FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While based on a 2008 performance running shoe, the ProGrid Ride 1 is reissued primarily for lifestyle and casual everyday use.

How does the sizing run?

The Saucony ProGrid Ride 1 generally fits true to size for standard adult feet, but we recommend referencing the UK size 8.5 specification for your specific fit.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

We strongly advise against machine washing as it can damage the structural integrity of the metallic overlays and the cushioning foam.

What is the primary material used?

The trainers feature a mix of breathable textile mesh and durable synthetic overlays.

Does the shoe provide arch support?

Yes, the inclusion of the webbed shank cage provides midfoot structural support and stability.

Are the laces replaceable?

Yes, the standard lace-up system allows you to replace the laces with any standard length athletic shoe lace.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone frequently

Ensure you are using a double-knot or a locking runner's knot to secure the laces over the padded tongue.

Visible scuffs on white synthetic overlays

Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a gentle melamine sponge to carefully lift surface scuffs from the synthetic materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Saucony ProGrid Ride 1s remain in top condition:

  1. Fitting: Ensure the lace fastening is snug but not restrictive to allow for natural foot movement.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh and synthetic overlays. For deeper stains, use a mild soap solution and a damp cloth; avoid total immersion in water to preserve the foam integrity.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the metallic overlays and white materials from yellowing or fading over time.
  4. Rotation: If worn daily, consider rotating with another pair to allow the foam midsole to decompress and moisture to evaporate.
