CUSHIONING GEOMETRY
Heel stack28 mm31 mm
Do not trust this chip: it is the clearest phantom in the line. Saucony quoted plus 3 mm at both ends, and RunRepeat's calipers found the heel unchanged from the 13, 27.5 to 27.3 mm, the forefoot up about 1.5, and the measured drop down to 2.2 mm. The marketed jump mostly did not happen in physical foam.

OTHER CHANGES
OutsolePWRTRAC, recut 5 mm patternPWRTRAC, harder compound
RunRepeat's durometer read the rubber at 92.4 HC against the 13's 85.5, and this is where the ride actually changed: firmer ground contact, wet-rock complaints, and the heel section whose splitting became this generation's QC story.
DurabilitySole splitting and stretchy laces, scatteredHeel rubber splitting inside 100 km, the line's one warranty cluster
The defining report: a pair whose heel rubber failed at just over 100 km, replaced under warranty, and the replacement pair did the same thing at 90. Lug tear-off recurs across owner reviews. A bonding QC problem rather than a design one, since the compound itself measured harder than ever.

Weighing whether to switch at all, rather than which of these two to buy? What replaced the Saucony Peregrine 13 covers the verdict on the update, what loyalists made of it, and the closest alternatives from other brands.

Questions runners ask

Which is lighter, the Saucony Peregrine 13 or the Peregrine 14?
The Saucony Peregrine 13, by 0.2 oz in a men's US 9 (9.2 oz vs 9.4 oz).
Do the Saucony Peregrine 13 and Peregrine 14 come in the same widths?
No. The Saucony Peregrine 13 came in D; the Peregrine 14 runs in D, 2E. The Peregrine 14 added 2E.
How do the stack heights compare?
28 mm heel and 24 mm forefoot on the Saucony Peregrine 13, against 31 mm and 27 mm on the Peregrine 14. That is 3 mm more under the heel and 3 mm more under the forefoot. See the stack height note in the table above: the published figures changed convention mid-lineage.
Is the Peregrine 14 still the newest Peregrine?
No. The Peregrine 15 replaced it in 2025, so the Peregrine 14 now sells as an older model and usually below its $140 list price.
