Product Information

Full details

The Saucony Trainer 80 is designed for adults seeking a blend of retro style and modern comfort for everyday wear and light athletic activities. Its key benefit is the revolutionary high-density EVA foam sole that offers a softer, more responsive feel than traditional designs. A potential caveat is that while reimagined, its heritage design might offer less specialized support than contemporary performance running shoes.

FAQs

What makes the Trainer 80 different from other trainers?

The Trainer 80's key innovation was the use of high-density EVA foam directly integrated with the upper, providing a softer and more responsive feel than footwear using traditional construction methods of its era.

Are these shoes suitable for serious running?

The Trainer 80 is best suited for casual wear, walking, and light athletic activities. For high-intensity or long-distance running, specialized performance running shoes may offer more appropriate support and features.

How do I clean the purple and orange colorway?

Use a damp cloth with mild soap to clean the exterior. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Ensure they air dry completely away from direct heat.

What size should I get?

Refer to the size chart and consider your usual shoe size. Since these are unisex trainers, the UK sizing provided is standard.

What is the primary material used?

The midsole features high-density EVA foam, and the upper is constructed with materials typical for heritage trainers, offering a balance of durability and comfort.

Can I wear these with athletic socks?

Yes, athletic socks are recommended for comfort and to prevent rubbing, especially during longer wear periods or light activities.

Troubleshooting

Slightly tight fit initially

New shoes can take a few wears to break in. Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing duration.

Discoloration on fabric

For light stains, try a gentle cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

The EVA foam may compress slightly with heavy use. For optimal comfort, consider rotating with other footwear for daily wear.

Pros and Cons

Cons
