Product Information

Full details

The Saucony Trainer 80 is designed for adults seeking a blend of retro athletic heritage and modern street style. Its key benefit is the comfortable, responsive feel derived from early EVA foam technology, updated for contemporary wear. A potential caveat is that while inspired by a running shoe, it is now primarily a lifestyle or casual trainer, not for high-performance running.

FAQs

Are the Saucony Trainer 80 suitable for running?

While inspired by a running shoe, the modern reissue is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. They offer comfort for walking but are not recommended for high-performance running.

What makes the EVA foam special in these trainers?

The high-density EVA foam provides a softer and more responsive cushioning than older shoe technologies, making them comfortable for everyday use.

How should I clean my Trainer 80s?

Clean gently with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the shoes.

Can I wear these with athletic socks?

Yes, they are compatible with all types of socks, including athletic socks, for comfortable daily wear.

What is the main advantage of the Trainer 80's design?

The primary advantage is the blend of authentic retro aesthetics with modern comfort and lightweight construction, suitable for street style.

Do these trainers offer good arch support?

As a retro-inspired lifestyle shoe, they offer basic support. For specific arch support needs, consider adding insoles.

What year did the original Trainer 80 come out?

The original Saucony Trainer 80 was released in 1978.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels slightly off

Consult the Saucony sizing chart and consider trying on in-store if possible, as retro models can fit differently than modern shoes.

Sole feels stiff initially

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in. The EVA foam will soften with use.

Color transfer from shoe to socks

This can sometimes occur with new, brightly colored footwear. Wear darker socks initially or follow specific cleaning instructions for dyed materials.

Laces becoming worn

Replace laces with standard athletic shoe laces. Ensure they are the correct length for the number of eyelets.
