FAQs
Who is the target audience for the Skechers SKX REIGN™ trainers?
These trainers are designed for adult male basketball players who prioritize a quick first step, speed, and intense on-court traction, with an emphasis on stability.
What makes the cushioning system special?
The shoes feature a resilient Skechers HYPER BURST PRO™ sock liner and a dual-density Skechers HYPER BURST® midsole, offering advanced comfort and responsive cushioning for explosive movements.
How does the shoe provide stability?
Stability is enhanced through a comfort collar, a lock-down heel system, and a strategically placed mid-foot wrap, ensuring a secure and locked-in feel during play.
What is the benefit of the carbon-infused plate?
The carbon-infused plate is designed to provide an extra boost for explosive take-offs, helping players achieve greater vertical lift and quicker acceleration.
What type of outsole is used, and why is it important?
The trainers utilize a Goodyear® Performance Outsole, known for its superior grip and long-lasting durability, ensuring reliable traction across various court surfaces.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
While the mid-foot wrap offers some adjustability, the primary fit is designed for standard athletic footwear profiles. Players with significantly wide feet may want to try them on to assess comfort.
What is the recommended care for these trainers?
Clean with a soft, damp cloth and air dry. Avoid direct heat. Ensure laces are adjusted properly for a secure but comfortable fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
The SKX REIGN™ trainers feature performance-enhancing materials that may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially and gradually increase playing time to allow the materials to conform to your foot.
Reduced traction on dusty courts
Court conditions can affect grip. Wipe the outsoles with a damp cloth periodically during play to remove dust buildup and restore optimal traction.
Discomfort in the arch area
Ensure the laces and mid-foot wrap are adjusted correctly. If persistent discomfort occurs, consider using aftermarket insoles designed for athletic footwear, ensuring they are compatible with the shoe's support system.
Squeaking sound during movement
This can sometimes occur with new rubber outsoles or due to moisture. Ensure the shoes are dry. If the sound persists, it might be a normal characteristic of the outsole material.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and grime. For stubborn stains, a mild soap can be used sparingly with a damp cloth, followed by a clean damp cloth to rinse. Allow shoes to air dry completely; avoid direct heat.
- Lacing: Ensure laces are tied securely but not excessively tight to allow for foot expansion during play. Adjust the mid-foot wrap and heel lock as needed for a personalized fit.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid leaving them in damp conditions or inside gym bags for extended periods to prevent odor and material degradation.
