Product Information
Full details
The Reebok Floatzig Tread Trainers are designed for female runners who navigate diverse terrains, from city streets to light gravel paths. Their key benefit is providing a seamless transition and responsive cushioning for a dynamic run. A potential caveat is that while versatile, they are best suited for moderate trail conditions rather than aggressive off-road use. These trainers feature a breathable engineered mesh upper, durable overlays for support, and Reebok's signature Zig energy-return system for a springy feel, all complemented by a visually striking gradient midsole.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for hiking?
The Reebok Floatzig Tread Trainers are best suited for light trails and mixed-terrain running. For more demanding hiking with significant elevation changes or technical terrain, a dedicated hiking boot or trail shoe with more aggressive tread and ankle support would be more appropriate.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. Your heel should feel secure and not slip excessively.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as the harshness of the cycle can damage the materials, adhesives, and the structural integrity of the shoe. Hand cleaning as described in the care section is the preferred method.
What is the 'Zig' technology?
The Zig energy-return system is a unique sole geometry designed by Reebok that helps absorb impact and return energy, creating a responsive and springy feel with each step.
How durable is the engineered mesh upper?
The engineered mesh is designed for breathability and flexibility. The addition of structured heat-sealed overlays provides enhanced durability and support in key areas, helping to protect the mesh from abrasion.
What is the primary benefit of the gradient midsole?
The gradient midsole provides both a visual aesthetic and contributes to the shoe's cushioning and energy return properties. The specific colour transition (e.g., Mint-to-Pink) is primarily a design feature.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the engineered mesh upper is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. They are suitable for dry conditions and light moisture, but not for running in heavy rain or through puddles.
Troubleshooting
Slight discomfort during initial wear
This is normal for new shoes. Wear them for short periods to allow them to break in and mold to your foot shape. Ensure the lacing is not too tight or too loose.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
While designed for varied terrain, performance on very slick or wet surfaces may be reduced. Clean the outsole regularly to ensure optimal tread contact. For extremely wet conditions, consider shoes with specialized wet-traction outsoles.
Laces coming undone during a run
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. If the lace material is particularly smooth, consider replacing them with laces that offer more friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care:
To maintain the condition and performance of your Reebok Floatzig Tread Trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and dust from the engineered mesh and overlays. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Clean the soles with water and a mild soap solution. A toothbrush can be useful for scrubbing tougher dirt from the tread.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
