FAQs
What is Grid Technology?
Grid Technology in Saucony shoes is a cushioning system designed to provide shock absorption and stability by evenly distributing impact forces throughout the midsole.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The ProGrid Omni 9 is designed with a standard fit. While the lacing system allows for some adjustment, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them snug. Checking size guides and trying them on is recommended.
Can I wear these for long-distance running?
Yes, the combination of cushioning and stability makes them suitable for moderate long-distance running on roads. For ultra-marathon distances, consider specialized long-distance models.
How do the rubberized cage overlays enhance the shoe?
The rubberized cage overlays provide structural support and durability, helping to lock the foot in place for increased stability during movement.
What is the main difference between the original ProGrid Omni 9 and this reissue?
The reissue maintains the original silhouette and core technologies while updating materials and construction for modern comfort and performance standards.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Gently clean the mesh upper with a soft brush or a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or submerging the shoes in water.
Troubleshooting
Laces are difficult to tighten evenly.
Ensure the lacing pattern is consistent. Try re-lacing the shoe, paying attention to equal tension on each side as you go.
Feet feel too warm during wear.
This could be due to high temperatures or prolonged activity. Ensure socks are made of moisture-wicking material. The open mesh design promotes breathability, but extreme conditions may still lead to warmth.
Reduced cushioning effect over time.
The Grid Technology is designed for durability, but cushioning can naturally degrade with extensive use. Consider replacing the trainers if they have been heavily used for over 300-500 miles or if the cushioning feels significantly diminished.
