FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?
Yes, while designed for basketball, the cushioning makes them comfortable for casual, everyday wear.
Does the shoe run true to size?
The Answer 4 generally fits true to standard adult male sizing, but leather can feel snug initially.
Can I remove the insoles?
The insoles are designed for the specific DMX cushioning system and are not intended to be removed.
What is the best way to store these trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking and foam degradation.
Is the leather upper waterproof?
The leather is water-resistant, but not waterproof; avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Stiff fit during first few wears
Wear the shoes for shorter intervals indoors to allow the leather to naturally conform to your foot shape.
Accumulation of dust on the outsole affecting grip
Wipe the bottom of the outsole with a slightly damp cloth to restore the traction pattern's effectiveness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the longevity of your Reebok Answer 4 trainers, keep them away from excessive heat sources that could warp the leather or compromise the foam midsole. For cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away dirt from the leather upper and synthetic inserts. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the adhesive and structural integrity. For the best fit, pair these with performance basketball socks to manage moisture during use.
