FAQs
Are the Saucony Racer 80 trainers unisex?
Yes, these are designed as unisex trainers and fit a broad range of foot shapes.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, you should never machine wash suede shoes, as the water and agitation will destroy the suede material.
Are these suitable for long-distance running?
No, the Racer 80 is categorized as a lifestyle/casual trainer inspired by vintage racing rather than a technical performance running shoe.
Do I need to spray these with a protector?
While not strictly required, using a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray can help protect the material from the elements.
How do I determine my size?
These trainers follow standard UK adult sizing. Use your typical size for other lifestyle athletic footwear.
What is the primary material used for the upper?
The upper is constructed primarily from high-quality suede.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or worn
Use a specialized suede brush to lift the nap of the material and restore its soft texture.
Difficulty keeping laces tied
Ensure the laces are pulled through all eyelets and try a double-knot if they continue to loosen during wear.
Surface water marks on the suede
Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Never use a hairdryer or place them near a heater, as heat can warp the materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Saucony Racer 80 trainers remain in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the suede surface. Avoid saturating the suede with water as it can damage the texture.
- Stain Removal: For minor marks, use a dedicated suede eraser or a light application of a suede-safe cleaning solution.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the suede.
- Fit: These are standard adult unisex sizes. If you are transitioning between brands, it is recommended to use your standard UK sizing for the most accurate fit.
