Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Saucony Guide 19 trainers, proper maintenance is essential.
- Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for short, low-intensity sessions before attempting long-distance runs to allow the foam to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Wipe away mud and debris with a damp cloth after runs. Avoid using a washing machine, as the heat and agitation can degrade the cushioning materials.
- Drying: Air dry only in a cool, shaded area. Direct sunlight or extreme heat sources like radiators can cause the materials to shrink or warp.
- Rotation: For best results, rotate these trainers with another pair of shoes to allow the foam to fully decompress between runs, extending the life of the cushioning.
