FAQs
Are the Reebok Floatzig 2 suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the Floatzig 2 are designed with maximum impact protection and energy return, making them suitable for long-distance running like marathons, provided they fit well and offer sufficient comfort for your individual needs.
What type of running surface are these trainers best for?
These trainers are engineered primarily for road running, including asphalt and concrete. They can handle light use on other surfaces but perform best on traditional running paths.
How do I clean my Floatzig 2 trainers?
Clean the trainers by spot cleaning with a mild soap and water solution using a soft cloth or brush. Allow them to air dry naturally away from heat sources.
What is the main benefit of the Zig midsole?
The Zig midsole is designed to absorb vertical impact and convert it into forward momentum, providing both significant cushioning and a responsive, energetic feel with each stride.
Do I need to break in these shoes?
It is recommended to wear the Floatzig 2 for shorter periods initially to allow your feet to adapt to the unique cushioning and support system. Most users find them comfortable after a brief break-in phase.
Can I use these shoes for gym workouts?
While the shoes offer good support, their primary design is for running. For specific gym activities that require lateral stability, dedicated training shoes might be more appropriate. However, for general fitness or cardio within a gym setting, they can be used.
What makes the upper supportive?
The technical mesh upper is reinforced with dynamic overlays that provide targeted support precisely where your foot needs it during the running motion.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing during initial wear
This is often due to the break-in period. Wear the shoes for shorter runs initially and gradually increase mileage. Ensure laces are tied appropriately for a secure but not overly tight fit.
Slipping heel
Try adjusting the lacing pattern, using a heel-lock lacing technique, or ensuring you have the correct shoe size. The overlays are designed for support, but proper lacing is key.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
While the Zig midsole is durable, cushioning can degrade with extensive use. Ensure you are not exceeding the intended lifespan of the shoe for optimal performance. Check for any debris trapped in the midsole.
Upper material feels restrictive
Ensure the laces are not overtightened. The technical mesh is designed to be supportive; a proper lacing technique should provide support without undue pressure.
