FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball?

What makes the cushioning system special?

How does the carbon-infused plate improve performance?
The carbon-infused plate is strategically placed to provide stiffness and leverage for explosive take-offs, helping you generate more power during jumps and sprints.
Is this shoe suitable for players who need ankle support?
Yes, the mid-top design, comfort collar, lock-down heel, and mid-foot wrap are specifically engineered to provide enhanced stability and support for players who require it.
Are these trainers vegan-friendly?
Yes, the Skechers SKX REIGN trainers are constructed using textile and synthetic materials, making them a vegan option.
How should I clean my Skechers SKX REIGN trainers?
Spot clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid machine washing. Ensure they are air-dried away from heat.
What is the primary benefit of the Goodyear® Performance Outsole?
The Goodyear® Performance Outsole provides superior grip and exceptional durability, ensuring reliable traction on basketball courts and longevity for the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight after first wear
Loosen the laces slightly, especially around the mid-foot wrap, and wear for a short period. The materials are designed to flex and adapt.
Traction seems reduced on dusty courts
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth or use a soft brush to remove dust buildup. Traction will improve once clean.
Cushioning feels too firm initially
The HYPER BURST® midsole requires a short break-in period. Continue wearing them for practice sessions; the cushioning will become more responsive.
Slight squeaking sound during movement
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Ensure laces are tied appropriately. The sound often diminishes with continued use.
