FAQs

What makes the Trainer 80 different from other running shoes?

The Trainer 80 revolutionized running with its integration of high-density EVA foam and the elimination of a cardboard layer between the sole and upper, providing a significantly softer and more responsive feel. It blends this heritage with modern street-style aesthetics.

Are these shoes suitable for intense running workouts?

The Trainer 80 is designed for everyday comfort, casual wear, and light athletic activities. While they offer good cushioning and support, they are not engineered for high-performance, intense training regimens. For specialized athletic events, consider models designed specifically for those purposes.

How do I ensure I get the right fit?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Saucony for accurate measurements. The Trainer 80 offers a unisex fit, so consulting the guide for UK men's or women's sizing is recommended. Ensure there is adequate room in the toe box without the heel slipping.

Can I machine wash these sneakers?

It is not recommended to machine wash the Saucony Trainer 80 sneakers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Hand wash using the care instructions provided.

What is the warranty period for the Trainer 80?

Please refer to the official Saucony website or your retailer for specific warranty information, as warranty periods can vary by region and purchase date.

Do these shoes come in other colors besides black?

The Trainer 80 series is available in a range of colorways. While this guide focuses on the black variant, other options may be available through different product listings or retailers.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

The Trainer 80 may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase the wear time. Ensure you have the correct size and consider using thicker socks if needed during the break-in phase.

Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces.

While the rubber outsole provides good grip, performance on extremely wet or slick surfaces can vary. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris. For significantly wet conditions, exercise caution.

Discoloration on the upper material.

Avoid exposing the shoes to prolonged direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean stains promptly using the recommended care methods and a mild cleaning agent.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Saucony Trainer 80 sneakers are ready to wear right out of the box. No assembly or setup is required.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for casual wear and light athletic activities. They are compatible with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, shorts, and athleisure wear. While they offer good support, they are not intended for highly specialized athletic performance like marathon running or intense gym training.

Care Instructions: To maintain the condition of your Trainer 80s:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently remove dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Wipe the foam midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the materials.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as these can deform the shoe.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box to protect them from dust and moisture.
