Product Information
Full details
The Saucony Trainer 80 is a unisex adult trainer designed for everyday wear, blending retro aesthetics with modern comfort. It appeals to those seeking a stylish, comfortable shoe with a rich heritage. A potential caveat is that while it excels in casual comfort, it is not designed for high-performance athletic training. Key features include its high-density EVA foam for responsive cushioning, a deconstructed sole for a softer feel, and a durable construction that honors its 1978 origins.

FAQs
Are the Saucony Trainer 80 suitable for running marathons?
No, the Trainer 80 is designed as a lifestyle and casual trainer, focusing on comfort for everyday wear. It is not engineered with the specific support and cushioning required for high-performance marathon running.
How do I clean the purple and orange colorway?
Use a damp cloth with mild soap to gently clean the exterior. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the colors or fabric. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.
What does 'deconstructed sole design' mean for comfort?
It means the traditional, stiffer layer between the sole and upper has been removed or minimized. This results in a more flexible, softer feel underfoot with each step.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
The Trainer 80 offers limited protection against wet conditions. While they can handle light moisture, they are not waterproof and prolonged exposure to rain may saturate the materials.
Is this shoe suitable for wide feet?
The Trainer 80 is typically offered in a standard width. If you have wide feet, it's advisable to try them on or check reviews regarding their fit for wider feet. Some users find they can stretch slightly with wear.
What is the main difference between the original Trainer 80 and this reissue?
The reissue faithfully recreates the original's design and core technology, like the EVA foam and deconstructed sole, but is made with modern manufacturing techniques and materials. It also features updated colorways for contemporary style.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the width should allow your foot to sit comfortably without pressure points.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try wearing them with different types of socks. Break them in gradually by wearing them for short periods initially.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The rubber outsole is designed for general traction. For very slick surfaces, exercise caution. Ensure the soles are clean, as dirt or debris can affect grip.
Discoloration or marks on the upper
Use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently clean the affected area. For stubborn marks, consider a specialized shoe cleaner suitable for the material. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Reduced cushioning over time
While EVA foam is durable, its responsiveness can decrease with extensive use. Regular cleaning and proper storage can help prolong its effectiveness. For significantly worn cushioning, replacement may be considered.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions: To maintain the Trainer 80's appearance and performance:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Lining: If the insoles are removable, take them out and air them regularly. Hand wash them with mild soap and water if necessary, and ensure they are completely dry before reinserting.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent damage.
