Saucony GTX

Autumn changes conditions, but not the running plan. Saucony's GTX collection is designed for just that: keeping the runner's routine intact when rain comes, leaves cover trails, and morning darkness sets in. The collection brings together six models across road and trail under one common technological pivot: GORE-TEX Invisible Fit Technology. These models cover runners from asphalt to mountain trails, from stability needs to ultra distances, from carry-over favorites to brand new shoe concepts.

GORE-TEX INVISIBLE FIT — WATERPROOF AND BREATHABLE TECHNOLOGY

GORE-TEX Invisible Fit Technology is the waterproof and breathable membrane integrated directly into the upper without adding a separate GTX bootie. The technique places the membrane close to the original upper, so the shoe retains its perceived fit, flexibility, and breathability, but forms an effective barrier against rain, slush, and damp surfaces. This is what sets Invisible Fit apart from older GTX constructions: you don't feel the membrane as an extra layer. You just feel that your foot stays dry. The technology works both ways. It keeps water out and allows perspiration moisture to escape, so the foot doesn't overheat and accumulate sweat during long autumn sessions. The result is a shoe that in dry weather feels like any other Saucony model, and in rain just continues unaffected.

ROAD MODELS: TRIUMPH 24 GTX AND HURRICANE 26 GTX

Saucony brings two road models to the GTX season. Triumph 24 GTX is the series' carry-over model and the provider of maximum cushioning for runners who want to keep their preferred long-distance platform into the cold half-year. The PWRRUN+ midsole is unchanged from the established Triumph 24, and the combination with GORE-TEX Invisible Fit means that the soft, responsive experience on wet asphalt is the same as on dry surfaces. Hurricane 26 GTX is new for the season and is Saucony's stability model with GTX protection. With a combination of structural support and weather protection, it is aimed at runners needing pronation control who don't want to interrupt their winter program just because of the weather. Both models are ideal for everyday training and commuter runs, where no agenda should hang on the weather forecast.

TRAIL SEGMENT: FOUR GTX MODELS FOR THE TRAILS

From trail segment come four models that together cover a wide spectrum of routes and runner profiles. Xodus Ultra 4 GTX is new and built for long, hilly routes where terrain, weather, and distances place the highest demands on the foot. Peregrine 16 GTX comes with a color refresh and brings one of Saucony's most known trail platforms into the season in a new collection. Ride TR3 GTX gets a style update and is the hybrid shoe that moves comfortably across mixed surfaces and shorter asphalt passages. Guide TR GTX is new and offers stability on the trail with the GTX membrane's protection, intended for runners needing extra support in hilly and technical terrain. With four trail models in the collection, there is a GTX solution for those who run fast, those who run long, and those who do both.

WHO IS SAUCONY GTX FOR?

The Saucony GTX collection is for the runner who doesn't wait for the right weather. It suits those with weekly plans and routes laid out who don't want to adjust them just because the temperature drops. The need determines the choice: the road runner focused on cushioning chooses Triumph 24 GTX, the stability runner on asphalt chooses Hurricane 26 GTX, and the trail runner adapts their choice based on route length, terrain, and support needs. GORE-TEX Invisible Fit is common to all six models and ensures that weather protection is there when needed, without altering the shoe's fundamental experience.
