FAQs
What is Center Path Technology?
Center Path Technology is an exclusive Saucony design featuring a broad-based platform with higher sidewalls. It is engineered to cradle your foot and guide it through a stable, natural stride with enhanced comfort and protection.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
While comfortable for long distances, the Guide 19 is primarily designed as a daily trainer. For competitive marathon racing, runners might prefer a lighter, more responsive racing shoe. However, they can be excellent for marathon training runs.
What is the main difference between the Guide 19 and previous models?
The Guide 19 features a softer blend of PWRRUN foam for enhanced comfort and improved forefoot flexibility compared to some previous versions.
Can these shoes be used for cross-training activities?
While they can handle light cross-training due to their stable platform, they are optimized for running. For activities requiring significant lateral support, dedicated cross-training shoes are recommended.
What is the weight of the Saucony Guide 19?
The Saucony Guide 19 weighs 8.9oz (252g) for a women's standard size.
Are these shoes good for people who pronate?
Yes, the Guide 19 with its Center Path Technology is designed to offer support and guidance, making it suitable for runners who experience mild overpronation.
How should I clean my Guide 19 trainers?
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing in the heel.
Ensure laces are tied correctly, not too tight or too loose. Consider wearing thicker socks or breaking in the shoes over shorter distances.
Shoes feel too soft/mushy.
This is characteristic of the PWRRUN cushioning. If a firmer feel is preferred, these may not be the best option. Try a shoe with less cushioning or a different foam compound.
Reduced breathability.
Ensure the engineered mesh upper is not obstructed. Clean any debris from the mesh. If the issue persists, consider if the socks being worn are also breathable.
