FAQs

Are the Reebok Glide trainers true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to size. If you are between sizes, consider ordering based on your standard UK trainer size.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

No. Machine washing can damage the leather material and the glue structure. Always clean them by hand.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, but they are not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

Can I use these for running?

These are lifestyle trainers inspired by running heritage. They are not recommended for long-distance running or professional athletic performance.

What is the material of the upper?

This specific variant is crafted from high-quality, durable leather.

How do I maintain the white color?

Clean them regularly after use and consider using a leather protector spray to create a barrier against dirt and grime.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather upper

Leather creasing is normal with wear. Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the shoe's shape and minimize deep creases.

Scuff marks on the white finish

Gently rub a magic eraser or a leather-safe cream cleanser on the affected area, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.

Loss of cushioning feel

If the midsole feels compressed, replace the internal sockliner with an aftermarket insole to refresh the comfort level.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Reebok Glide trainers stay in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface with a damp cloth after use to remove surface dirt and prevent staining.
  2. Stain Removal: For stubborn scuffs on the white leather, use a mild leather cleaner or a specialized shoe cleaning wipe.
  3. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or the white color from yellowing.
  4. Moisture Control: If the shoes get wet, air dry them naturally at room temperature. Avoid placing them near direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can damage the leather.
  5. Compatibility: These trainers feature a neutral, classic style that pairs well with denim, chinos, or casual joggers, making them a highly compatible addition to any wardrobe.
