Full details

FAQs
What is the primary inspiration for the Reebok World 70 Basket Trainers?
The design is inspired by heritage running DNA and archive track designs, offering a classic, low-profile silhouette.
Are these trainers suitable for running or athletic training?
While comfortable for everyday wear and light activity, these trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual use, not for specialized athletic training.
How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
Use a suede brush for dry dirt and a suede eraser for scuffs. For tougher stains, a slightly damp cloth with a mild soap solution can be carefully used, followed by air drying.
What does 'heritage running DNA' mean in the product description?
It refers to the design elements, materials, and silhouette that are characteristic of running shoes from past decades, reimagined for contemporary style.
Can these trainers be worn by men and women?
Yes, the Reebok World 70 Basket Trainers feature a unisex design, making them suitable for all genders.
What is the purpose of the gum rubber outsole?
The gum rubber outsole provides an authentic retro aesthetic while also offering reliable traction and durability for everyday walking.
How do the Athletic Blue and Gold colors feature on the trainers?
The trainers have an Athletic Blue textile upper with tonal suede overlays, and the Athletic Gold details are specifically placed on the midsole and heel for a vibrant accent.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove superficial dirt. For stains, use a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth with a very mild soap solution.
Discoloration on the midsole or gold accents
Gently wipe the affected areas with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
Traction feels reduced
Ensure the gum rubber outsole is clean. Dirt and debris can accumulate and reduce grip. Wipe the sole clean with a damp cloth.
Sizing feels slightly off
Refer to the Reebok sizing chart for accurate measurements. Consider wearing the type of socks you intend to use with the trainers when trying them on.

Compatibility: The unisex design ensures compatibility across different foot shapes for adults. They pair well with a wide range of casual clothing.
Care:
- Cleaning Suede: For suede areas, use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and then a suede eraser for scuffs. For tougher stains, a damp cloth with a mild soap solution can be used, but ensure to test on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry naturally and avoid direct heat.
- Cleaning Textile & Sole: The textile upper and rubber sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. For the midsole, a soft brush can help remove dirt. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
