Gender Inclusive Trainer 80 Sneaker

In a world of high stack plated marshmallows this was refreshing a real performance racing flat from the late 70's .Yes You Can Run in These made with proper foam. Edwin Roberts Temple University ran in these in 1978-80 Edwin called them the "Deffest" a 70s "cool word" It was very cool to see a retro trainer with actual performance traits retained , so you can actually run in them. Unlike most brand retro trainers brought back for "walk around" fashion divas only. Its good likely for D wide so regular or narrow but if an E wide or wider you will hang over the outsole so not good. I get the business decision here but I would have loved to experience running in these. If they can make a wide someday. I like to experience how real athletes like me trained decades ago. Saucony let me know if you ever do these in a wide :)

Beautiful styled shoe. It has that classic/retro look that can be dressed up or down - depending on your vibe. The only drawback is that the shoe did not fit me well. I typically wear a size 12 M, but ordered these in a size 11.5, as I was planning to wear without socks, or thin no-show socks. The length and width of the shoe fit just right, but for whatever reason, the heel of the shoe felt very low against the back of my foot, and slipped off while I was trying them on. I decided to return them but will try ordering in my regular size 12 and see how that goes.
