Product Information
Full details
The Saucony Trainer 80 is a retro-inspired trainer designed for adults seeking a blend of heritage style and modern comfort for everyday wear and light athletic activities. Its key benefit lies in the revolutionary high-density EVA foam cushioning, offering a responsive and softer feel than traditional designs. A potential caveat is that while reimagined for today, it maintains a retro aesthetic which may not suit all contemporary style preferences.

FAQs
Are the Saucony Trainer 80 suitable for running marathons?
The Trainer 80 is designed for casual wear and light athletic activities. While it offers good cushioning, it may not provide the specialized support and advanced features required for marathon running.
How do I know if I have the right size?
A proper fit should allow about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The shoe should feel snug around the heel and midfoot without being constricting.
Can I machine wash my Trainer 80s?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoe. Hand wash or spot clean using a damp cloth and mild soap.
What does 'high-density EVA foam' mean for comfort?
High-density EVA foam provides a balance of cushioning and responsiveness. It absorbs impact effectively, making the shoe feel softer underfoot while still providing a stable and energetic feel during movement.
What is the difference between this retro version and the original 1978 model?
The Trainer 80 faithfully reimagines the original's design and materials, including the revolutionary EVA foam. Updates focus on modern manufacturing techniques and available colorways, while preserving the core heritage and performance characteristics.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The Trainer 80 is not designed to be waterproof. They are made from materials suitable for dry to mildly damp conditions. For heavy rain, waterproof footwear is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them with thicker or thinner socks to adjust fit. Break them in gradually by wearing them for short periods initially.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The grip pattern is designed for versatility. For exceptionally smooth or wet surfaces, exercise caution. Ensure the soles are free from mud or debris which can reduce traction.
Discoloration of the fabric
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean as per the care instructions using appropriate mild cleaning agents.
Laces fraying or breaking
Inspect laces regularly. Replace with standard shoelaces of a similar length and material if they show signs of wear.

Care: To maintain the condition of your Trainer 80s:
- Cleaning: Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners. For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush.
- 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.
