FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Reebok Glide is designed as a lifestyle trainer for everyday wear and walking, not as a specialized running shoe.
How do I determine my size?
These trainers use standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your regular sneaker size.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, washing machine immersion can damage the leather and the adhesives used in the construction. Stick to manual wiping.
Is the leather genuine?
Yes, the Reebok Glide features durable leather materials designed for longevity.
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the leather is more water-resistant than mesh fabrics, they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in deep water.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather toe box
This is common with leather footwear; use shoe trees when not wearing to help maintain the shape.
Difficulty putting on
Ensure the laces are fully loosened before inserting your foot to prevent undue stress on the heel counter.
Slight discomfort during first wear
Leather requires a break-in period; wear the trainers for short durations initially to allow the material to conform to your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Reebok Glide trainers maintain their appearance and structure, keep the following care tips in mind:
- Cleaning: Wipe down the leather exterior with a damp, soft cloth to remove surface dirt and dust.
- Moisture Protection: If the shoes get wet, air-dry them at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as these can cause the leather to crack.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Maintenance: Consider using a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent scuffing.
