Ride 16

Daily TrainerRelease date 2023-04-04CA

Ride 16 is a neutral daily trainer for routine road miles. Its PWRRUN midsole and PWRRUN+ sockliner provide balanced cushioning, while higher sidewalls let the foot sit into the shoe for a smooth heel-to-toe transition. Compared with Ride 15, the upper gets fit-focused changes: breathable mesh, a midfoot gilley lacing loop and a semi-gusseted tongue. The cushioned platform stays familiar for everyday runs.

Weight measurement and plate details
Weight note
Direct men's single-shoe weight from the manufacturer-provided SP23 catalog. It differs by 1g from converting the authorized retailer's rounded 8.8oz value, so the directly stated 250g is preferred.
Plate note
The exact Saucony Australia page and the bounded Ride 16 section of the manufacturer-provided SP23 catalog identify PWRRUN, a PWRRUN+ sockliner, weight, drop, and stack, with no carbon structure. The same catalog explicitly labels plates on plated models. Carbon_plate is therefore false.
