Saucony Men: ProGrid Omni and Triumph Sneakers

Saucony: the story of a brand that has been running for over 125 years

Saucony was founded in 1898 in Kutztown, Pennsylvania, on the banks of the Saucony Creek. From that small stream comes the name of a brand that, throughout the twentieth century, became one of the world's leading names in sports footwear — winning over athletes first, then the streets of the entire world.

For over a century, Saucony has developed cushioning and support technologies designed for people who truly run: marathon runners, trail runners, weekend joggers. This movement culture gives the brand a precise identity — shoes built to perform, not just to be seen — which today translates into iconic silhouettes that have become must-haves in global sneaker culture.

From running to the street: the legacy of Saucony models

What makes Saucony unique in the sneaker landscape is its ability to stay true to its origins. The models you wear in the city today were, in their earliest versions, competition shoes. Every line carries with it the engineering of decades of research into foot biomechanics.

Saucony Progrid Omni 9

Originally conceived as a motion-control running shoe for pronation, the Progrid Omni 9 combines a breathable technical mesh upper with a ProGrid cushioning system in the heel zone — Saucony's exclusive technology that evenly distributes impact across the entire contact surface. The Carbon Rubber outsole ensures long-lasting durability, while the shoe's oversized profile and bold colorways make it a streetwear style piece today. Available in white, blue and beige, it works equally well with a sportswear outfit or the everyday denim-and-sneakers combination.

Saucony Progrid Triumph 4

Designed for long-distance running, the Triumph 4 is built around a maximum cushioning platform that absorbs impact on any surface. The result is a shoe with a clean synthetic upper, a voluminous and contemporary profile, available in white. Worn today as a lifestyle sneaker, the Triumph 4 projects a chunky, retro aesthetic that fits perfectly with the current taste for thick-soled footwear.

ProGrid technology: what sets Saucony apart

The technical core of Saucony's vintage models is ProGrid technology — a grid cushioning system developed in the 1990s that works through a structure of interconnected cells capable of deforming under load and instantly returning to their original shape. Unlike traditional foams, ProGrid offers progressive cushioning: the more pressure you apply, the more the material's response adapts.

This engineering solution, originally developed to protect the joints of long-distance runners, is today also the reason why Saucony sneakers are comfortable to wear all day long. It's not just retro aesthetics — it's comfort backed by decades of athletic use.

Saucony for men and women: a style with no boundaries

The Saucony models in Faraone.'s selection are unisex or available in inclusive sizing, designed for those who don't want gender to dictate style choices. The Progrid Omni 9 in particular is offered in a size range that covers both men's and women's fits, with colorways suited to everyone.

The chosen color palettes — pure white, navy blue, greige beige — reflect the brand's minimalist approach: no chromatic excess, just tones that integrate easily into an existing wardrobe while maintaining the recognisability of the silhouette.

Why choose Saucony

Saucony sneakers don't follow trends — they anticipate them. In a market where retro running has become the dominant language of global streetwear, Saucony is one of the brands that invented that language. Buying a pair of Progrid Omni 9 or Triumph 4 doesn't mean following a passing trend: it means choosing a shoe with a genuine story behind it.

Compared to other brands that re-edit historical silhouettes with cheaper materials, the Saucony models available at Faraone. maintain the original technical construction: technical mesh upper, ProGrid midsole, Carbon Rubber outsole. You pay for the quality you see — and the quality you don't.
