Product Information
Full details
The Reebok Royal Glide Trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of old-school style and modern comfort for both athletic activities and casual wear. Their key benefit lies in providing versatile support and a comfortable feel for all-day wear, though they may offer less advanced cushioning for high-impact sports. These trainers feature a low-cut design for mobility, a padded ankle collar for support, a die-cut EVA midsole for comfort, and a TPU heel clip for stability.

FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The Reebok Royal Glide Trainers are designed more for casual wear and light training. For marathon running, dedicated running shoes with advanced cushioning and support are recommended.
What is the best way to store these trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree or stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing or spot cleaning with a damp cloth is the safest method to preserve the materials and structure.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel snug without slipping.
What does 'die-cut EVA midsole' mean?
Die-cut EVA means the foam midsole is cut from a sheet of EVA material into the precise shape needed. This provides lightweight cushioning and shock absorption.
Is the 'TPU heel clip' removable?
No, the TPU heel clip is an integrated part of the shoe's structure, designed to provide external support and stability to the heel. It is not designed to be removed.
What type of activities are these trainers NOT recommended for?
These trainers are not ideal for high-impact activities like trail running, professional basketball, or intense cross-training where specialized footwear is required.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort after first wear
The trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. For specific slippery surfaces, consider the limitations of the sole's tread pattern.
Inner lining shows wear quickly
Ensure socks are worn to reduce friction. Check for any rough spots inside the shoe that might be causing excessive wear.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Reebok Royal Glide Trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the synthetic upper with a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Sole: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to clean the EVA midsole and rubber sole. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Lining: If the interior becomes soiled, spot clean with a damp cloth. Ensure the trainers are aired out after use to prevent odor buildup.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
