Product Information

Full details

The Saucony Trainer 80 is designed for adults seeking a blend of retro running shoe aesthetics and modern comfort for everyday wear. Its key benefit is the combination of heritage design with responsive cushioning. A potential caveat is its focus on style over high-performance athletic needs for elite runners. This shoe faithfully reimagines a 1978 original, featuring high-density EVA foam for a softer, more responsive feel, and offers a street-ready look in vibrant colorways.

FAQs

Are the Saucony Trainer 80 suitable for running marathons?

The Trainer 80 is designed primarily as a lifestyle shoe with heritage running aesthetics. While comfortable for everyday wear and light activity, it may not provide the specialized support and cushioning required for intense, long-distance running like marathons.

How do I clean the Trainer 80s?

Gently wipe the exterior with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and machine washing. Allow them to air dry naturally away from heat sources.

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

High-density EVA foam offers a balance of cushioning and responsiveness. It provides a softer feel than traditional materials while still offering support and energy return for a comfortable stride during daily activities.

What is the main difference between this retro model and modern trainers?

This model faithfully reproduces the original 1978 design, focusing on heritage style and the specific cushioning technology of that era. Modern trainers often incorporate more advanced, specialized materials and designs for specific athletic performance needs.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The Trainer 80 is not designed for wet weather conditions. While they can handle light splashes, prolonged exposure to water may damage the materials and affect comfort. It's best to wear them in dry conditions or use water-repellent sprays if needed.

What sizes are available?

The Saucony Trainer 80 is available in various adult UK sizes. Please refer to the product listing for the specific size range available for this colorway.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect

Ensure you have ordered the correct UK size. Consult the Saucony sizing chart for accurate measurements. If the fit is still uncomfortable, consider exchanging for a different size.

Cushioning feels too firm

The high-density EVA foam may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially to allow them to mold to your feet.

Color appears different than expected

Screen settings and lighting can affect color perception. If the color is significantly different, review the product images and description carefully or contact customer support.

Materials show wear quickly

Inspect for signs of excessive abrasion or improper cleaning. Ensure the shoes are used for their intended purpose (lifestyle, light activity) and cared for according to the instructions.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the materials.
