Today we talk about the new Saucony Breakthru 4, a running Running shoes that although it era already cataloged as a good shoe, has been slightly updated in this latest version. In this new model the American firm has opted for a change in the upper and sole, increasing the quality of the midsole. All this with a significant reduction in weight. The shoe can be classified for daily use by a neutral runner.
But let's go by parts, as for the performance of the midsole, they have left behind the classic and common EVA compound to opt for the PWRFOAM, it is a material with greater responsiveness in the shoe. This is combined with the EVERRUN insole that also works the responsive system while increasing the level of cushioning.
On the other hand, the upper of the Saucony Breakthru 4, as with many new models, is made of an engineered mesh that increases the level of fit and is combined with a padded tongue. The heel has also been molded to help increase the level of cushioning. Thus, we have a new shoe with increased breathability thanks to the upper fabric, more durable due to the materials used and with an optimal level of fit and comfort. All this makes the upper of this shoe is a much looser and promises greater comfort. And as previously mentioned, thanks to these new materials the weight of the shoe has also been reduced.
As for the outsole, it is now lighter and more durable thanks to the fact that it has been manufactured with IBR+ rubber, a very light and durable type of rubber. In addition, this area promises to improve cushioning and increase the runner's responsiveness. In order to increase the life of the shoe, Saucony has also chosen to include a denser rubber extract in the heel and toe, areas that normally wear out more easily due to daily use. The pattern used is the Saucony Tri-flex pattern that adds flexibility and traction. This makes it a very complete shoe.
As for technical specifications, as we have said they are light shoes below the 300 barrier, to be exact they have a weight of 244 gr And the drop is 8 mm.
