FAQs
Can I wash my Reebok Glide Ripple sneakers in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can ruin the suede material and affect the adhesive bonds of the shoe.
Is this shoe suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for casual lifestyle use and do not provide the technical support or cushioning required for running.
What is the best way to remove dry mud from the suede?
Allow the mud to dry completely, then use a stiff-bristled suede brush to gently lift and remove the dried dirt.
How do I know if the UK 5.5 size will fit me?
The Reebok Glide Ripple fits true to size with a medium width. If you usually wear a standard UK 5.5, this size should provide a comfortable fit.
Can the insoles be replaced with orthotics?
Yes, if necessary, the original insoles can typically be removed to accommodate custom orthotic inserts.
Troubleshooting
Visible water or dirt stains on the suede
Use a suede eraser or a dedicated suede cleaning kit to gently buff away surface marks without damaging the nap.
Laces becoming undone frequently
Ensure the laces are threaded properly and consider a double-knot technique for a more secure hold.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Reebok Glide Ripple trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before first use to create a protective barrier.
- Cleaning: Use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt and debris. Do not machine wash or immerse in water.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading of the blue suede.
- Moisture Control: If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, which can shrink or harden the materials.
