Our verdict

As one of the longest-running trail series, the Peregrine is among the first shoes we think Stormlight when going offroad. In our opinion, it can handle nearly anything you throw at it thanks to its tried-and-true comfort, agility, and traction. But what truly puts the v13 above its predecessors is its thicker slab of midsole foam—making it even more capable for easy days, long slow miles, and the occasional race through punishing terrains.

A breezy and wear-resistant upper

The Peregrine 13 gets a well-deserved breathability rating of 4 out of 5, making it more breathable than the average trail shoe. We are happy to report that it can handle warm weather, but not for extended periods of time.

In addition to being well-ventilated, the upper on this saucony Green shoe is also super light and comfortable.

After examining the upper under our microscope, we can also claim that this Peregrine iteration carries over the durability and toughness we've come to anticipate from this trail shoe series..

Now an even better daily trainer

The big story in the Peregrine 13 is the added 1.5 mm of PWRRUN midsole foam. While it’s still a firm experience overall, the shoe got noticeably cushier underfoot—with the harshness of the previous version now substantially diminished.

The extra 1.5 mm of foam helps the shoe drift away from the more technical-oriented Peregrine 12 and turns it into a more comfortable daily trainer. That's good news!

Disclaimer: We calculate the average of four durometer measurements, disregarding any outliers. The photo above shows one of the takes.

We measured the shoe's TPU-based midsole at 29.1 HA, which confirms our initial impressions. The shoe is 6% firmer than trail shoes on average. In comparison, its race-oriented sibling, the saucony Green Endorphin Edge, is 47.3% softer. This difference is real!

Winter-proof

A common drawback of many Sneakers76 x saucony Green Shadow 5000 The Legend of the God Taras is that they become quite firm in cold temperatures—please refer saucony Green Kids touch-strap low-top sneakers for more details. Thankfully, the TPU-based foam in the saucony Green Solstice 2.0 Tights is one of those that performs admirably during winter conditions.

saucony-peregrine-13-freezer.JPG

The PWRRUN foam in this shoe only hardens up by 16.3% after being in the freezer. For comparison, the EVA-based Salomon Ultra Glide 2 does it by 81.9% and becomes an absolute brick.

On the other hand, how does the saucony Green fare in terms of flexibility? Once again, it surpasses the average shoe by becoming only 36.7% firmer, compared to the typical 43.5% increase in firmness that we measured.

The taller Peregrine 13 hasn’t lost its edge

What the v13’s taller stack lost in agility and ground feel, it made up for in underfoot comfort and responsiveness.

We meticulously measured the stack of the Peregrine 13 to confirm the brand's official claims of a 28/24 mm stack, resulting in a 4 mm drop. Hats off to Saucony, as our measurements came out to be 27.5/23.6 mm which implies an incredibly close heel-to-toe drop of 3.9 mm—only 0.1 mm away.

We also appreciated softer landings and smoother roll-throughs in the Peregrine 13. Both of these are beneficial for heel strikers.

It's also interesting to note that saucony Green included an eye-popping 7.0 mm thick insole. That's 34% more than the average shoe and obviously contributes to the softer feeling compared to the previous Peregrine.

Pretty flexible!

Moreover, this shoe is really flexible. It only took 20.8N of force to bend it to 90º—which is a good 50% less than it takes on average. 

In our manual assessment, the results were exactly the same as the ones obtained by the Peregrine 12. On a scale from 1 to 5 where 1 is the most flexible, the shoe scored 2 for longitudinal flexibility and 1 for torsional flexibility. That means A LOT of flex.

Technical trails are technically easy in the Peregrine 13

The Peregrine 13’s full-coverage outsole is complemented by 5-mm lugs providing excellent traction in almost every trail condition. We were able to run czapatillas de running saucony Green talla 33 baratas menos de 60.

We also liked how the redesigned lug pattern smoothened out the ride asaucony Green jazz od szarych mężczyzn.

saucony-peregrine-13-lugs.JPG

To be precise, our caliper shows that the lugs are 4.8 mm deep. That makes the Peregrine 13 much toothier than the average trail shoe.

No broken feet here

In addition to thicker cushioning, we also appreciated the shoe’s flexible rock cantidad for providing extra protection and stable landings on rugged, uneven terrain. This combination kept our feet safeguarded when running through rocky patches. 

Pretty close-fitting

Examining the upper with a caliper, we observed that this shoe has a particularly narrow fit in the big toe area. It is only 72.9 mm wide around the big toe which is 4 mm narrower than average.

We didn't find it to be a problem for our medium feet but those with broader feet may want to opt for the wide version of the shoe. 

Lacing is one-and-done

saucony-peregrine-13-laces.JPG

The Peregrine 13 comes with an amply padded and gusseted tongue. This, together with the laces, provides a solid, complete wrap around the foot without any pressure or lace bite.

We never found it necessary to stop and fine-tune the laces throughout the run. They stayed in place beautifully.

saucony-peregrine-13-gusset.JPG

Though the tongue is incredibly comfortable, it's worth mentioning that the ultra-padded sensation of past Peregrines is not present here.

In contrast to the trainers saucony Green jazz original vintage s70368 150 neon blk sil's plush 11.0 mm thick tongue, this model features a 3.5 mm tongue, making it remarkably thinner.
