The Grivet Take
The Peregrine 15 is older Saucony stock, the predecessor to the current Peregrine 16 in Saucony's all-mountain trail trainer line. 28/24 stack with a 4mm drop, PWRRUN midsole, PWRTRAC outsole with 5mm lugs, integrated rock plate. Best for technical trail, mud, wet conditions, and runners wanting an aggressive trail shoe at closeout pricing. Skip it for max-cushion long days; the Peregrine prioritizes agility and grip over plush comfort.

Support

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.

How it fits
Fits true to size with a standard Saucony last. Toe box runs standard width with normal vertical room. Midfoot is secure; heel hold is excellent. Available in Standard (B) only for women's.
How it feels
Cushion is moderate; PWRRUN midsole reads firm and trail-appropriate. The 4mm drop and stable platform feel agile on technical climbs and descents. PWRTRAC outsole with 5mm lugs grips reliably on dirt, mud, wet rocks, and loose terrain.

PWRTRAC outsole with 5mm lugs is Saucony's trail-rubber compound, designed for grip on wet rocks, mud, and loose surfaces.
Integrated rock plate provides protection from sharp rocks and roots.
