The Grivet Take
The Hurricane 25 is Saucony's premium max-cushion stability trainer, and the v25 is an upgrade across the board over the v24. Dual-layer PWRRUN PB over PWRRUN gives a soft, bouncy ride that's still controlled; the redesigned CenterPath geometry guides rather than corrects. 36/30 stack with a 6mm drop, weight down to 10 oz from the v24's 11.2 oz. Best for daily easy miles, long runs, recovery days, and walkers who want premium cushion plus modern non-posted stability. Skip it for speed work; the geometry is built for cruise pace, not racing. Customers cross-shopping the Brooks Glycerin GTS line should consider this for the PEBA-leaning ride character.

Support
Support TypeSupport Type describes how much built-in guidance the shoe has. Neutral shoes do not add support structure. Stability shoes use geometry, rails, firmer foam, or frame designs to create a more guided feel. Motion control shoes are the maximum-support category and are rare in modern running.

Wider, steadier base
How it fits
Fits true to size with a more accommodating toe box than the v24. Engineered mesh upper wraps the foot naturally without feeling restrictive. Midfoot is normal volume; heel hold is secure. Available in Standard (D) and Wide (2E) for men's, which makes it a strong fit for wider feet looking for premium stability cushion.
How it feels
Cushion is at the top of the scale; the dual-layer PWRRUN PB on top of PWRRUN reads soft and bouncy underfoot with measured stability that doesn't poke or push the foot around. CenterPath geometry — Saucony's frame-based stability system — guides the gait gently rather than correcting it forcefully. Smooth fluid transition from heel to toe. Energy return is moderate-good for the stability category. XT-900 rubber outsole grips well on wet roads.

Tech, translated
PWRRUN PB over PWRRUN (dual-layer) is the structural cushion of the Hurricane 25. PWRRUN PB is Saucony's PEBA-based supercritical foam from the Endorphin race line; PWRRUN is the durable EVA blend underneath. Combination delivers premium softness on top with stable support below.
CenterPath Technology is Saucony's frame-based stability geometry, redesigned in the v25 to guide rather than correct. Instead of medial posts or aggressive rails, the midsole shape itself nudges the gait toward center.
XT-900 rubber is Saucony's premium outsole compound. Tough, grippy on wet roads, and durable across high-mileage use.
What changed from the previous version
The Hurricane 25 is lighter (10 oz vs 11.2 oz in men's 9), softer thanks to the new dual-layer PWRRUN PB over PWRRUN midsole, and uses a redesigned CenterPath geometry that guides rather than corrects. The toe box opened up; the engineered mesh upper is more forgiving. v24 fans should expect a softer, bouncier ride with the same general support character; the upgrade is broadly positive.
Frequently asked
Does the Saucony Hurricane 25 run true to size?
Yes, the Hurricane 25 fits true to size with a more accommodating toe box than the v24. The engineered mesh upper wraps the foot naturally without feeling restrictive. Available in Standard (D) and Wide (2E) for men's. Runners with extra-wide feet who need 4E should consider the Saucony Echelon line instead.
What changed from the Saucony Hurricane 24?
The Hurricane 25 is lighter (10 oz vs 11.2 oz in men's 9), softer thanks to the new dual-layer PWRRUN PB over PWRRUN midsole, and uses a redesigned CenterPath geometry that guides rather than corrects. The toe box opened up; the upper is more forgiving. v24 fans should expect a softer, bouncier ride with the same general support character.
How does the Saucony Hurricane 25 compare to the Brooks Glycerin GTS 23?
Both are premium max-cushion stability trainers at the $170-180 price tier. The Hurricane 25 uses dual-layer PWRRUN PB over PWRRUN with frame-based CenterPath geometry. The Glycerin GTS 23 uses dual-density DNA Tuned with sidewall GuideRails. The Hurricane reads softer and more PEBA-bouncy; the Glycerin GTS reads more controlled. Choose based on whether you prefer Saucony's frame stability or Brooks's GuideRails.
Is the Saucony Hurricane 25 firm or soft underfoot?
Soft and bouncy. The dual-layer PWRRUN PB on top of PWRRUN delivers a plush, responsive feel; the v25 is notably softer than the v24. Energy return is good for the stability category. The CenterPath geometry guides the gait without making the ride feel firm or corrective.
Is the Saucony Hurricane 25 good for walking?
Yes, the Hurricane 25 is well-suited to walking and long days on your feet. The dual-layer foam reads plush at slow loading rates, and the frame-based CenterPath stability provides a steady feel for tired feet. At 10 oz it's heavier than a dedicated walking shoe, but the cushion and stability make it work for all-day-on-feet use.
Is the Saucony Hurricane 25 good for wide feet?
Yes. Available in Standard (D) and Wide (2E) for men's, which is more width range than many premium stability trainers offer. The new engineered mesh upper has natural give and accommodates higher-volume feet. Runners with extra-wide forefeet who need 4E should look at the Saucony Echelon 10 instead.
