FAQs

What makes the Trainer 80 different from other running shoes?

The Trainer 80 stands out with its historical significance, featuring the original high-density EVA foam cushioning that revolutionized running shoes in 1978. It balances this retro innovation with a modern, street-style aesthetic.

Are these shoes suitable for serious running?

The Trainer 80 is best suited for casual wear, walking, and light training. For high-mileage running or competitive events, consider Saucony's specialized performance running shoe lines.

How do I clean the Trainer 80 shoes?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the uppers. For tougher spots, a mild soap solution can be applied carefully. Always air dry.

What is the warranty period for Saucony shoes?

Saucony typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the official Saucony website or your point of purchase for specific warranty details.

Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?

While the materials offer some protection, the Trainer 80 is not designed as waterproof footwear. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet environments to preserve the materials.

What does 'high-density EVA foam' mean for comfort?

High-density EVA foam provides a firm yet cushioned feel, offering excellent shock absorption and energy return. This makes the shoe comfortable for extended wear and reduces impact on your joints.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing system to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size; refer to sizing charts if unsure.

Slight discomfort during initial wear

This is common with new shoes. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Soles appear worn after moderate use

The EVA foam is designed for comfort and responsiveness, which can show some compression over time. This is normal wear. For extended durability, avoid excessive use on rough terrain.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning and responsiveness from the EVA foam.
  • Authentic retro design with modern comfort.
  • Versatile for both casual wear and light athletic activities.
  • Durable construction for long-lasting use.
  • Available in appealing color combinations.

Cons

  • Retro aesthetic may not appeal to everyone.
  • May not offer the advanced technical features of newer, specialized running shoes.
  • Sizing may vary; trying them on is recommended if possible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Saucony Trainer 80 requires no specific setup. Upon receiving the shoes, ensure they fit comfortably.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult unisex use and are compatible with most casual attire. They are suitable for walking, light training, and everyday wear.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Trainer 80s:

  1. Cleaning: Gently clean the uppers with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
