driven evaluation, drawing on 0 consumer reviews and 0 independent expert tests. Tipping the scales at 256g, it is light for a daily trainer. The 34mm heel stack — a generous stack — delivers a comfortably cushioned ride at 29 HC, returning 67% of impact energy and feeling responsive and lively underfoot. Geometrically, the Ride 17 runs on a mid 8mm drop that works with most running gaits, with a 26mm forefoot stack that maintains the traditional heel-elevated geometry runners with tight calves often prefer. Fit-wise, the toebox measures 91mm — medium-width, comfortable for most foot shapes — and the upper is available in D/2E widths. Slightly narrow midfoot — wide feet try 2E. The removable insole makes it compatible with custom orthotics. It is designed for speed sessions, daily training, breathability, and performs less well for max cushion or very wide feet.
