FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathons?
While the Energen Tech Plus 3 is excellent for daily mileage, it is primarily categorized as a daily trainer and may not provide the same energy return as specialized carbon-plated marathon racing shoes.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to wash these shoes in a machine as the heat and agitation can degrade the FloatRide Fuel foam and the adhesive integrity.
Are these true to size?
Yes, the Energen Tech Plus 3 follows a standard regular fit, though individuals with wider feet may prefer to verify their size against the Reebok standard size guide.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from polyester, which is selected for its balance of durability and structure.
Is this shoe suitable for cross-training?
The shoe is optimized for running, but its stable rubber outsole and secure fit provide enough versatility for general fitness and light gym work.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on the top of the foot
Try re-lacing the trainers using a different lacing pattern, such as the window lacing technique, to relieve pressure on the midfoot.
Excessive movement or heel slippage
Ensure the lace lock or runner's loop is utilized to secure the heel firmly against the back of the shoe.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent underfoot cushioning for long-term comfort
- Reliable road grip provided by the full rubber outsole
- High-quality polyester upper balances durability and breathability
- Immediate comfort straight out of the box with the Insite Sock Liner
Cons
- Primarily designed for road use, not suitable for rugged off-road terrain
- Limited to polyester-based material which may not be as cooling as specialized mesh
- The aesthetic is a specific bold three-tone palette which may not suit all style preferences
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trainers, follow these care and setup guidelines:
- Lace Adjustment: Upon initial use, loosen the laces completely and tighten them while the shoe is on your foot to find the optimal midfoot tension.
- Routine Cleaning: Remove surface dirt after runs using a soft-bristled brush. If the shoes become muddy, wipe them down with a damp cloth; do not machine wash, as this may degrade the midsole foam.
- Drying: Always air-dry at room temperature. Avoid placing the shoes near heaters or direct sunlight, which can warp the materials or damage the adhesive.
- Rotation: If running daily, consider alternating pairs to allow the internal cushioning and materials to decompress and recover between sessions.
