FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the SKX REIGN™ trainers?
The primary benefit is their engineered design for a quick first step, speed, and intense traction on the basketball court.
What kind of cushioning technology is used?
They feature a resilient Skechers HYPER BURST PRO™ sock liner and a dual-density Skechers HYPER BURST® midsole for responsive and comfortable cushioning.
Is there anything that helps with explosive movement?
Yes, a carbon-infused plate is integrated into the midsole to assist with explosive take-offs.
What makes the outsole special?
The outsole is a Goodyear® Performance Outsole, designed for superior grip and long-lasting durability on court surfaces.
Who is this shoe designed for?
It is designed for adult male basketball players who prioritize speed, a quick first step, and stable footing.
Can these shoes be used for outdoor basketball?
These trainers are specifically engineered for indoor basketball courts and are not recommended for outdoor use, which can lead to premature wear and reduced performance.
How do I maintain the grip on the outsole?
Regularly clean the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris that can affect traction.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a snug but not overly restrictive fit. If still too tight, consider if this is the correct size or if break-in is needed.
Traction is reduced
Clean the outsole using a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dust or debris. Ensure the court surface is clean.
Midsole feels stiff initially
This is normal for advanced cushioning systems. Wear the shoes for a few sessions to allow them to break in and conform to your foot.
Discomfort around the ankle
Verify that the laces are adjusted correctly, particularly around the ankle collar, to provide support without excessive pressure. Ensure the heel lock-down is engaged properly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. For interior lining, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water if necessary. Allow to air dry completely.
- Drying: Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials. Stuffing with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.

- Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can compromise the structural integrity and materials of the shoe.
