From the archives, Saucony has revitalized the Trainer 80 and given it a proper modern upgrade. Ahead of its time in 1978, the Trainer 80 once re-established what a high-performance sneaker could be. In their rerelease, Saucony has upgraded the sneaker with mesh and suede uppers for better breathability and style. Inside, the sneaker is equipped with a full-length EVA midsole for support and comfort all day. For added reliable grip, the Trainer 80 also includes a trended outsole. Available in 10 various colorways, the Trainer 80 can perfectly fit with any style or wardrobe. Now available via Saucony’s web store for $100, the Trainer 80 is a classic sneaker that continues to deliver long after its original release. A trendy yet timeless silhouette, the Trainer 80 isn’t just the latest trend, it’s a staple that has room in just about any wardrobe.
