Product Information

Full details

The Saucony Trainer 80 is designed for adults seeking a blend of heritage running shoe technology with modern street-style aesthetics. Its key benefit is the revolutionary high-density EVA foam midsole, offering a softer, more responsive feel than its 1978 predecessors. A potential caveat is that while reimagined for today, its retro design might not suit all modern fashion preferences. This classic trainer features breathable mesh and suede uppers, a full-length EVA midsole for comfort, and a treaded outsole for grip.

FAQs

What makes the Trainer 80's cushioning revolutionary?

The Trainer 80 was one of the first shoes to integrate high-density EVA foam directly between the sole and upper. This design choice replaced older, stiffer methods, offering a significantly softer and more responsive feel for the wearer.

Are these shoes suitable for serious running?

While the Trainer 80 has roots in running shoe innovation, its modern iteration is best suited for casual wear, walking, and everyday comfort. For high-performance running, Saucony offers specialized running shoe models.

How do I clean the suede parts of the shoes?

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner, following the product's instructions. It's best to avoid getting the suede overly wet.

What does 'From the Archives to the Streets' mean for this shoe?

It signifies that the Trainer 80 is a faithful revival of a classic 1978 design, updated with modern sensibilities to be stylish and comfortable for contemporary street wear.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The Trainer 80 is not designed for wet weather conditions. The suede material can be easily damaged by water, and the breathability features may not provide adequate protection against rain.

What is the primary material used for the upper?

The upper is constructed using a combination of mesh for breathability and suede for a premium, stylish look.

How does the EVA midsole contribute to comfort?

The full-length EVA midsole provides continuous cushioning and shock absorption, making the trainers comfortable for extended wear throughout the day.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try wearing them with thinner socks initially to allow the materials to break in. If discomfort persists, consider alternative sizing or styles.

Suede material looks dirty or matted

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove loose dirt. For stubborn stains, consult a specialized suede cleaning product and follow its instructions precisely. Allow to air dry completely.

Outsole grip seems reduced

Clean the outsole thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be hindering traction. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before use.
