Product Information

Full details

The Saucony Trainer 80 is a faithful reproduction of a 1978 running shoe, ideal for adults seeking a blend of retro style and modern comfort for everyday wear. Its key benefit is the revolutionary high-density EVA foam midsole, offering a softer, more responsive feel than its predecessors. A potential caveat for serious runners is that its design is a heritage reproduction, prioritizing style and casual comfort over advanced performance features.

FAQs

Are the Saucony Trainer 80 suitable for actual running?

The Trainer 80 is a heritage reproduction designed primarily for style and casual comfort. While they offer responsive cushioning, they may not provide the advanced support or specialized features required for intense or long-distance running compared to modern performance running shoes.

How do I clean the Trainer 80s?

Spot clean with a mild detergent and a damp cloth or a soft brush. For stubborn dirt, use a specialized sneaker cleaner. Always allow them to air dry naturally and away from direct heat.

What does 'EVA foam' mean?

EVA (Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate) foam is a type of cushioning material commonly used in athletic footwear. In the Trainer 80, the high-density EVA foam provides a balance of softness, responsiveness, and durability.

Are these shoes unisex?

Yes, the Trainer 80 is designed as a unisex model, suitable for adults of any gender.

How does the sizing compare to other Saucony shoes?

As a faithful reproduction of a 1978 model, the sizing might slightly differ from Saucony's modern performance lines. It's recommended to consult the brand's official sizing guide and check customer reviews for fit information.

What is the main difference between the original Trainer 80 and this reproduction?

This reproduction faithfully recreates the original's design and key cushioning technology (high-density EVA foam). The main difference is its availability today with modern manufacturing standards and updated colorways, while retaining the original's spirit and comfort innovations.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Consider using thicker or thinner socks to slightly adjust the fit. Refer to Saucony's sizing chart for accurate measurements.

Slight discomfort on first wear

New shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration. The EVA foam will adapt to your foot's shape over time.

Creasing on the upper material

Some creasing is natural with leather or synthetic uppers, especially during the break-in period. Avoid bending the shoe excessively when not wearing it.
