Can I go straight from the Saucony Hurricane 23 to the Hurricane 25 and skip the Hurricane 24?

Yes, but going Hurricane 23 to Hurricane 25 means taking one change in a single step: the Hurricane 24 is where the ride moved. The drop also goes 8 mm to 6 mm across the jump, so give it a week of easy running.

How much did the weight change across these two updates?

1.4 oz off in total, 11.4 oz to 10 oz in a men's US 9. The Hurricane 24 took it to 10.6 oz first.

Is the Hurricane 24 the better buy than either of these?

On paper it splits them: 10.6 oz against 11.4 oz for the Hurricane 23 and 10 oz for the Hurricane 25, on a 38 mm heel and a $160 list price. Whether that is worth chasing depends on what the Hurricane 24 update actually did, which the section above works through.

Did the Hurricane get taller between the Hurricane 23 and the Hurricane 25?

Heel stack went 33.5 mm to 38 mm, by way of 38 mm on the Hurricane 24. Drop moved 8 mm to 6 mm, which is the change your calves and Achilles notice.

Where does the Hurricane 25 sit in the Hurricane lineup now?

Two versions on from the Hurricane 23, and already replaced itself: the Hurricane 26 arrived in 2026. If you are shopping old stock anyway, price the Hurricane 25 against it before deciding.

Or buy the Hurricane 24 instead?

The Hurricane 24 is worth a look only if you want the ride it introduced, because that is the update that changed the shoe. Buying it to soften the jump does not work: you would be adapting to the same change either way, just at an older spec.
