Questions runners ask

Which is lighter, the Saucony Hurricane 22 or the Hurricane 23?
The Hurricane 23, by 0.2 oz in a men's US 9 (11.4 oz vs 11.6 oz).
Do the Saucony Hurricane 22 and Hurricane 23 come in the same widths?
Yes. Both run in D, 2E for men's sizes, so a width that fit in the Hurricane 22 carries over to the Hurricane 23.
How do the stack heights compare?
32 mm heel and 24 mm forefoot on the Saucony Hurricane 22, against 33.5 mm and 25.5 mm on the Hurricane 23. That is 1.5 mm more under the heel and 1.5 mm more under the forefoot. See the stack height note in the table above: the published figures changed convention mid-lineage.
Is the Hurricane 23 still the newest Hurricane?
No. The Hurricane 24 replaced it in 2024, so the Hurricane 23 now sells as an older model and usually below its $160 list price.
