Saucony Hornet, Trainer 1980, Ms. Gripper and Dove II vintage sneaker ad

Here’s a 1979 vintage sneaker ad for Saucony featuring the Hornet, Trainer 1980, Ms. Gripper and Dove II vintage running shoe models. The Hornet and Trainer 1980 received Runner’s World 5-star honors.

Ad info is below:

Not one, but two Saucony running shoes rated 5-Stars by Runner's World

Hornet — This Runners World 5-Star Shoe is listed as “an excellent shoe. Very good construction, excellent buy. We recommend this shoe highly." It was ranked #1 for rearfoot impact absorption

Trainer 1980 — Given a #1 ranking for flexibility, this Runner's World 5-Star Shoe was called "A brand new excellent shoe… We recommend this shoe." It’s made with soft foam replacing the insole board.

Ms. Gripper — Rated 4-Stars by Runner's World. “Excellent rearfoot cushioning." Saucony's second generation in a long line of fine women's running shoes.

Dove II — "Excellent rearfoot impact protection... " says Runner's World. "Best buy for the money. We recommend it." Rated an RW 4-Star Shoe.

Were pleased. But were not surprised: We've been making quality shoes in Kutztown since 1898. We know what it takes to make a shoe that provides maximum comfort and support. So we're not surprised that these two were given top ranking. Or that our two women's models are Runner's World 4-Star Shoes.

The only thing surprising about Saucony is our price. Each of our top-rated shoes is the lowest priced shoe of its type. But we're not about to sit back and rest on our stars. We're committed to old-fashioned pride of craftsman-ship. And we're dedicated to finding design improvements to make our top-rated shoes even better. So don't be surprised to find Saucony out in front. In the ratings ... and the running.

Saucony's new Trainer 1980 exposes the secret to comfort

Look under the sock liner There's nothing there but soft foam. We've eliminated the insole board to make a shoe that guarantees carpet-cushioned running ease. Trainer 1980 is the only training shoe made this way . . . with increased cushioning, but lighter in weight than any other. And it's hand-crafted on a last designed primarily for elite-class runners.

Saucony's grip-fit counter, contoured nylon uppers, flared heel and mid-sole, and wider toe box position the foot firmly over a Nora-Tuff° sole that's more durable and diffuses shock more effectively. So if you're looking forward to miles and miles of no-stress training .. . get just the right combination of lightweight comfort and durable support. Try on Saucony's new Trainer 1980 at your running shop or sporting goods store. You'll feel the difference. On your feet and in your pocket.
