Saucony Progrid Omni 9 'Microchip'
The Saucony ProGrid Omni 9 originally launched as a premium performance running shoe, built around Saucony's ProGrid cushioning system for responsive impact protection. It has since been revived as a lifestyle silhouette, riding the wave of early 2000s running shoe nostalgia alongside models like the ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 and New Balance 860. The Omni 9's layered upper design and technical aesthetic have made it a favourite in the fashion-forward sneaker community.
The Microchip colourway runs a pale grey and white perforated mesh upper layered under polished silver and chrome synthetic overlays across the midfoot, eyestay and heel counter. Dark charcoal mesh at the collar and grey panelling at the toe and heel add depth to the tonal base, with a black outlined Saucony logo on the sidewall. A white midsole sits above a two-tone grey and charcoal outsole, with white laces completing the look.
ProGrid cushioning technology for responsive, comfortable wear throughout the day. Perforated grey and white mesh upper with layered synthetic overlays for breathability and structure. Reflective trim detailing across the midfoot and heel panels. SRC Impact Zone in the heel for enhanced shock absorption. Durable rubber outsole with multi-surface traction. Padded collar and tongue for a secure, comfortable fit.
Fit: Runs true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK size.

The Microchip Omni 9 suits anyone who wants the retro runner silhouette without any colour to work around. The full tonal grey and silver treatment makes it the most versatile execution in the range and the easiest to wear daily. The ProGrid cushioning also means it holds up as a genuine all-day shoe rather than just a style piece.
The Microchip Omni 9 is the most neutral of the range and works with essentially anything, from black or grey joggers to washed denim and cargos. The tonal grey and silver palette means it slots into a monochrome fit without pulling attention, and the chrome overlays do enough on their own to keep it from reading flat.
The ProGrid Omni 9 sits alongside the ASICS Gel-Kayano 14, New Balance 860 and Nike Zoom Vomero in the retro technical running category. Compared to the Gel-Kayano 14, the Omni 9 offers a wider fit and a more substantial midsole. Microchip is the most neutral colourway in the current Omni 9 range, making it the pick over White Silver Blue or Speed Shades for anyone who wants the silhouette with no accent colour at all.
Yes, the ProGrid Omni 9 runs true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK size. The mesh upper provides a comfortable, breathable fit without being too tight or too loose.
ProGrid is Saucony's cushioning technology that uses a grid-based system in the midsole to provide responsive impact protection. It distributes force evenly across the foot for comfortable all-day wear, whether you're walking, standing, or on the move.
This colourway is stocked in UK 7 to UK 11, which covers standard men's sizing. The shoe is unisex by design, so anyone whose size falls within that range can wear it.
We recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid putting them in the washing machine as this can damage the chrome overlays and mesh upper. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
