FAQs
Is the Saucony Guide TR GTX fully waterproof?
Yes, it features a Gore-Tex (GTX) membrane designed to keep water out while allowing moisture vapor to escape.
Can I use these for road running?
Absolutely. The Guide TR GTX is designed as a versatile trainer and performs well on road surfaces as well as light trails.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Generally, high-performance trainers should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your weight, running style, and terrain.
Are these shoes suitable for orthotics?
Yes, the provided insole is removable, allowing you to insert custom or medical-grade orthotics if needed.
How do I maintain the Gore-Tex membrane?
Keep the shoes clean from mud and dirt. Avoid harsh detergents and never use a tumble dryer, which can damage the membrane.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort in the arch area
Ensure the shoe is correctly laced and check if your foot requires an aftermarket orthotic insole for extra support.
Waterproofing seems less effective over time
Clean the outer mesh of dirt and debris that might be clogging the fabric pores; re-apply a DWR spray if necessary.
Excessive heel slippage
Utilize the 'runner's loop' or heel-lock lacing method to secure the ankle collar firmly.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent weather resistance thanks to GTX lining
- High level of stability for overpronators or those needing extra support
- Rugged outsole provides reliable traction on varied terrain
- Durable build quality suitable for daily training
- Balanced cushioning for long-lasting comfort
Cons
- The waterproof membrane may reduce breathability in extreme heat
- Slightly heavier than standard non-waterproof racing shoes
- May require a short break-in period to optimize the support structure
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, ensure you have the correct size and lace the shoes with moderate tension across the midfoot to leverage the support features. Compatibility is broad, as these function well for both walking and running. To care for your trainers, avoid machine washing or direct heat drying, as this can degrade the Gore-Tex membrane. Instead, clean the exterior with a soft brush and warm water. If the interior gets wet, remove the insole and stuff the shoe with newspaper or a drying cloth, allowing it to air dry in a well-ventilated room away from direct sunlight.
