FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Hurrikaze II Low OG generally fits true to size, providing a snug, performance-oriented fit suitable for standard foot widths.
Can I use these for outdoor basketball?
While durable, the outsole is optimized for indoor court surfaces. Consistent outdoor use may accelerate tread wear.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from a combination of premium black nubuck and supportive white leather overlays.
Does this shoe feature modern cushioning?
Yes, it utilizes Reebok's signature Hexalite cushioning technology to provide lightweight impact protection.
How do I keep the white leather clean?
Wipe the white leather sections with a clean, damp cloth immediately after use to prevent dirt from setting into the grain.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the leather overlays
Use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain the structure and minimize deep creasing.
Dirt buildup on the nubuck
Use a specialized nubuck cleaning brush or eraser to gently lift debris without damaging the texture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shoes last, follow a consistent maintenance routine. Since these trainers feature nubuck, avoid submerging them in water or using harsh chemicals. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the black nubuck panels. For the white leather overlays, use a damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner to wipe away scuffs. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the materials from fading or cracking over time. Always loosen the laces fully before inserting or removing your foot to preserve the shape of the heel counter.
