Product Information
Full details
The Saucony Peregrine 16 is a versatile trail shoe designed for adult male hikers and trail runners who require a balance of high-traction stability and responsive cushioning. Featuring advanced PWRRUN foam and the legendary Vibram Megagrip outsole, it excels on technical terrain and rugged paths; however, its 4mm drop and lower stack height may require an adjustment period for those transitioning from traditional high-drop road footwear.

FAQs
Is the Peregrine 16 waterproof?
The standard Peregrine 16 is designed for breathability and drainage on the trail; it does not feature an integrated waterproof membrane.
What is the heel-to-toe drop of this shoe?
The Saucony Peregrine 16 features a 4mm drop.
Is this shoe suitable for long-distance hiking?
Yes, the combination of PWRRUN cushioning and protective stack height makes it an excellent choice for long-distance trail hiking.
Can I use these shoes on asphalt?
While they can be worn on pavement, the aggressive tread is designed specifically for trail surfaces and will wear down faster on hard, abrasive roads.
How should I clean the Vibram outsole?
Use a stiff-bristled brush and warm water to dislodge debris from the lugs after your hike.
Are these shoes for overpronation?
The Peregrine 16 is a neutral shoe and does not contain specific medial posting or structured support for overpronation.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort in the arch or calf
The 4mm drop is lower than many standard shoes. If you are not used to this, alternate these with your previous shoes for the first few weeks to allow your muscles to adapt.
Laces coming untied on the trail
Ensure you are using a double knot, or consider using a 'heel lock' lacing technique to keep your midfoot secure and prevent excessive movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, verify your sizing prior to your first trek, keeping in mind that the Peregrine 16 is designed for a performance fit.
- Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for shorter walks on varied surfaces to allow the foam and upper materials to conform to your foot shape.
- Compatibility: These shoes are optimized for neutral gaits. If you utilize custom orthotics, ensure they fit securely within the footbed.
- Cleaning: After muddy excursions, remove the insoles and allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators. Use a soft brush to remove dried dirt from the tread once it has hardened.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the cushioning foam and adhesive bonding.
