There are several ways in which a shoe may provide support in a lightweight package. An ortholite insole provides additional cushioning as well as offering some odor fighting properties. The fit is excellent overall with a medium heel which leads to a snug mid foot and wider toe box than most racing flats, and while the mesh is highly flexible the Fastwitch upper never felt sloppy, even on trails. As mentioned previously, the Fastwitch 6 runs a half size small and even in very lightweight racing socks I felt that I needed to size up. Saucony updated the upper of the Fastwitch by adding welded on overlays and reducing the overall amount of fabric adding structure over the very lightweight dual density mesh. The shoes felt very lightweight and agile and I was surprised at how roomy the toe box was. When I first put on the Fastwitch 6 I was surprised by the sizing as I normally wear a 9.5US in Saucony shoes and a size 10 felt perfect for a racing flat. The Fastwitch 6 updates the somewhat dated upper construction of the Fastwitch 5 by adding welded on overlays and lightening up the shoe 0.3 ounces.
