Yeah’s verdict
The Saucony Hurricane 24 is a genuinely impressive cushioned stability shoe that surprised The Run Testers with its comfort and ride quality. If you want a soft, stable, easy-run shoe and don’t mind the heft, it’s a strong contender—even reviewers who don’t need stability enjoyed it. But the weight and clunky feel are real drawbacks; if you prioritize lighter, more versatile shoes, this isn’t for you.
Best for
The Saucony Hurricane 24 is a high-stack, max-cushioned stability shoe that shines as a daily trainer for easy miles, recovery runs, and long runs at a relaxed pace. It’s built for runners who want a very comfortable, smooth-rolling ride with subtle, non-intrusive stability — the wide platform and high sidewalls guide your foot without a firm medial post. Best for neutral runners who want a bit of extra support, those who need light stability, or heavier runners looking for a solid, grounded platform. Not suited for speedwork or racing; keep it for clocking up comfortable miles on the road.
What reviewers said
- The Run Testers were broadly enthusiastic: they called the Hurricane 24 a “surprise” shoe (mention 20) that offers a “lovely balance of cushioning” (mention 13) with a smooth, comfortable ride (mention 4).
- The midsole uses a soft PowerRun PB foam that still provides some bounce (mention 7), and the shoe’s stability is integrated subtly—it’s a genuine stability shoe that doesn’t ride like a traditional one (mentions 4, 13).
- It ranked as a joint winner alongside the Brooks Glycerin Max (mention 10).
- Weight is the most commonly cited drawback.
- The Hurricane 24 weighs 316–323 g (11.2–11.4 oz), which both Doctors of Running and The Run Testers describe as heavy (mentions 3, 17, 18).
