It’s a great time to be shopping for running shoes. Whether you’re looking for a sturdy and grippy pair of trail runners or a plush daily trainer for road running, great deals are everywhere right now. If Saucony is your go-to brand, you’re in luck, because the acclaimed Kinvara 14 just hit its rock-bottom price over at Zappos, and sizes are moving quickly.
The Saucony Kinvara 14 Running Shoe is on sale for as low as $80, up to 33% off its normal price of $120. This lean, peppy training shoe is discounted across four different colorways (all priced from $80 to $85), but the Citron/Black version has the best size range remaining—from 9 to 13. Regardless of size and colorway, Zappos shoppers love this sneaker: One said it’s “very comfortable” and another long-time fan even dubbed it the “best Kinvara ever.”

This streamlined, stripped-down Saucony training shoe is perfect for runners who prefer a more minimalist feel in their shoes. At just 31mm at the heel and 27mm at the forefoot, the Kinvara has a relatively low stack height, especially compared to many of today’s puffed-up trainers from brands like Hoka and Brooks. The midsole is made from Saucony’s Pwrrun EVA foam, and a Pwrrun+ sockliner adds a bit more softness in each step. Overall though, the ride is firm and responsive, with just enough cushioning to take the edge off impact. Thanks in part to the thin sole, the Kinvara is exceptionally light—the men’s model is roughly 7 ounces—and flexible. That makes it an ideal choice for speed workouts and sprint sessions, and the breezy mesh upper will keep your feet cool even when you’re really hauling.
Zappos shoppers appreciate the Kinvara’s feathery design, speedy feel, and comfy fit. “In addition to being incredibly light, I really like the lacing and tongue on these,” a shopper said. “I seem to get a perfect snugness every day without any adjustments.” Another shopper agreed, saying, “It’s so light and comfy…It’s my first Kinvara and I am amazed.”

“These shoes are firm and feel great on my feet while running,” said another reviewer, who added that they “fit perfectly.”
The Kinvara 14 is a light, streamlined training shoe that’s built for speed. If your max-cushion trainers are weighing you down, this shoe will set your feet free. And, at just $80, this shoe isn’t just fast, it’s also incredibly affordable, especially considering it’s a premier trainer from a vaunted running shoe brand. Grab your pair ASAP, because these popular kicks will certainly sell out fast.
