FAQs

Are the Saucony Trainer 80 suitable for running?

The Trainer 80 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear shoe. While it offers comfort and cushioning, it lacks the advanced features and support of specialized running shoes for rigorous athletic training.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner and a damp cloth can be used, but always test on an inconspicuous area first and allow to air dry.

What is the main benefit of the EVA foam midsole?

The high-density EVA foam midsole provides excellent cushioning, shock absorption, and a responsive feel, making the shoes comfortable for all-day wear.

Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash the Saucony Trainer 80, as this can damage the suede, mesh, and adhesive components. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

What does 'From the Archives to the Streets' mean in the product description?

This phrase indicates that the Trainer 80 is a faithful revival of a classic shoe from Saucony's past (the 'Archives') that has been updated for modern everyday wear and style ('the Streets').

How do the mesh and suede uppers contribute to the shoe's performance?

The mesh provides breathability to keep feet cool and comfortable, while the suede adds durability and a premium aesthetic, contributing to both comfort and style.

What is the expected lifespan of the Trainer 80?

The lifespan depends on usage and care. However, with proper maintenance and use primarily for lifestyle purposes, the durable construction suggests they are designed to last for a considerable period.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break in the shoes with short periods of wear. Check that socks are properly fitted and not bunching up.

Suede material looks dirty or matted

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult specific suede cleaning products and follow their instructions carefully.

Laces become worn or frayed

Replace worn laces with new ones of a similar length and material. Many sports retailers offer a variety of replacement laces.

Outsole grip seems reduced

Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove accumulated dirt or debris that may be affecting traction. If the tread is significantly worn down, the shoes may need replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent blend of vintage style and modern comfort features.
  • Lightweight and breathable due to mesh upper.
  • Offers good cushioning for everyday wear.
  • Reliable grip from the treaded outsole.
  • Durable construction suggests longevity.

Cons

  • May not offer the advanced technical support found in specialized running shoes.
  • Suede material requires careful maintenance to avoid damage.
  • Classic fit might not suit everyone's foot shape.
  • Colorways may vary, potentially limiting options for some.
  • Primarily a lifestyle shoe, not intended for high-performance athletics.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

No specific setup is required for the Saucony Trainer 80; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and fit.

Compatibility:

These trainers are designed for a wide range of activities and outfits, primarily fitting into casual and lifestyle wear. They are compatible with various sock types; thinner socks are often preferred for breathability, especially with the mesh elements.

Care Instructions:

  • Uppers: Gently brush suede areas with a suede brush to remove loose dirt and maintain texture. For mesh areas, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe away surface marks. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  • Midsole: Clean the EVA midsole with a damp cloth. Stubborn marks can be addressed with a mild soap and water solution, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  • Outsole: Remove debris from the tread by brushing or using a damp cloth.
  • Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe box or dust bag, to protect them from dust and environmental damage.
