FAQs
Are the Reebok Club C 85 trainers true to size?
Most users find that these trainers fit true to standard adult sizing, though the leather structure provides a snug feel initially.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, it is highly recommended to clean these leather trainers by hand. Machine washing can permanently damage the leather and compromise the adhesive.
Is the sole suitable for walking long distances?
Yes, the EVA midsole provides sufficient cushioning for long city walks and daily urban navigation.
What is the primary material used in the upper?
The upper is constructed from premium leather with a matte, buffed surface finish.
Does the colour fade easily?
The Black and Grey tones are durable, though the character of the matte finish will evolve slightly as it develops a patina over time.
Are these shoes suitable for high-intensity sports?
While based on a 1985 court design, these are lifestyle trainers and are not intended for high-intensity athletic performance or specialized court sports.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface appearing dull or scuffed
Gently buff the leather with a soft horsehair brush or a leather conditioner designed for matte finishes to restore the texture.
Shoes feeling stiff during initial wear
Wear them for short periods around the house to allow the leather to flex and soften to your foot's shape.
Dirt buildup in the outsole grooves
Use a stiff-bristled brush to dislodge debris, then wipe the rubber clean with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Club C 85 trainers last, follow these guidelines for maintenance and care:
- Initial Protection: Apply a leather-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first wear to protect the buffed surface.
- Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher marks, use a damp cloth with mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals that could damage the matte finish.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can crack or warp the leather.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees if possible to help the trainers maintain their shape between wears.
