FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Reebok Smash Edge Trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. They offer good comfort and grip for everyday activities but lack the specialized support and cushioning required for rigorous running.
How do I determine my UK size?
Please refer to a standard UK men's or women's shoe size chart. These are unisex trainers, so sizing may differ slightly from gender-specific models. The product information specifies UK sizing.
Can I wear these in the rain?
While the gum sole offers some protection, the suede upper is not waterproof. Wearing them in heavy rain is not recommended as it can damage the suede and potentially cause color bleeding.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper of the Reebok Smash Edge Trainers is made from premium suede.
How should I store these trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and sunlight. Ensure they are clean and dry before storage.
What does 'cupsole' mean?
A cupsole is a type of shoe construction where the upper is stitched to a sole that wraps up the sides of the foot, forming a 'cup'. This generally provides good durability and cushioning.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dirty or matted
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush in one direction to lift the nap. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser.
Gum sole is scuffed
Light scuffs on the gum sole can often be removed with a magic eraser or a soft cloth with mild soap and water. Ensure the sole is dry afterward.
Color transfer from red heel tab
Avoid wearing the shoes in wet conditions with light-colored socks or trousers. If color transfer occurs, gently clean the affected area with a mild soap and water solution.
