Product Information
Full details
The Saucony ProGrid Omni 9 is designed for adult men seeking a reliable, technical trainer that balances 2010s heritage style with modern performance needs. Featuring a GORE-TEX lined upper, these shoes offer exceptional weather resistance, making them ideal for winter conditions or wet commutes; however, the leather construction and substantial build may feel warmer and heavier than lightweight mesh running shoes.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While based on a 2010 technical running silhouette, they are optimized for stability and daily wear. They are better suited for walking and casual use than for high-mileage performance running.
Does the GORE-TEX lining make the shoe waterproof?
Yes, the GORE-TEX lining provides a high level of water resistance, keeping feet dry during rain and snow, though they should not be submerged in deep water.
How do I care for the leather upper?
Use a damp cloth for cleaning. We recommend using a leather-safe conditioner periodically to prevent the leather from cracking or drying out.
Is the TPU cage adjustable?
The cage is integrated into the lacing system; tightening or loosening your laces directly affects the level of lockdown provided by the midfoot cage.
Are these trainers true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK adult sizing. If you prefer a wider fit, consider that the support cage provides a snug, secure feeling.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of stiffness in the midfoot
Loosen the laces across the TPU cage and wear slightly thicker socks for a few sessions to help the structure soften to your foot shape.
Excessive heat build-up
Ensure you are using moisture-wicking socks to manage internal humidity, as the GORE-TEX lining is designed for weatherproofing rather than high-airflow ventilation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Saucony ProGrid Omni 9 trainers maintain their performance and appearance:
- Sizing: These shoes fit true to standard adult male sizing; ensure you wear your typical performance sock thickness when checking the fit.
- Break-in: Due to the leather overlays and supportive TPU cage, wear them for shorter durations for the first few days to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Wipe leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the leather finish over time.
- GORE-TEX Maintenance: Avoid harsh chemical cleaners that may compromise the waterproof membrane. If the interior gets wet, air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials.
