FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for professional basketball?
While they feature heritage performance tech like Hexalite, this low-top model is primarily designed for casual and lifestyle wear rather than professional athletic use.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
You should have approximately a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe, with a secure heel lock.
Does the leather stretch over time?
Genuine leather will naturally soften and stretch slightly to accommodate your foot shape after a few wears.
Is this a unisex model?
This specific variant is sized for men, but the design is aesthetic-forward and can be worn by anyone provided the sizing conversion is accounted for.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the integrity of the adhesive bonding the sole, leading to premature wear.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing at the toe box
Use cedar shoe trees when not wearing to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep creases.
Squeaking sound while walking
Check if the insoles have shifted; remove and reseat them, or sprinkle a small amount of talcum powder beneath the insole.
Scuff marks on the white sections
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a white eraser for light scuffs to restore the original appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Reebok Hurrikaze II Low OG trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in period: The leather upper may feel stiff initially; wear them for short durations to allow the material to mold to your foot.
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. Clean the leather surface with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh chemicals that can crack or discolour the finish.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather drying and fading.
- Lacing: Ensure the laces are adjusted to provide a secure lockdown without cutting off circulation to ensure proper support during use.
