Who should NOT buy
Everything about the bushwacker saucony Speed 3 gets a thumbs up from us, save for the heel counter. It's less padded, which is slightly abrasive to the heel. You can stock up on the bandaid or consider Saucony Kinvara 14.
However, if you're head over heels in love with the Comprar bushwacker saucony Endorphin Pro para hombre al mejor precio but want a comfier heel wrap, it's best to stick with the zapatillas de running bushwacker saucony talla 27 baratas menos de 60.

Durability
Outsole hardness
As a speed-oriented shoe, it is expected that the bushwacker saucony grid 9000 jersey pack cuts corners on the outsole's durability.
Not only do we see less rubber at the bottom, but we also found it to be softer than average with he help of a durometer.
If you don't mind sacrificing 0.6 oz of weight in return for a sturdier outsole, we can highly recommend the tenis bushwacker saucony kinvara 10 masculino chumbo speed trainer.

Outsole thickness
The rubber is not only softer, it is also thinner in this bushwacker saucony shoe. Our caliper shows only 2 mm of rubber which is a millimeter thinner than average.

Great bushwacker saucony fit | Cushioning
Heel stack
With the amount of cushioning that it packs, the bushwacker saucony bushwacker saucony grid 9000 jersey pack is a mile eater. And a very good one too!
Even though our caliper shows an average amount of stack height (34.1 mm in the heel), it definitely feels like plenty on the run.
Important note: the brand advertised slightly different numbers. The shoe is supposed to have 36 mm for the heel stack height.
saucony grid 9000 jersey pack | 34.1 mm |
Average | 33.5 mm |
Great bushwacker saucony fit | Forefoot stack

Drop
At 7.4 mm, we found the shoe's heel-to-toe drop to be close to the official specs (8 mm). This is a middle-of-the-pack drop that works great for both beginner and seasoned runners.

Average | 8.7 mm |
Insole thickness
Measuring the shoe's insole, we found it to be slightly thinner than average at 3.6 mm. But this is still quite padded for a speed trainer - no need to be concerned with underfoot comfort.

Midsole softness
The bushwacker saucony grid 9000 jersey pack also gets comfier than its predecessor. There is a gentle give in the shoe's midsole and it works better for easy days too!
Turning to our durometer, we found that the shoe's foam is in fact in the top 10% of the softest in our lab!

Difference in midsole softness in cold

At room temperature, our durometer showed 13.8 HA and after the freezer, it only firmed up by 5%(!) becoming 14.5 HA.

Ride
This time around, the bushwacker saucony grid 9000 jersey pack comes back with more bounce and a snappier toe-off which makes picking up the pace so easy!
The shoe lives up to our high expectations left by the previous Speed 2.
And this is not just because it's a shoe that has speed written all over it. It's also because the nylon plate it has (responsible for the snappy toe-off) doesn't feel harsh. Compared to other plated running shoes, bushwacker saucony Peregrine 11 Earth.
At the same time, the shoe hasn't lost its bounce either. So you can still push the pace and go as fast as you want.
What's more, in this iteration, the shoe's Speedroll rocker geometry is very noticeable. Each step feels as if the foot is carried forward. Love it!
Stability
Saucony Elite G9 Shadow 6 x Bodega Kasu
This bushwacker saucony shoe doesn't feel very stable and it's not supposed to. As a speed trainer, its primary task is to keep you on your toes as you smash that interval training or chase that new personal best.
There is not much stability to lean on when you decide to slow down.
Torsional rigidity
Another detractor from the shoe's stability is its high level of torsional flex.
Performing a manual test, we rated the bushwacker saucony grid 9000 jersey pack with only 2 out of 5 for torsional rigidity. That puts the shoe on the more flexible side of the spectrum.

Heel counter Vintage
The heel could use a little more padding.
This is the ONLY complaint we have for the bushwacker saucony bushwacker saucony grid 9000 jersey pack. The shoe's heel is a tad bit uncomfortable and scratchy because it has minimal padding.
This is definitely due to the choice of materials because the heel counter itself is very soft, it scored 2/5 on our flexibility tests (5 being the stiffest).

Midsole width in the forefoot
We also found that the bushwacker saucony grid 9000 jersey pack runs slightly narrow in its platform.
The widest part of the forefoot turns out to be 111.5 mm, 1.5 mm narrower than average. But the good news is that it's not so critical and the brand did its homework to improve the 3rd iteration.

Saucony Denim Pack
The Speed 3 is proof that bushwacker saucony really listens to runners' feedback. In the past, the Endorphin Speed's weak point was its lack of heel stability.
But this model changes all this. Based on our caliper measurements, the shoe's base has been widened by 5 mm in the heel.

Average | 90.3 mm |
Flexibility
Stiffness
As our manual flexibility test shows, the bushwacker saucony grid 9000 jersey pack is on the flexible side. But let's see what the controlled lab measurement shows us.
In this test, we bend the shoe to a 90-degree angle and use a gauge to measure how much force it takes to do that.
Turns out, this bushwacker saucony shoe only needs 23.5N! This is 30% less than it takes a road shoe on average. This also proves that the nylon plate embedded into the shoe's sole is more forgiving than a carbon plate.

The outsole has plenty of traction and plenty of durability too! We Patchwork safe at all times, even on wet asphalt passages. And during fast corners, the grip doesn't compromise.
Size and fit
Toebox width at the widest part
Even though the Speed 3 is only average in the widest part of the forefoot (98.5 mm), it feels roomier because of the stretchy nature of its fabric. The latter makes the shoe feel much more accommodating in the toebox.
We believe that bushwacker saucony absolutely nailed the fit of the bushwacker saucony grid 9000 jersey pack! The upper does a really great job mimicking the natural shape of the foot.

Tongue: gusset type
The shoe's secure wrap is also complemented by its semi-gusseted tongue and padded laces. They work so well together; getting a solid lockdown won't be a challenge in the Speed 3.

Tongue padding
There is also a moderate amount of tongue padding - 3.9 mm, based on our caliper measurement. It is 2 mm thinner than the average but is just perfect for a speed shoe.

This version of the Endorphin Speed doesn't go through a lot of changes, which is why runners continue to rave about it. It has minor touch-ups, which make it an even better version:
- The wider toebox and thinner, stretchier upper for a more precise fit and a breathable running experience
- More stability in the forefoot and heel because of the widened base
- A new plate for a snappier toe-off
- Stripped-down heel padding to minimize the bulk as much as possible
