On the run

Hurricane 26: Bouncy max cushion with support. Plush and bouncy, with a soft new foam held in a supportive frame. It’s much livelier and lighter than the old Hurricane.

Triumph 24: Max cushion with real bounce. Lively and bouncy thanks to Saucony’s new foam, with a balanced rather than mushy feel and a gentle rocker. It’s tall but light for its size and stays peppy when you pick up the pace.

Fit

Hurricane 26. Normal width with a toebox that tapers a little, and a secure, well-padded heel. Wide available.

Triumph 24. True to size, with excellent heel lockdown. It has more volume than the 23, but the toebox measures on the snug side, so wide feet should take the wide.
