ENCORE PERFORMANCE: JAZZ PLUS.
Saucony continues the quality, craftsmanship and innovation of the Jazz with the Jazz Plus.
Another Saucony first: the biomechanically designed Deceleration Plug. An asymetrical wedge that works during the deceleration phase of a step; enhancing natural pronation and stabilizing rear and mid-foot stride.
Jazz Plus upper utilizes 400 denier nylon mesh for evaporation and new split tip pattern for flexibility. Jazz Plus also features the revolu-tionary Magic outersole of "Indy 500" rubber and diamond shaped stud design. The diamond pattern provides cushioning and shock absorption; center plug in each diamond stabilizes impact.
Jazz Plus from Saucony . . . and Lady Jazz Plus. Listen to your feet. Try on a pair. At better running shops and sporting goods dealers everywhere.
