This new release remains faithful to the essence of the Fastwitch series, being a benchmark for neutral runners and pronators. While it is true that it does not present radical changes with respect to the previous model, the Fastwitch 9 seeks to offer a more precise fit to achieve more lively rhythms. To do so, the American company is committed to incorporating the most cutting-edge technologies of the moment, such as the SSL EVA midsole or PWRTRAC technology.

Saucony Fastwitch 9, main features

The Saucony Fastwitch 9 Running shoes continue to show off that low profile of 4 mm that favors a more natural foot strike and conduction of the foot. Therefore, it is a specific model for runners who enjoy a good running technique that seek to get their best version during the most demanding runs.

The compression-molded SSL EVA midsole in this Saucony model offers excellent cushioning. While it is true that the low profile of these shoes requires a good running technique to get the most out of them, their internal structure also favors a superior energy return during the run.

The upper is made of a very light and breathable engineered mesh. While it is true that, at first glance, it does not represent a radical change from its predecessor, the Fastwitch 8, the upper of this new release combines ventilation and support with greater balance.

The PWRTRAC rubber outsole allows for superior traction compared to standard rubber. It also offers great abrasion resistance.
