Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If still tight, try wearing thinner socks or wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the materials to stretch slightly.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness
The Hexalite cushioning is designed for durability. If you notice a significant decrease in comfort, it may be due to wear and tear over extended use.
Traction feels slippery
Ensure the outsole is clean. Dirt and debris can accumulate in the tread pattern, reducing grip. Clean the outsole with a brush and water.
Material scuffing easily
The leather and synthetic materials are durable but can scuff. Be mindful of abrasive surfaces. For minor scuffs on leather, a leather conditioner or specific shoe polish might help.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Reebok Kamikaze II OG (2020) trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the leather and synthetic materials with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
- Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a brush or cloth with water and mild soap to clean the sole. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
