Saucony Hurricane 26

The 2026 Hurricane continues the formula of a soft PWRRUN PB core inside a supportive frame with CenterPath guidance. It's Saucony's flagship stability trainer for runners who want maximum cushion and structure in one shoe. Released mid-2026 as an incremental refinement of the Hurricane 25.

Who it's for

Reach for the Saucony Hurricane 26 for everyday training miles, long runs and easy recovery days. It has real support built in, so it suits runners who overpronate or like a locked-in, guided ride. The tall, soft stack favors comfort over ground feel — great for high mileage and bigger runners, less so for racing snappiness.
