FAQs

Is the Saucony ProGrid Ride 1 suitable for long-distance running?

While it was a performance trainer in 2008, it is now marketed as a lifestyle sneaker. It is better suited for casual wear and walking than for long-distance competitive running.

How do I ensure I choose the right size?

The ProGrid Ride 1 typically fits true to size. We recommend measuring your foot and comparing it to our standard UK sizing guide to ensure an accurate fit.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing can damage the synthetic overlays and the internal foam structure. Stick to manual surface cleaning.

What is the primary material used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from a breathable mix of mesh and textile, reinforced with synthetic overlays for durability.

Is the cushioning suitable for flat feet?

The shoe features neutral cushioning. If you have severe arch support needs, you may want to swap the stock insole for a dedicated orthotic.

Why is it called the ProGrid Ride 1?

The name references the original 2008 product series, with 'ProGrid' highlighting the specific cushioning technology used in that model's era.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone frequently

Ensure the laces are threaded through the top eyelet for a 'runner's loop' or double knotting to maintain tension.

Visible dirt on mesh upper

Use a soft-bristled brush or an old toothbrush to gently scrub dirt out of the mesh pores while dry, then wipe with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, follow these maintenance tips. The ProGrid Ride 1 utilizes a standard lace-up fastening system, allowing for a customizable fit; ensure you tighten from the bottom eyelets upward to prevent pressure points. For care, keep the shoes clean by wiping them down with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the mesh upper in water or using harsh chemicals that could damage the metallic geometric overlays. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the foam midsole and synthetic reinforcements. Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the textile materials.
