Best praise vs top criticism for Saucony Axon 3
“Don't know anything about those but they look like they won't be particularly good. If you're on a budget you might look at Saucony Axon 3, which is a versatile daily trainer with lots of cushion and probably a better starter shoe.”
“I like my axon 2's. I tried the Axon 3 in my usual size of 10 mens and it was way bigger than the 2's. Tried the 9.5 and it was two small. Might try a womens 11.5, as I feel like they'd be great in the right size.”
