Product Information

Full details

The Reebok R400 Trainers are designed for adults seeking a stylish, versatile sneaker with a nod to vintage running aesthetics. Their key benefit lies in the blend of premium materials and a comfortable, low-profile design suitable for everyday wear. A potential caveat is their slim profile, which might not offer the same level of cushioning as more modern, performance-oriented trainers. This unisex edition features a breathable nylon base with soft suede overlays, a vibrant green logo for a heritage contrast, and a classic gum rubber outsole.

FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Reebok R400 Trainers are inspired by running shoes but are primarily designed for casual wear and light activities. They may not offer the advanced cushioning and support required for serious running or athletic training.

How do I clean the nylon and suede parts?

Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth for the nylon. For the suede, use a suede brush and specific suede cleaners. Avoid machine washing or soaking.

What does 'low-profile silhouette' mean?

It refers to a shoe design that is relatively flat and close to the ground, as opposed to bulky or high-profile designs. This offers a sleek look and a more direct feel.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

While the gum rubber outsole offers some grip, these trainers are best suited for dry or moderately damp conditions. Extensive exposure to heavy rain may affect the materials.

What is the sizing like for these trainers?

These are unisex trainers, and the sizing generally follows standard UK shoe sizes. It's recommended to check the Reebok size guide for the most accurate fit, especially considering the slim profile.

What inspired the design of the R400?

The design is inspired by Reebok's deep running archives from the 1980s, aiming to replicate the aesthetic of original racing blueprints.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort after wearing

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The slim profile may require a break-in period. Consider using thinner socks if the fit feels snug.

Suede material looks dull

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap of the material. For stubborn marks, use a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces

The gum rubber outsole is designed for dry to moderately wet conditions. Exercise caution on very slippery or wet surfaces as traction may be reduced.
