Product Information
Full details
The Saucony ProGrid Omni 9 trainers are designed for adult males seeking a blend of retro style and modern comfort for everyday wear and light running. Their key benefit lies in the ProGrid technology offering shock absorbency and enhanced cushioning. A potential caveat is that while updated with recycled materials, the overall design is rooted in a 2010 icon, which might not suit those looking for the absolute latest athletic shoe technology. Key features include a breathable mesh upper, premium suede and synthetic overlays, a recycled lining and footbed, ProGrid cushioning, a comfortable midsole, and a durable rubber outsole for traction.

FAQs
What is ProGrid technology?
ProGrid technology is Saucony's cushioning system designed to provide shock absorbency and enhance comfort by absorbing impact and dispersing energy.
Are these shoes suitable for professional running?
The ProGrid Omni 9 is designed for casual wear and light running. For competitive or high-intensity training, other specialized running shoes might be more appropriate.
How do I clean the suede parts of the shoe?
Use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner and conditioner can be used, always following the product's instructions and testing on an inconspicuous area first.
What does 'recycled lining and footbed' mean for the shoe?
It means that the materials used for the inner lining and the insole of the shoe have been sourced from recycled materials, contributing to a more sustainable manufacturing process.
What surfaces are the rubber outsole best suited for?
The durable rubber outsole provides excellent traction on various surfaces, including paved roads, sidewalks, light trails, and indoor gym floors.
How should I dry the shoes if they get wet?
Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid placing them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
Is this shoe unisex?
This specific product listing is for men's sizing. While the design may appeal broadly, it is manufactured and sized for adult males.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try wearing thinner socks. The shoes may also loosen slightly with wear.
Suede material looks dirty or scuffed
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.
Traction feels reduced
Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth or brush to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that may be affecting grip.
Discomfort during light runs
Verify you are using the correct size and fit. Ensure the laces are tied appropriately – not too tight or too loose. Consider wearing moisture-wicking running socks.
