Full details

FAQs

Are the Reebok Club C 85 shoes waterproof?

While the leather upper is water-resistant, these shoes are not classified as waterproof and should not be submerged in water or used in heavy rain.

Can I use these for running?

No, the Club C 85 is a lifestyle trainer. It lacks the advanced foam cushioning and support systems required for running or high-impact training.

How do I ensure I order the correct size?

These trainers generally fit true to size. If you are between sizes or prefer extra room for thicker socks, consider ordering a half-size up.

Do these shoes provide good arch support?

They feature a standard, flat-profile footbed. Users needing specific orthotic support may wish to swap the factory insole with an aftermarket orthotic insert.

How often should I clean the leather?

It is recommended to wipe them down after each use if they have been exposed to dirt or salt to prevent the leather from cracking.

Troubleshooting

Stiffness when first wearing the shoes

Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations indoors to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot.

Scuff marks on the leather

Use a matching black leather polish or cream to buff out minor scuffs and restore the uniform color of the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Reebok Club C 85 trainers stay in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
  2. Maintenance: For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth.
  3. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from drying out or discoloring.
  4. Fitment: These are true to size; however, ensure you wear socks of an appropriate thickness to match your comfort preference during the initial break-in phase.
