A lightweight and responsive racing shoe that is perfect for neutral runners looking to transition into competitive races, the Saucony Type A6 is designed to break records, crush PBs, and help you achieve your personal best times.

Constructed with a 4mm offset and weighing just 147 grams, the Type A6 is one of the lightest racing flats ever made by Saucony. It offers runners an incredibly natural fit and barefoot-like sensation with breath-taking speed for distances of 5K and above.

The upper of the shoe consists of two separate layers that are bonded together to form a seamless, monolithic shell. On the inside, there is a layer of open mesh for breathability and comfort, while the outer layer utilizes a flexible skeleton frame, known as Flexfilm, for exceptional lightweight support.

But what's most impressive about the A6 is how Saucony managed to enhance the outsole without adding any extra weight to the shoe itself. In fact, despite incorporating a Blown Rubber outsole, the A6 somehow manages to reduce the weight compared to the A5 by nearly 20 grams.

Equally important, however, is the Injection Blown Rubber Compound itself, which provides improved performance and responsiveness despite being 33% lighter than typical rubber compounds. The XT-900 outsole pattern also provides ample grip in wet and dry conditions.
