Key features include authentic '70s design, a nylon and suede upper, a low-profile silhouette, and a textured outsole for grip.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and retro style. While they offer comfort for everyday activities, they are not engineered with the advanced support and cushioning required for marathon running.

How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Always allow suede to air dry completely.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the nylon provides some resistance, the suede is not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. It is recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. Using a suede protector spray can offer some water repellency.

What does 'Classic AZ' stand for?

The 'AZ' in Classic AZ likely refers to the specific design lineage or inspiration, often referencing vintage Reebok running shoe models like the Aztec.

Are these trainers true to size?

Generally, these trainers are considered true to size. However, fit can vary slightly between individuals. It is recommended to consult the size chart and consider trying them on if possible.

What is the primary material used in these trainers?

The trainers feature a combination of nylon and suede for the upper, contributing to their retro aesthetic and feel.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears scuffed or dirty.

Gently brush the affected area with a suede brush in one direction. For tougher marks, use a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth followed by brushing once dry.

Laces are difficult to tie or come undone.

Ensure laces are threaded through eyelets correctly. Try a different knotting technique, such as a double knot, for added security.

Shoes feel slightly stiff initially.

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your feet. Walking around indoors can help expedite this process.

Discoloration on nylon areas.

Wipe with a mild soap and water solution using a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
