FAQs

What does 'OG' in the product name mean?

'OG' stands for 'Original Gangster' and typically refers to an original or classic colorway and design of a sneaker.

How do I know my correct UK shoe size?

Refer to a standard UK to US or UK to EU shoe size conversion chart. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the brand's sizing guide.

Are these shoes suitable for professional basketball games?

While designed with basketball in mind and featuring cushioning, they are a reissue of a classic model. Professional athletes often use modern shoes with advanced, specific technologies. These are excellent for recreational play and training.

Can the leather and nubuck be waterproofed?

You can use specific waterproofing sprays designed for leather and nubuck. Always test on an inconspicuous area first and follow the product's instructions.

What is Hexalite cushioning?

Hexalite is a cushioning technology developed by Reebok, known for its hexagonal honeycomb structure that provides shock absorption and comfort.

How do I clean the nubuck material?

Use a specialized nubuck eraser or a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a dedicated nubuck cleaner, applying it sparingly with a cloth.

What is the difference between Hurrikaze II and Kamikaze 2?

The Hurrikaze II and Kamikaze 2 refer to the same shoe model, often used interchangeably in different regions or marketing contexts. This specific model is a reissue of the popular Kamikaze II.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Break in the shoes by wearing them for short periods initially. Loosen the laces to create more space.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or between the tongue and laces.

Dirt or scuff marks on leather

Use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft cloth to gently remove marks. For deeper scuffs, a leather conditioner or color restorer might be needed.

Laces wear out

Replace laces with a similar length and material. Many athletic stores offer replacement laces.
