FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Ride Millennium are designed primarily for everyday style and comfort, inspired by running shoe aesthetics. While they offer good cushioning for casual wear and walking, they are not specialized for high-performance running.

How do I determine the correct size?

It is recommended to check the Saucony size chart provided on the retailer's website, comparing your foot measurements to the UK sizing. Many users find it helpful to try them on if possible, as sizing can vary between brands.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap for specific areas is the preferred method to maintain the integrity of the materials, especially the leather overlays and mesh.

What is the main benefit of the Grid technology?

The Grid technology is designed to provide consistent cushioning and stability underfoot, offering superior comfort during extended periods of wear and walking.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the trainers feature a mesh upper and are not designed to be waterproof. They offer breathability but will not protect your feet in wet conditions.

What does 'Y2K Flair' mean in the description?

'Y2K Flair' refers to the style and design elements popular around the year 2000, characterized by retro tech aesthetics, specific color palettes, and iconic shapes, which this shoe emulates.

Troubleshooting

Tight fit or discomfort

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Consider wearing them with different types of socks. Break them in gradually with short periods of wear.

Squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the shoe components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or in the tongue area. Ensure laces are tied correctly.

Mesh upper appears dirty

Gently spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper cleaning, use a soft brush with a mixture of water and mild detergent, then wipe clean and air dry.

Reduced cushioning over time

The Grid technology is designed for durability, but cushioning can naturally reduce with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if comfort is significantly diminished after prolonged wear.
