Our verdict
The saucony shadow original light grey received mixed reviews from those who have tested it. Many were happy with this running shoe’s specifications and performance. The upper was breathable, the weight was reasonably light, and the price was very consumer-friendly. Nonetheless, some criticized the tight toe-box while others claimed that the overall in-shoe feel was a bit loose. Also, the color schemes apparently didn’t match those from the online photos.

Updates to the saucony shadow original light grey
- An added element in the midsole is a soft and spongy material that supports the foot throughout the run. It’s only a topsole unit as this shoe still has a GRID base.
- Shinier sheen overlays than what was on the previous iteration. The heel part has the ‘COHESION 12’ adorned on it, allowing people to distinguish it from its predecessors.
Experience enhanced reliable grips with the saucony shadow original light grey outsole
The outsole unit of the saucony shadow original light grey is comprised of the XT-600 rubber, a high-durability compound that is tasked with protecting the midsole from the harsh effects of surface contact and usage. It provides traction, which is an essential element of running.
Zigzagging flex grooves are patterned across the entire external pad. These trenches help the whole platform to bend in conjunction with the foot as it transitions from the heel to the toe during the run. The meandering structure results in sharp tips that may heighten the quality of the surface adhesion.
Saucony's GRID technology in the midsole
The GRID technology is comprised of a full-length foam that has a waffle-like design to it. Such an assembly allows the foam to easily bend with the foot. It also absorbs impact shock quite efficiently because it has intended pressure points on it.
The VERSAFOAM is a top layer that is soft-spongy against the foot. This layer provides high levels of comfort to the foot, permitting it to remain energized and enabled, even after extended periods.
Cool and dry running experience with the saucony shadow original light grey upper
The exterior part of the upper unit is made of breathable mesh. The porous nature of this textile fundamentally funnels air into the foot chamber, thereby maintaining a cool and dry experience for the foot.
Overlays are stitched onto the façade, giving targeted support to all areas that need it (the sides, the heel, and the instep). The stitched-on element bolsters the durability of the silhouette.
A shiny finish makes the façade as eye-catching as possible. The muted color schemes pay homage to the hues of the prior iterations of the Cohesion series.
The padded tongue and collar are responsible for supporting the ankles and the Achilles tendon. These parts of the upper prevent the foot from exiting the interior chamber accidentally.
Semi-round laces crisscross the instep section. This traditional tie-up system helps the runner when it comes to locking the foot in place and averting any in-shoe quavering.
The ‘COHESION 12’ is emblazoned on the lateral side of the upper while the Saucony logo is heat-fused on both sides.
