Weight measurement and plate details
- Weight note
- Saucony launch press release lists men's 8.9oz / 252g.
- Plate note
- The exact US page, Saucony-issued release, and manufacturer SP23 catalog identify a PWRRUN PB core, PWRRUN foam support frame, XT-900, weight, drop, and stack. Complete official specifications identify no carbon structure, so carbon_plate is false. The PWRRUN Frame is a foam support structure, not a carbon plate.
