FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for outdoor use?
The Skechers SKX REIGN Trainers are primarily designed for indoor basketball courts to maximize traction and durability on specific surfaces. Extended use on rough outdoor surfaces may accelerate wear and reduce performance.
What is the benefit of the carbon-infused plate?
The carbon-infused plate is engineered to provide stiffness and enhance energy return, contributing to explosive take-offs and improved acceleration during gameplay.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the Skechers sizing chart and measure your foot length. Ensure a snug fit without being too tight, allowing for comfortable movement. The UK size 7.5 is specified for this particular model.
What materials are used in these trainers?
These trainers are constructed with Textile and Synthetic materials. They are also noted as being Vegan.
How does the mid-top design affect performance?
The mid-top design, combined with a comfort collar and lock-down heel, aims to provide enhanced ankle support and a secure fit, which can be beneficial for players prioritizing stability during quick movements.
What is the difference between HYPER BURST PRO™ and HYPER BURST®?
HYPER BURST PRO™ is used for the sock liner, offering a resilient feel, while the dual-density HYPER BURST® midsole provides advanced cushioning and responsive energy return for the entire foot.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method to preserve the integrity of the materials and technology.
Troubleshooting
Traction is reduced on court.
Ensure the Goodyear® Performance Outsole is clean. Wipe away any dust or debris with a damp cloth. Check for excessive wear on the outsole pattern.
Laces do not stay tied.
Try double-knotting the laces. Consider replacing the laces with a pair that has better grip or a different texture.
Foot feels unstable during lateral movements.
Ensure the mid-foot wrap and heel lock-down are properly secured by adjusting the laces. Verify that the correct size has been selected, as an improper fit can lead to instability.
Cushioning feels too firm initially.
The HYPER BURST® midsole may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for a few light sessions to allow the cushioning to adapt to your foot.
