Product Information

Full details

The Saucony Trainer 80 is a retro-inspired trainer for adults seeking a blend of heritage style and modern comfort for everyday wear. Its key benefit is the revolutionary high-density EVA foam offering a softer, more responsive feel than original models. A potential caveat for performance runners is that its design prioritizes casual style and comfort over specialized athletic features.

FAQs

Are the Saucony Trainer 80 suitable for running marathons?

No, the Trainer 80 is designed for lifestyle and casual wear, not for high-performance marathon running. It lacks the specialized support and technology required for competitive long-distance running.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Saucony or the retailer. Generally, measure your foot length and compare it to the provided measurements. Ensure you are measuring at the end of the day when feet are slightly larger.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While they can handle light moisture, they are not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions for extended periods, as water can affect comfort and potentially damage the materials.

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

High-density EVA foam offers a balance of softness for immediate comfort and responsiveness for energy return with each step, making them suitable for all-day wear.

How often should I clean my Trainer 80s?

Clean your shoes as needed when they appear dirty. Regular spot cleaning will help maintain their appearance and the integrity of the materials.

What is the primary difference from the original 1978 model?

The primary difference is the integration of modern high-density EVA foam for enhanced cushioning and responsiveness, along with updated colorways. The core design and retro aesthetic are faithfully preserved.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If still tight, try wearing them for short periods to allow them to naturally mold to your feet. If they remain uncomfortable, consider if the size is correct for your foot.

Cushioning feels less responsive over time

The EVA foam is designed for durability and comfort. If responsiveness decreases significantly, it may indicate normal wear. Ensure the shoes are clean, as dirt buildup can affect feel. Avoid excessive high-impact activities that can accelerate material breakdown.

Stains on the upper material

For minor stains, use a soft brush or cloth with a small amount of mild soap and water. Gently scrub the affected area and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Always allow to air dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers excellent comfort for daily activities due to responsive cushioning.
  • Combines iconic retro styling with modern wearability.
  • Durable construction ensures longevity for everyday use.
  • Versatile color options to match diverse personal styles.
  • Lightweight design contributes to all-day comfort.

Cons

  • Not designed for high-performance athletic activities; lacks specialized support.
  • Retro aesthetic may not appeal to those seeking highly modern shoe designs.
  • Limited breathability compared to some specialized running shoes.
  • Sole may wear faster with excessive, high-impact use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Saucony Trainer 80 requires no special setup upon arrival; they are ready to wear straight out of the box. They are compatible with standard sock sizes for comfortable wear. To care for your Trainer 80s, we recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap for minor dirt. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the materials and adhesives. Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. For deeper cleaning, a specialized shoe cleaner suitable for trainers can be used according to product instructions.
