FAQs
What is Grid Technology?
Grid Technology in Saucony shoes is an innovative cushioning system designed to provide stability and absorb impact by evenly distributing shock throughout the midsole.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The ProGrid Omni 9 trainers are well-suited for general fitness, walking, and light jogging due to their cushioning and stability features. For serious runners or specific disciplines like marathon running, dedicated performance running shoes might be more appropriate.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Saucony or the retailer. Generally, measure your foot length and compare it to the equivalent UK size. It's often recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary.
Can I wear these with orthotics?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable, allowing space for custom orthotics or insoles. Ensure the orthotic fits comfortably within the shoe.
What is the main difference between this and older Omni models?
This iteration reimagines the 2010 silhouette, likely offering updated materials, refined aesthetics, and potentially minor enhancements to the cushioning and support systems while retaining the core Grid Technology.
How do I clean the rubberized cage overlays?
Use a damp cloth with mild soap and water to gently wipe the overlays. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch or damage the material.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have the correct size. If slightly tight, wear with thin socks initially or consider using a shoe stretcher. The mesh and overlays may offer some give over time.
Reduced cushioning over time
The Grid Technology is designed for durability, but cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if comfort is significantly impacted.
Squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur due to friction between internal components or moisture. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or checking for loose parts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box and require no specific setup. They are compatible with standard athletic socks. To care for your ProGrid Omni 9 trainers, we recommend the following:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cool water to clean the mesh and rubber components. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, ideally not compressed to maintain their shape.
