Product Information

Full details

The Saucony Trainer 80 is a legendary heritage sneaker designed for adults who value a blend of classic retro aesthetics and reliable everyday comfort. By utilizing high-density EVA foam and a unique construction that eliminates the traditional cardboard lasting, this shoe provides a remarkably responsive and soft feel underfoot. While it excels as a stylish lifestyle trainer for casual wear, prospective buyers should note that its design reflects 1970s performance standards rather than modern high-intensity athletic technology.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the Trainer 80 was revolutionary in 1978, it is now classified as a lifestyle trainer and is not recommended for modern high-intensity running.

How do I clean suede portions of the shoe?

Use a dry suede brush to gently lift dirt, or a dedicated suede eraser for specific spots. Do not saturate suede with water.

Do these provide arch support?

The shoes offer a neutral fit. If you require specialized orthotic support, the insoles are generally removable to accommodate your own inserts.

Are they true to size?

Yes, the Saucony Trainer 80 generally fits true to standard adult sizing.

Can I put these in the dryer?

No. Never put your trainers in a dryer, as high heat can destroy the foam and damage the structural adhesives.

Troubleshooting

Sole starting to show minor creases

This is normal behavior for EVA foam; rotate your shoes daily to allow the foam to decompress.

Shoe feels slightly tight

Ensure you are using the correct lacing technique to allow for volume expansion across the midfoot.

Dirt stuck in tread patterns

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently dislodge debris from the outsole grooves.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally soft and responsive cushioning
  • Lightweight feel due to advanced sole construction
  • Timeless design that pairs well with casual outfits
  • High level of flexibility for natural foot movement

Cons

  • Not intended for technical sports or long-distance running
  • Retro support levels may feel different from modern stability shoes
  • Requires occasional cleaning to maintain the finish of the upper materials

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are classic trainers, they fit true to size. To keep your Trainer 80s in top condition, avoid machine washing, which can damage the glues and materials. Instead, spot clean the upper using a soft cloth and a gentle soap solution. If your model features suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For the EVA midsole, a simple wipe with a damp cloth is usually sufficient to remove scuffs. Ensure the shoes are air-dried away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent warping or material degradation.
