Product Information
Full details
The Reebok Viva Speed trainers are designed for beginner runners and those seeking a reliable, daily-use shoe for fitness routines. These trainers offer a plush, cushioned experience thanks to their specialized EVA midsole, though they are primarily optimized for moderate daily training rather than high-intensity competitive racing. Featuring a breathable polyester construction and a high-contrast aesthetic, these shoes provide the essential balance of comfort, grip, and durability needed to establish a consistent running practice.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Viva Speed trainers are constructed from breathable polyester, which is designed for airflow rather than water resistance.
Can I use these for heavy gym weightlifting?
While stable, these are designed as running trainers with cushioned midsoles. They may feel soft during heavy squats or deadlifts.
How should I clean the white sections of the shoe?
Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild soap solution with a soft cloth to gently lift stains from the white material.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The Viva Speed features a regular fit; if you typically require wide-width shoes, consider trying a half-size larger for extra room.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300-500 miles, or when you notice significant compression in the midsole cushioning.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone during runs
Use a double knot or ensure the laces are pulled tight through all eyelets to maintain a consistent fit.
Accumulated dirt on the fabric
Allow the mud to dry completely before brushing it off with a soft-bristled brush, then wipe with a damp cloth.
Feeling of decreased cushioning
Check if the factory insole has shifted; remove and re-insert the insole to ensure it is sitting flat within the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Viva Speed trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes follow standard UK sizing; ensure you select the appropriate fit for your foot shape to maximize the benefit of the lace closure.
- Break-in: While the trainers are comfortable out of the box, perform short walks before initiating full running sessions to let the materials adapt to your stride.
- Cleaning: Gently spot clean the polyester upper with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals to protect the midsole integrity.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent premature aging of the rubber outsole and fabric fading.
