FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are designed primarily for casual, daily wear and walking. They are not intended for high-intensity running or specialized sports performance.
How do I ensure I get the right UK size?
Since sizing can vary between international labels (US/Euro), ensure you consult a standard conversion chart or verify the UK size on the packaging label before use.
Can these be worn in the rain?
While the leather upper offers some protection, they are not waterproof. We recommend applying a leather-safe water-repellent spray if you plan to wear them in damp conditions.
How do I clean the white sections if applicable?
Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild soap and water solution on a soft cloth, scrubbing gently to avoid damaging the synthetic overlays.
Are the insoles removable?
The Reebok Glide typically features a standard interior construction; however, if you use custom orthotics, ensure they fit within the internal volume of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight around the midfoot.
Adjust the lace tension by loosening the laces starting from the eyelets closest to your toes to create more volume.
Outsole loses grip over time.
Check the tread for debris or buildup. Use a soft brush to remove small stones or compacted dirt from the vintage tread pattern.
Leather surface appearing dull or dry.
Apply a small amount of clear leather conditioner to restore moisture and shine to the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Reebok Glides maintain their appearance and structure, proper care is essential.
- Initial Fit: Always try on your trainers indoors on a clean surface before use to ensure the sizing is correct, as labels may reflect different international sizing standards.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, apply a leather-safe cleaner to a damp cloth and gently wipe the upper. Avoid soaking the leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading.
- Maintenance: Periodically treat the leather with a suitable conditioning balm to keep the material supple and prevent water damage.
