FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running or intense sports?

The Reef Neptune trainers are designed for comfort and travel, featuring a lightweight build and breathable knit. While suitable for casual walking and light activities, they may not provide the necessary support or cushioning for high-impact sports like running or intense training.

How do I clean the inside of the trainers?

For the interior, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe down the footbed. Allow them to air dry completely. For persistent odors, a light sprinkle of baking soda inside and letting it sit overnight can help, followed by emptying it out.

What does 'fold-over heel' mean?

The 'fold-over heel' is a design feature that allows the heel counter of the shoe to be easily flattened or folded down, transforming the trainer into a slip-on style for quick and effortless wear. It's designed to be flexible and easy to push down.

Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?

The breathable knit upper is not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended, and they should be allowed to air dry thoroughly afterwards.

What is the material of the outer fabric?

The outer fabric of these trainers is synthetic, designed to be durable and easy to maintain for everyday wear and travel.

How does the sizing run for this model?

These trainers generally follow standard UK sizing. However, the stretch knit upper offers some flexibility. It is recommended to consult any available sizing charts or customer reviews for specific fit guidance.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the laces for a more secure or relaxed fit. The stretch knit upper also provides some adaptability.

Difficulty folding the heel.

Ensure you are applying even pressure to the heel area. The fold-over design is intended for easy compression.

Discoloration or staining on the fabric.

Spot clean immediately with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight which can fade colors.
