Which is lighter, the Saucony Guide 14 or the Guide 15?

The Guide 15, by 1 oz in a men's US 9 (9.5 oz vs 10.5 oz).

Did the price change between the Saucony Guide 14 and the Guide 15?

Yes. List price went up $10, from $130 to $140. Street prices differ: the older shoe usually sells under list once its successor ships.

Do the Saucony Guide 14 and Guide 15 come in the same widths?

Yes. Both run in D, 2E for men's sizes, so a width that fit in the Guide 14 carries over to the Guide 15.

How do the stack heights compare?

32.5 mm heel and 24.5 mm forefoot on the Saucony Guide 14, against 35 mm and 27 mm on the Guide 15. That is 2.5 mm more under the heel and 2.5 mm more under the forefoot. See the stack height note in the table above: the published figures changed convention mid-lineage.

Is the Guide 15 still the newest Guide?

No. The Guide 16 replaced it in 2023, so the Guide 15 now sells as an older model and usually below its $140 list price.
