FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While originally designed as performance trainers in 2010, the current model is primarily categorized as a lifestyle shoe. It is better suited for walking and daily wear than modern long-distance running.
How does the sizing run?
The ProGrid Omni 9 follows standard UK sizing. If you have worn Saucony trainers in the past, your usual size should be accurate.
Is this a unisex model?
Yes, this model is designed to be unisex, making it suitable for both men and women, provided you select the appropriate UK size.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to swap them for custom orthotics if you require extra arch support.
How do I keep the white sections clean?
Use a dedicated sneaker cleaning solution or a mild soap-and-water mix with a soft cloth. Treat stains immediately to prevent them from setting into the fabric.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels too stiff out of the box
The ProGrid Omni 9 uses a structured design; wear them for short periods over 3-4 days to allow the materials to break in naturally to your foot shape.
Dirt buildup in the mesh components
Use a soft toothbrush to gently dislodge debris from the mesh weave. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could discolor the black and white materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Saucony ProGrid Omni 9 lasts as long as possible, proper care is essential.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the outsole. For the upper, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap; do not submerge the shoes or machine wash them.
- Drying: Always air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials or damage the glue.
- Compatibility: These trainers feature a neutral, classic profile that pairs well with denim, track pants, or casual chinos. Ensure you select your standard UK sizing, as the fit follows traditional athletic sizing guidelines.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material degradation over time.
