FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

The Progrid Paramount trainers are designed with a lifestyle focus, reviving heritage aesthetics. While they offer comfort and cushioning, they are not optimized for high-performance running like dedicated athletic shoes. For marathon running, consider specialized performance trainers.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Saucony or the retailer. Generally, measure your foot length and compare it to the UK size equivalents. These trainers are unisex, so refer to standard unisex sizing guides.

What is the Arch Lock feature?

Arch Lock is a support system integrated into the midsole of the shoe, designed to provide a secure and supportive fit around the arch of your foot, enhancing stability.

Can these trainers be machine washed?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method to preserve the materials and structure of the shoe.

What does 'ProGrid cushioning' mean?

ProGrid is Saucony's cushioning technology that aims to provide a balance of cushioning and responsiveness, offering comfort and support during wear.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

The Progrid Paramount series is available in various colorways. Please check the product listings for available options, as specific color availability can vary.

What is the main difference between the black and black/white variants?

The difference typically lies in the color blocking or accents. The 'Black' variant is likely a monochrome design, while the 'Black/White' variant will feature contrasting white elements on a black base, such as the sole, logo, or overlays.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have the correct size. If new, wear them for short periods to allow them to break in. Consider using slightly thinner socks if necessary.

Traction feels poor on certain surfaces

Check the rubber outsole for excessive wear or embedded debris. Clean the tread pattern to restore optimal grip.

Color transfer onto socks or feet

This can occasionally happen with new footwear, especially darker colors. Washing the inside of the shoe lightly or wearing darker socks may help, and it typically diminishes with wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Progrid Paramount trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for unisex adult use and are compatible with a wide range of casual attire.

Care: To maintain the appearance and condition of your trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or cloth to gently remove loose dirt. For stains, use a mild soap and water solution applied with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Wipe down with a damp cloth. Ensure any mud or debris is removed from the tread.
  3. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
