FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Triumph 23 GTX is a neutral shoe with a standard width. While it offers a comfortable fit for many, individuals with significantly wide feet might find other models more accommodating. It's recommended to try them on if possible.

How do I clean the GORE-TEX material?

Use a damp cloth to wipe down the exterior. Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from heat.

What is the main difference between the Triumph 23 and the Triumph 23 GTX?

The primary difference is the addition of the GORE-TEX Invisible Fit membrane in the GTX version, providing enhanced waterproof and breathable properties for all-weather running, while the standard Triumph 23 focuses solely on breathability and lighter weight.

Can I use these for trail running?

Yes, the XT-900 outsole provides durable, flexible traction suitable for various surfaces, including light to moderate trails. For very technical or muddy terrain, specialized trail shoes might offer superior grip.

What is the expected lifespan of these shoes?

For most runners, the durable construction and cushioning should last between 300-500 miles (480-800 km). This can vary depending on running surface, frequency, distance, and individual biomechanics.

Are these shoes vegan?

Yes, the Saucony Triumph 23 GTX is made with vegan materials.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The heel-to-toe drop is 10mm, with a heel height of 37mm and a forefoot height of 27mm.

Troubleshooting

Feet feel damp despite waterproofing

Ensure the GORE-TEX membrane is intact and not compromised. Check that laces are not overly loose, which can allow water ingress. Internal moisture from sweat can also contribute; ensure socks are moisture-wicking.

Reduced traction on wet surfaces

Inspect the XT-900 outsole for excessive wear or debris lodged in the tread. Clean the outsole. If significantly worn, consider replacement.

Discomfort during runs

Verify the shoe size and fit. Ensure socks are appropriate. Break in the shoes gradually on shorter runs if they are new. Consider if the shoe's neutral support is suitable for your gait.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: No specific setup is required. These are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal performance and comfort.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for running on roads, trails, and various urban surfaces. The neutral design is compatible with most running gaits.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Gently clean the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  2. Waterproofing Care: The GORE-TEX membrane is designed for durability. Avoid using waterproofing sprays not specifically recommended for GORE-TEX materials, as they could compromise breathability.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
