Reebok Club C 85 Vintage - White/Blue - UK 4.5

Generally, Reebok Club C 85s are considered true to size. However, fit can vary slightly between individuals. As this is a UK size 3, it's recommended to consult Reebok's official size chart and measure your foot if you are unsure, especially if you are accustomed to US or EU sizing.

For routine cleaning, wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or sponge, then wipe off with a clean, damp cloth. Always allow them to air dry completely.

The Reebok Club C 85 is designed as a lifestyle and casual shoe, inspired by '80s court aesthetics. While they offer comfort for light activity, they are not engineered for high-performance sports like running, intense gym workouts, or court sports requiring specialized support and cushioning.

The EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate) midsole provides lightweight and flexible cushioning. It absorbs impact from walking, offering comfort and support for your feet throughout the day without adding unnecessary weight to the shoe.

A removable sockliner is an insole that can be easily taken out of the shoe. This feature allows you to clean the sockliner separately, air out the shoes, or replace it with custom orthotics or preferred insoles for personalised comfort and support.

The leather upper provides some protection from light elements, making them suitable for most seasons. However, they are not waterproof and may not offer sufficient warmth in very cold conditions or breathability in extreme heat compared to mesh-based shoes.

To minimize creasing, always unlace your shoes before taking them off. When storing, use shoe trees to help maintain the shoe's shape. Regular conditioning of the leather can also keep it supple and less prone to sharp creases.

First, check if you're wearing appropriate socks. The Club C 85 features a removable sockliner, which you can take out to create more space or replace with a thinner or thicker insole for a customised fit. If still an issue, double-check the sizing against a Reebok size chart, considering UK size 3 for this pair.

Clean the leather regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For scuffs, use a dedicated white leather cleaner or a leather conditioner. Gently rub the affected area. Applying a leather protector spray can help prevent future scuffs and maintain brightness.

This often happens due to friction between the removable sockliner and the insole. Try removing the sockliner, sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, then reinserting the sockliner. If the squeak persists, check if the sole is worn or if any foreign objects are lodged in the tread.

Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, stuffed with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape. *Do not* use direct heat. Once dry, apply a leather conditioner to rehydrate the leather and restore its suppleness.
