FAQs
What is the main benefit of the ProGrid Guide 7?
The primary benefit is the balance of stability, flexibility, and cushioning in a lightweight, retro-styled package that offers comfort for everyday running.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
While comfortable and supportive for shorter to medium distances, they may not offer the highly specialized features or advanced cushioning required by elite marathoners for peak performance.
How do I clean my ProGrid Guide 7 trainers?
Wipe them with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
What is the intended use for these trainers?
They are designed for road running, general fitness, and casual wear, prioritizing comfort and a classic style.
Can I wear these shoes for trail running?
No, these trainers are intended for road use and general fitness. They do not have the aggressive tread or protective features necessary for trail running.
What does 'ProGrid' refer to?
'ProGrid' refers to Saucony's technology designed to provide cushioning and stability, a hallmark of this shoe's design.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight, with no heel slippage.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size and that laces are tied appropriately. Consider wearing them for shorter periods initially to allow your feet to adapt.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
The midsole cushioning may naturally compress after significant use. For best performance, consider replacing trainers after 300-500 miles (500-800 km) or when cushioning feels diminished.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The outsole is designed for dry and moderately wet conditions. Exercise caution on very slick or wet surfaces, as specialized grip patterns are not the primary focus.
