FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for all types of basketball play?

The SKX REIGN trainers are engineered for intense indoor basketball play, focusing on speed, traction, and stability. They may not be ideal for outdoor courts or other sports.

How do I determine the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the UK sizing guide. For basketball shoes, a snug fit is generally preferred for performance.

What is the benefit of the carbon-infused plate?

The carbon-infused plate is designed to provide stiffness and responsiveness, particularly during take-offs, helping to generate more explosive power for jumps and sprints.

How does the HYPER BURST PRO™ sock liner differ from the HYPER BURST® midsole?

The HYPER BURST PRO™ sock liner offers an additional layer of resilient cushioning directly underfoot, enhancing comfort and responsiveness, while the HYPER BURST® midsole provides the primary responsive cushioning and energy return system.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and the structural integrity of the shoe. Hand clean with a damp cloth as per the care instructions.

What is the expected lifespan of the Goodyear® Performance Outsole?

The outsole is designed for durability, but its lifespan depends heavily on playing frequency, surface type, and playing style. Regular cleaning and proper care can help extend its life.

Is there a warranty for these trainers?

Please refer to Skechers' official warranty policy for details on coverage and duration, as this information can vary.

Troubleshooting

Laces become difficult to tighten

Ensure the eyelets are clear of debris. If the laces themselves are frayed, consider replacing them.

Reduced grip on the court

Clean the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. For persistent issues, the outsole may be worn and require replacement.

Cushioning feels too firm initially

The HYPER BURST® midsole may require a brief break-in period. Wear the shoes for several shorter sessions to allow them to adapt to your foot.

Discomfort around the ankle collar

Adjust the lacing to reduce pressure points. Ensure the lock-down heel feature is not overtightened. Allow for a short break-in period.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Skechers SKX REIGN Trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure laces are tied snugly for optimal support and stability, adjusting the tightness based on your comfort and activity level.

Compatibility: These trainers are specifically designed for basketball court performance. While they offer excellent grip on indoor courts, their traction pattern may be less ideal for outdoor surfaces or general walking.

Care: To maintain the performance and appearance of your SKX REIGN trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a slightly damp cloth. For the interior, use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or excessive sunlight, which can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
