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

The Ride 15, by 0.6 oz in a men's US 9 (8.8 oz vs 9.4 oz).

Did the price change between the Saucony Ride 14 and the Ride 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 Ride 14 and Ride 15 come in the same widths?

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

How do the stack heights compare?

28 mm heel and 20 mm forefoot on the Saucony Ride 14, against 35 mm and 27 mm on the Ride 15. That is 7 mm more under the heel and 7 mm more under the forefoot. See the stack height note in the table above: the published figures changed convention mid-lineage.

Is the Ride 15 still the newest Ride?

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

The Ride 15, by default. Amazon's Saucony Ride 14 stock is gone in both men's and women's sizes, so what follows is a record of what changed, not a choice you still have.

Ride 14 · 2021

Ride 15 · 2022

Every spec, side by side

Spec	Ride 14	Ride 15
FIT AND WEIGHT
Weight	9.4 oz	8.8 oz
	The official figures understate it; on retailer scales the 15 weighed about a full ounce less than the 14.
Widths	D, 2E	D, 2E
Upper	Softer engineered mesh with a cleaner midfoot	Engineered mesh
CUSHIONING GEOMETRY
Heel stack	28 mm	35 mm
	On paper a 7 mm jump; in practice about 3 mm of new foam. Saucony's published figures for the 13 and 14 excluded parts of the stack that the 15's numbers count, and independent measurements put the 14 around 32/24 mm.
Forefoot stack	20 mm	27 mm
Drop	8 mm	8 mm
MATERIALS
Midsole	PWRRUN foam (EVA/TPU blend)	Lighter PWRRUN foam with a PWRRUN+ sockliner
	Same foam name, new mix, with a PWRRUN+ sockliner on top and deep sidewall cutouts. This is where the Ride stopped feeling dated.
VALUE
List price at launch	$130	$140
OTHER CHANGES
Outsole	Full rubber coverage	Drastically pared back
	Where much of the weight went. Durability held up better than the sparse rubber suggests.
