Remember that pair of "good, sturdy, sensible" shoes your mother made you buy? She said they'd support your feet and really last. The only problem was they looked like "good, sturdy, sensible shoes!”
Introducing two new running shoe fashions from Saucony. We've combined an innovative design concept with all the features of our Runner's World 5-Star men's shoes into these attractive new women's shoes — Ms. Trainer 1980 and Ms. Hornet.
If you run miles every day to prepare for competition ... Ms. Trainer 1980 is the shoe for you. Its blue nylon uppers are trimmed with blue suede and a gold and blue Sau-cony stripe. The stud-type sole provides the cushioning that's vital for miles and miles of training.
If you run for pleasure and personal challenge . . . Ms. Hornet is the perfect shoe for you. Its beige nylon uppers are trimmed with tan suede and a brown and gold Sac-cony stripe. A seamless toe design is one of many features that makes this shoe super comfortable.
Ask for Ms. Trainer 1980 and Ms. Hornet at your favorite running shop or sporting goods store. Because a shoe that fits perfectly, is as comfortable as a cloud, and supports better than Grandma's orthopedics . . . doesn't have to be ugly.
Ms. Trainer 1980 and Ms. Hornet are the only training shoes constructed with Sau-cony's unique hinged insole. Firm fiberboard at the heel and toe is hinged by a velour strip at the ball of the foot to provide the ultimate in flexibility. An-other innovative concept from Saucony to improve your running.
Indulge Yourself.
All Saucony running shoes are made in the U.S.A.
