FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

No, the Reebok Prime Event trainers are designed for everyday wear and light training, not for high-performance athletic events like marathons.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dirt and revive the nap. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended, used according to its instructions. Avoid excessive moisture on the suede.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the rubber sole offers some grip, the suede and textile upper are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and staining.

What does 'Prime Event' refer to?

The 'Prime Event' likely refers to the specific model or series name given by Reebok to this particular trainer design, emphasizing its role as a key or primary choice for everyday wear.

How do I ensure I order the correct size?

Please refer to the UK sizing indicated. If your box or label shows US or Euro sizing, compare it carefully to the UK size chart to ensure accuracy, as noted in the product description.

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The trainers are described as having a 'regular fit', which is generally suitable for most foot shapes. However, individuals with particularly wide feet might find them less accommodating than models specifically designed for wider fits.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight

Ensure you have correctly identified your UK size. Try wearing thinner socks or gently stretching the shoes if they are synthetic suede and textile, though significant stretching may not be possible.

Suede material looks dirty or matted

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consider a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully.

Sole provides poor grip

Clean the rubber sole thoroughly to remove any dirt, mud, or debris that may be lodged in the tread pattern. Ensure the surface you are walking on is not excessively wet or slippery.

Discomfort during wear

Break in the trainers by wearing them for short periods initially. Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a comfortable but secure fit. Check for any internal seams or debris that might be causing irritation.

  • Lightweight cushioning provides comfort for extended periods.

  • Good traction due to the non-slip tread pattern.
  • Unisex design appeals to a wide range of users.

Cons

  • Suede material requires specific care to maintain its appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility:

  • Sizing: Please ensure you try footwear on before returning, as the box or label may state a US/Euro size which is different to the UK size. It is recommended to confirm your UK size.
  • Footwear Type: Designed as unisex adult trainers.

Care:

  • Upper Material: The upper combines textile and synthetic suede. For the suede portions, use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and restore nap. Avoid using water excessively on suede.
  • Soles: Clean the rubber soles with a damp cloth. Ensure the tread area is free of debris for optimal grip.
  • General Cleaning: For the textile parts and general upkeep, wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Allow trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
