Troubleshooting
Sizing seems incorrect.
Refer to Reebok's official sizing chart for trainers and compare it with your foot measurements. Note that vintage or collaborative models can sometimes have slightly different fits.
Nubuck material looks dull or dirty.
Use a specialized nubuck cleaner and a soft brush to restore the texture and appearance. Ensure the cleaner is suitable for grey nubuck and follow the product instructions precisely. Allow to dry naturally.
Yellow stripes are fading.
Avoid harsh cleaning agents. Gently wipe the stripes with a slightly damp cloth. For protection, consider using a fabric protector spray designed for footwear, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Comfort seems lower than expected.
Ensure the laces are tied correctly to provide adequate support. If the issue persists, consider using aftermarket insoles designed for trainers, which can add extra cushioning or arch support.
