FAQs

Are these suitable for serious running?

The Shadow 6000 are inspired by high-mileage running shoes and offer good cushioning for light to moderate running. For high-intensity training or marathon running, consider Saucony's performance-specific running shoe lines.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the product's size chart or compare with a known pair of Saucony shoes. The Shadow 6000 generally follows standard UK sizing for trainers.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

While the suede and leather offer some protection, they are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. If they get wet, allow them to dry naturally and consider using a suede protector spray.

What is the difference between the suede and leather versions?

The primary difference is the upper material. Suede versions offer a softer, more casual look, while leather versions tend to be more durable and slightly more formal in appearance, though both share the same core cushioning and sole technology.

Do these trainers offer arch support?

The Shadow 6000 provides balanced cushioning and a structured feel due to its EVA midsole and sock liner, offering moderate support suitable for many users. For specific high-arch needs, orthotic insoles can be added.

How do I clean the white and grey colorway?

For the white and grey suede/leather, use a suede brush for general cleaning. For tougher spots, use a specialized suede cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals that could discolor the materials.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try wearing thicker socks or apply a small amount of talcum powder under the insole.

Uneven wear on the outsole

Ensure you are using the shoes for their intended purpose (walking, light running). Check for any objects lodged in the tread. Significant uneven wear might indicate a need for replacement if impacting performance.

Suede appearing matted or dirty

Use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For persistent stains, consult a specialist cleaner or use a suede eraser.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Saucony Shadow 6000 trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: These trainers are unisex and designed for adult foot sizes. They are compatible with standard athletic socks.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of the suede and leather materials:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove dirt and debris from the suede. For stains on leather or suede, use a specialized suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Protection: Apply a suede protector spray to guard against water and stains.
  3. Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the materials.
