FAQs
Are the Saucony Peregrine 16 suitable for hiking?
Yes, the Peregrine 16 is designed for trail running and hiking, offering excellent grip and comfort on various terrains.
How do I clean the water-repellent treatment?
The water-repellent treatment is part of the shoe's material. Regular cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap, followed by air drying, will help maintain the shoe's overall condition. Avoid harsh chemicals that can degrade the treatment.
What is the main difference in cushioning from previous models?
The Peregrine 16 features an increase in PWRRUN foam underfoot, providing enhanced cushioning and comfort compared to earlier versions.
Can I use these shoes for road running?
While possible, these shoes are optimized for trail running. Using them extensively on hard road surfaces may lead to premature wear of the outsole tread and may not provide the optimal cushioning or feel for road running.
What type of support do these shoes offer?
The Saucony Peregrine 16 offers neutral support, meaning they are designed to provide a balanced cushion under the foot without additional stability features for overpronation.
How durable is the Vibram Megagrip outsole?
Vibram Megagrip is known for its durability and excellent grip. However, the lifespan of the outsole will depend on the frequency of use, terrain type, and running style.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing thicker or thinner socks to adjust the fit. The lacing system can be adjusted to relieve pressure points. The shoes may also require a short break-in period.
Traction is reduced on certain surfaces
Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove embedded mud or debris. For extremely slick surfaces, proceed with caution, as even advanced grip technology has limitations.
Feet feel wet after a run
While water-repellent, the shoes are not fully waterproof. For very wet conditions, consider waterproof socks or be aware that prolonged exposure to water will eventually saturate the shoe.
Outsole is showing signs of wear
Normal wear and tear on the outsole is expected with trail running. Ensure you are not using the shoes on abrasive surfaces like asphalt for extended periods, which can accelerate wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Saucony Peregrine 16 is ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for a comfortable fit; there should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The lacing system allows for a customized, secure fit.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed for men and are suitable for adult runners and hikers. They are ideal for neutral runners and perform best on varied trail surfaces.
Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Peregrine 16 shoes:
- Cleaning: Remove excess dirt and mud with a soft brush or a damp cloth after each use. For deeper cleaning, hand wash with cold water and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and water-repellent treatment.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or prolonged sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during the drying process.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing them in plastic bags or airtight containers, which can trap moisture.
