FAQs

What is the main benefit of the Superfloat+ cushioning?

The Superfloat+ cushioning provides enhanced energy return, giving the shoes a 'springy' feel that can make runs more dynamic and potentially reduce fatigue.

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The trainers feature a supportive leather upper which might be less forgiving for very wide feet. It's recommended to try them on if possible or consider loosening the laces significantly.

How durable is the outsole?

The outsole is made from high-abrasion-resistant carbon rubber, designed for durability and traction during regular running and training.

Can I wear these for long-distance running?

The FloatZig 2 is designed for a range of runs, including easy miles and fast-paced efforts. While comfortable for moderate distances, performance for ultra-marathons may vary based on individual needs and preferences.

How should I clean the leather upper?

Gently wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the leather.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from leather, offering support and structure, with some textile and PU synthetic film components.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even pressure distribution. If the tightness persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if a break-in period is needed for the leather upper.

Reduced springiness over time

Ensure the shoes are clean, especially the outsole. While the Superfloat+ cushioning is designed for longevity, excessive wear or accumulation of debris can impact the feel. For significant degradation, consider replacement.

Squeaking noise

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers or friction. Try wearing slightly thicker socks or applying a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe (ensure it's fully dry first).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup beyond lacing them up for a secure fit. Ensure the laces are tied snugly but not so tight as to impede circulation.

Care: To maintain the condition of your Reebok FloatZig 2 trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather and synthetic upper with a damp cloth. For the outsole, use a brush to remove dirt and debris.
