FAQs
Are the Ride Millennium trainers good for running?
The Ride Millennium trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and offer good cushioning for everyday comfort. While they can handle light jogs, they are not specialized running shoes and may lack the specific support and responsiveness needed for serious or long-distance running.
How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
For suede, use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, a suede eraser is recommended. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet, and always allow it to air dry naturally away from heat.
What does 'Y2K-inspired' mean for this design?
Y2K-inspired refers to the fashion trends prominent around the year 2000. For these trainers, it means incorporating design elements and aesthetics popular during that era, such as metallic details and a specific silhouette, updated for modern wear.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the mesh offers some breathability, the suede material is not ideal for heavy rain or wet conditions as it can stain and damage the material. It is best to wear these trainers in dry weather or protect them with a suitable waterproofing spray for suede.
What is the benefit of GRID cushioning?
GRID cushioning technology is designed to provide stability and cushioning by creating a 'grid' structure within the midsole. This helps absorb impact and distributes pressure evenly, leading to superior comfort for the wearer, especially during prolonged periods of standing or walking.
How should I choose the right size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Saucony and compare it with your foot measurements. If possible, try them on in-store as fit can vary. The provided size UK 11 is a standard adult fit, but individual foot shapes differ.
Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness upon first wear
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, consult a suede cleaner or eraser.
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size and consider wearing appropriate socks. If persistent, the shoes may not be the best fit for your foot type.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace laces with standard shoe laces of a similar length and material. New laces can also refresh the look.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Saucony Ride Millennium trainers:
- Cleaning Suede: Use a soft brush or a specialized suede eraser to remove dry dirt and stains. For tougher spots, a slightly damp cloth can be used sparingly, followed by air drying away from direct heat.
- Cleaning Mesh and Soles: Wipe down the mesh and rubber soles with a damp cloth. Mild soap can be used for stubborn dirt, but avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the materials.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent material degradation.
