FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the design is based on a high-mileage distance silhouette from the 1980s, the modern version is intended for lifestyle and casual wear, not athletic performance.
How should I clean the suede upper?
Use a specialized suede brush or a soft-bristled brush to gently lift dirt. Never submerge suede shoes in water.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, the Reebok GL 1600 features a regular fit, generally consistent with standard UK sizing.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Suede can be permanently damaged by water, so it is best to avoid wet weather or apply a high-quality protective spray beforehand.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed primarily from high-quality suede, providing the distinct texture associated with the GL 1600 series.
Troubleshooting
Visible water spots on the suede
Allow the shoes to air dry naturally, then use a suede brush in one direction to restore the nap of the material.
Difficulty maintaining the vibrant color
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and use a suede-refreshing spray to revive the tone.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers are primarily made of suede, keeping them dry is the priority.
- Protective Spray: Apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first use.
- Cleaning: Use a suede brush to gently remove surface dust and dirt. Avoid liquid cleaners unless specifically designed for suede.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Fit: The shoes offer a regular fit; if you typically wear a half-size, stick to your standard UK measurement for the most comfortable experience.
