Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect
Refer to the Saucony size chart for accurate measurements. Consider trying on the shoes or consulting reviews for insights on fit, as variations can occur.
Materials appear creased or misshapen
This can sometimes happen during shipping. Gently reshape the shoe and allow it to sit at room temperature. Avoid using heat to speed up the process.
Slight odor from new shoes
This is common with new footwear. Allow the shoes to air out in a well-ventilated area for a day or two. You can also place baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.
