What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I took the Xodus Ultra 3 out on a long trail run, and it's perfect for challenging terrain. The broader platform provides extra stability, and the new PWRTRAC outsole gives solid grip, even on wet or uneven paths. I also appreciate the extra cushioning—it absorbs impact really well without feeling bulky, so I can focus on the trail instead of foot fatigue."
When we're pushing toward the horizon on challenging trails, the Saucony Xodus Ultra 3 keeps us steady and comfortable. Designed specifically for ultra-distance runs, this shoe's broader platform and durable PWRRUN PB cushioning are crafted to go the distance. A tough PWTRAC outsole with 4mm lugs offers confidence-inspiring traction across diverse terrains, while the supportive PWRRUN frame protects our feet through every step. The lightweight, breathable mesh upper ensures our feet stay cool and keeps debris out so we can stay focused on the path ahead.

Stiff, no support, generally ill fitting shoe.
This shoe was unimpressive. I'm used to Hurricanes which are brilliant and this shoe does not come close. It's stiff, cheap looking and generally feels poorly made. I would nor recommend this shoe. I returned mine.

do NOT buy
Bought 2 pairs of these. Each pair had the soles start to come off just within a few uses. Poor quality.

Good heel support. Poor toe support
I deal with chronic inflammation in my big toes and need a lot of support from my shoes to keep inflammation to a minimum. I bought the Xodus Ultra with the hope it would give me all of the front end foot support I would need. Unfortunately it fell short. While the back of the foot (heel) support is top notch this shoe does not support toes for my level of need.

Very comfortable for long distances.
Bought the shoes online in a pinch because I needed trail running shoes to pace my buddy for 57-miles during his 100-miler. The shoes were fantastic and felt great for a 19-hour run. Highly recommend if you plan to put in some serious trail miles, or if you spend a lot of time on the trails.

Going the distance
Super pleased with these shoes. Buying my second pair today. I have a few hundred miles on my first pair and couldn't be happier with ride, grip and stability. I have an odd gait and the stability is super important for me. Great for ultras and all the fun training miles between.

Perfect for loooong trail days
SO comfortable! Extra cushy. 20+ miles straight out of the box, and another 50+ mile run a few weeks later. No issues at all, 5 stars, new favorite shoe!

Improvement over the 2nd version
These are good trail shoes, better than I initially felt about them. The forefoot cushion is still better in the first version which I have over 200 miles in, but these feel much better than 2 which I never ran in, only tried on. These do have a smoother roll to them than the original, and at a certain pace feel really smooth to run in. I'm only at 37 miles but I'm going to enjoy many runs in these. Saucony, in the next version shave some weight in the upper, no need for the tongue to be that big and long, and put a liitle more pebax in both the heel and forefoot. Overall though, good job.

Super Comfortable, But Chuck the Shoelaces
Xodus Ultra 3 is super comfortable on trails and asphalt. Nice grip. Good lockdown and traction. Very stable with no ankle wobbling/rolling. Plenty of toe splay. Not quite as snappy-feeling as version 2, but cushioning feels like an upgrade for those 50K's and beyond. Love the colorways. Only complaint are the shoelaces -- they're super stretchy, so getting lockdown that stays locked down is hard -- the laces slowlllly stretch and loosen up. Switch them out for non-stretchy laces and you're good to go.

Great cushioning for long distance
Xodus provides great comfort on feet especially when running on rocky trails. I live in Colorado, Xodus is well-suited to the mountain region out here. Highly recommend for runners who go beyond 15 miles.
