Product Information

Full details

The Saucony Trainer 80 in grey is designed for adults seeking a blend of heritage running technology and modern street style. Its key benefit is the all-day comfort provided by the full-length EVA midsole, combined with a breathable mesh and suede upper. A potential consideration is that while faithfully reimagined, they retain a classic silhouette that may not suit those seeking the latest in athletic footwear trends.

FAQs

Are the Saucony Trainer 80 suitable for running?

While the Trainer 80 originated from running technology, its modern reimagining is best suited for casual wear, walking, and daily activities. For high-performance running, Saucony offers dedicated running shoe lines.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the Saucony sizing chart available online or consult the size guide provided with the product listing. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the chart for the best fit.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The uppers are constructed using a combination of breathable mesh and durable suede, offering both ventilation and a premium aesthetic.

How often should I clean my Trainer 80s?

Clean your trainers as needed based on wear and visible dirt. Regular spot cleaning and occasional deeper cleaning will help maintain their condition.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, particularly the suede and EVA midsole, and compromise the shoe's structure.

What is the warranty period for Saucony footwear?

Warranty information can vary. Please check the official Saucony website or the product packaging for specific warranty details applicable to your purchase.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thinner socks initially. If still tight, consider using a shoe stretcher for suede areas or ensure you have the correct size. Consult sizing charts before purchase.

Suede looks dull or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stains, consult specific suede cleaning guides for appropriate methods.

Outsole grip is reduced

Ensure the outsole is clean from mud, debris, or slippery substances. Minor wear on the tread is normal; if significant damage is present, consult product warranty.

Laces fraying

Replace laces with a similar style and length. This is a standard maintenance item.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Saucony Trainer 80 requires no specific setup; they are ready to wear straight out of the box.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult use and are compatible with standard sock wear. Their versatile design makes them suitable for pairing with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, shorts, and athleisure wear.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Trainer 80s:

  1. Cleaning Uppers: For the suede areas, use a suede brush or a dry cloth to remove loose dirt. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by air drying. Avoid soaking the suede.
  2. Mesh Areas: Gently wipe mesh panels with a damp cloth. Mild soap can be used for tougher grime, but ensure it's rinsed thoroughly.
  3. Midsole and Outsole: Clean the EVA midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  4. Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
