Product Information

Full details

The Saucony Trainer 80 is for adults seeking a blend of retro running heritage and modern street style. Its key benefit is the revolutionary high-density EVA foam offering a softer, more responsive feel than older models, making it comfortable for both casual wear and light activity. A potential caveat is that its retro design might not appeal to those preferring highly contemporary athletic aesthetics.

FAQs

Are the Saucony Trainer 80 suitable for long-distance running?

While the EVA foam provides good cushioning, the Trainer 80 is primarily designed as a retro-inspired lifestyle shoe. For dedicated long-distance running, modern performance running shoes from Saucony may offer more advanced support and technology.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by Saucony and measure your foot length. The Trainer 80 typically runs true to size, but personal preference for fit (snug vs. roomier) can influence your choice.

Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?

The Trainer 80 is not waterproof. While they can handle light splashes or damp conditions, they are not recommended for heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet environments.

What is the primary difference between the original Trainer 80 and this reissue?

The reissue faithfully brings back the original design and comfort principles, notably the high-density EVA foam, while updating materials and colorways for modern appeal and durability. The removal of the cardboard layer in the original was a key innovation for comfort, which is preserved.

How often should I clean my Trainer 80s?

Clean your shoes as needed when they appear dirty. Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth is usually sufficient for maintaining their appearance.

What is the warranty on the Saucony Trainer 80?

Please refer to the official Saucony website or the retailer's policy for specific warranty information, as it can vary by region and purchase date.

Troubleshooting

Slightly tight fit initially

The Trainer 80 may feel snug at first. Wear them for short periods to allow the material to break in and conform to your foot shape. Ensure laces are adjusted properly, not overtightened.

Reduced cushioning over time

While EVA foam is durable, its cushioning properties can diminish with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes after prolonged wear, typically after several hundred miles of running or significant daily use.

Scuff marks on the exterior

Use a mild shoe cleaner or a damp cloth with a bit of soap to gently remove scuff marks. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be carefully used on non-suede areas.
