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.

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.
