FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
The ProGrid Guide 7 is designed for versatile training; while comfortable for daily runs, its design is best suited for general training and lifestyle use.
Can I replace the insoles with orthotics?
Yes, the provided insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if preferred.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Gently clean the mesh using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid scrubbing too hard to prevent fraying the fabric.
Is the sizing true to standard?
The fit follows standard sizing, though the retro construction may feel slightly more structured than modern minimalist trainers.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the breathable mesh upper is designed for ventilation and will not prevent water from entering during heavy rain.
Does this model come in different widths?
The ProGrid Guide 7 is typically produced in a standard width profile.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of pressure on the midfoot
Adjust the lacing tension, opting for a 'window' lacing technique to relieve pressure on the top of the foot.
Outsole collecting debris
Use a small brush or toothpick to gently dislodge rocks or mud from the tread patterns to maintain optimal traction.
Interior material feels damp after long wear
Remove the insoles after activity to allow them to air out separately, which helps in moisture evaporation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity and comfort of your Saucony ProGrid Guide 7, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure you select the correct size, as the structure is designed for a secure fit. If you prefer to wear thicker performance socks, consider the standard fit profile.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt from the mesh and sole. For deeper stains, hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high heat can damage the foam and adhesive.
- Drying: Air dry the trainers at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent material warping.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the breathable mesh and cushioning foam.
