Product Information

Full details

The Saucony Trainer 80 is designed for adults seeking a blend of retro style and modern comfort for everyday wear and light athletic activities. Its key benefit is the revolutionary high-density EVA foam midsole, offering a softer and more responsive feel than traditional designs. A potential caveat is that while reimagined, it retains a vintage aesthetic which may not appeal to those seeking the latest performance-oriented shoe technology.

FAQs

What makes the Trainer 80 different from modern running shoes?

The Trainer 80 prioritizes a retro aesthetic and versatile comfort using its original high-density EVA foam. Modern running shoes often feature more advanced technologies for specialized performance, such as enhanced stability, energy return systems, and lighter, more breathable uppers designed for high-impact activities.

Can I use the Saucony Trainer 80 for serious running?

The Trainer 80 is best suited for casual wear, walking, and light athletic activities. It is not designed for the demands of serious or high-intensity running, which typically require shoes with more specialized support and cushioning.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the Saucony sizing chart available on the product page or website. Measure your foot length and compare it to the chart. Consider trying them on if possible, or review customer feedback on sizing if available.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the Saucony Trainer 80 is not waterproof. They are designed for general wear and light activity and will not protect your feet in wet conditions.

What is the primary benefit of the EVA foam?

The high-density EVA foam provides superior cushioning and responsiveness compared to older shoe construction methods. It offers a softer feel and helps absorb impact, making the shoe more comfortable for extended wear.

How should I care for the red color?

To maintain the vibrant red color, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean the shoes promptly if they get dirty, and use appropriate cleaning methods to prevent color transfer.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the sizing chart. If they are new, wear them around the house for short periods to allow them to break in. Laces can be adjusted for a more comfortable fit.

Sole feels stiff

The Trainer 80 features responsive EVA foam, but like any shoe, it may require a break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially to allow the midsole to adapt to your foot.

Color transfer on socks

This can occasionally happen with new, brightly colored footwear, especially in humid conditions. Wash the inside of the shoe gently with a damp cloth and allow to dry completely before wearing. If the issue persists, consider wearing darker socks.

Laces wear out or break

Replace worn or broken laces with standard athletic shoelaces. Ensure the length and thickness are similar to the original laces for proper fit and appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This shoe is designed for general adult use and is compatible with a wide range of casual and athletic apparel. It is suitable for individuals seeking a stylish and comfortable option for daily wear or light exercise.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to clean the exterior. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, especially on the suede or mesh sections. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap and water solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials and affect the shoe's shape.
  3. Storage: Store the Trainer 80 in a cool, dry place when not in use. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape. Avoid storing them in direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent color fading.
