Saucony now markets the Freedom 4 as a trainer for the gym, running and all-day casual wear. The insole has “8mm offset” printed on it but it was probably borrowed from a different Saucony shoe. The Freedom 4 gains 0.5mm in stack height but weighs exactly the same as the Freedom 3. ![]() The Freedom 4 is now the only Saucony running shoe that utilises the PWRRUN PB super foam without a plate. This year’s Freedom has been updated with PWRRUN PB, a PEBA midsole foam which is the same high-end foam found in the Endorphin Speed and Pro. It also still used Pwrrun+, Saucony’s TPU midsole foam. It was no longer Saucony’s premium, top of the range performance trainer. Last year, when the brand new Endorphin series was introduced, the Freedom became an afterthought. It also came out in bright, parrot-like colourways that stood out on the roads. ![]() There was nothing else like it at the time because it was so versatile and light. I can remember running in the first version of the Freedom: it was flexible, lively and fun. It was one of the only Saucony shoes to feature a full-length Everrun midsole which, at the time, was Saucony’s premium, top of the range midsole foam.
