Product Information
Full details
The Saucony Racer 80 is a unisex trainer designed for individuals who appreciate a blend of retro aesthetics and modern everyday comfort. Drawing direct inspiration from the brand's heritage racing era of the '70s and '80s, this shoe offers a stylish, versatile look suitable for casual daily wear, though it is primarily a lifestyle sneaker rather than a dedicated performance athletic shoe.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, while they are inspired by heritage runners, they are designed as casual lifestyle trainers and lack the modern cushioning and support required for long-distance or high-intensity running.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
We strongly recommend against machine washing, as the heat and water can permanently damage the suede material and affect the shoe's structure.
Are these true to size?
The Racer 80 generally fits true to your standard UK size. If you are between sizes, consider your preference for a snug or slightly roomier fit.
How do I protect the suede from water?
Apply a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for suede before your first wear, and reapply periodically.
Is the sole non-marking?
The rubber outsole is durable and generally suitable for indoor and outdoor use; however, always test on surfaces if you are concerned about marks.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or flat
Use a suede brush or a clean, dry toothbrush to gently brush the nap of the material in one direction to restore its texture.
Surface stains on the suede
Use a specialized suede eraser or a small amount of white vinegar on a soft cloth to gently dab the area, then allow it to air dry away from heat sources.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you receive your pair, ensure the size corresponds to your standard UK fit as these follow traditional sizing. Because the uppers are primarily constructed from suede, it is essential to keep them dry and away from harsh weather conditions to prevent water staining. If the shoes become dirty, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust. For deeper cleaning, utilize a specialized suede cleaner and protector spray to maintain the material's texture and appearance. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this will damage the suede fibers and the integrity of the adhesive.
