Reebok Men's Classic Leather Sneaker

Comment

In terms of looks, you cannot go wrong with these Reeboks. I love the way they look. However there are 2 major drawbacks, but first lets look at the pros. First off the styling...I just cannot explain how much I love the look (I had the ice version but love the gum outsole look) since its so classic looking and classics are timeless. I love all white sneakers because they look great with almost any outfit. The only problem is keeping them clean so every once in a while I throw my white sneaks in the washer with bleach...but this is true of any white sneakers. The materials used are nice as well and they feel durable. I like the outsole because the way it is designed it really helps prevent slipping. I wear these shoes loose so its always nice to have a grip on the wet ground. The perforated toe is also nice too while adding a pretty decent amount of water proofing since it is a leather upper. I also paid $46 for these shoes so I am happy with them and because of the price I gave these shoes an extra star. Now onto the two main issues: comfort and cushioning. Now these two might sound the same but they are not...at least not to me. Cushioning refers to how well the shoes return energy and how they absorb shock. Comfort refers to how they fit your feet and whether or not you can go sockless or no-show. The cushioning is basically non-existent. Ive seen some Reebok Classic models that actually incorporated a much softer midsole in addition to memory foam insoles...these shoes feel like walking on thick cardboard. They can at times be really painful to walk in. Ive literally put in over 100 miles of walking in these shoes and my legs and knees were painful. The midsole is really firm and basically hard. I didnt expect to run in these shoes (please dont...they will kill your knees and ankles) but at least allow me to walk in comfort with these. Secondly, dont bother doing no show socks or sockless...these shoes will not give you that. The inner ankle bone area of my left foot was bleeding due to the chafing. Blood got on the inside of my shoe and I was wearing no show socks too. There is no lining inside the shoe so these shoes are definitely meant to be worn with socks...even though these classic styling shoes (even the cheaper ones) all have some type of inner lining to prevent chafing. The tongue itched my ankles like crazy when I wore no shows so I had to position the tongue past the first two rows of lacing so when I tie my shoes the ends are underneath the tongue. Hard to explain without a picture, but essentially these shoes will have to be worn with ankle high socks...which was disappointing. So all in all, they are nice shoes but they have to be comfortable...I really want to return them but I also hate returning worn shoes. So I may keep them or sell them on eBay.

Normally I fit 8.5 true to size but this time Id try to half size up because these would be my beaters and Im 17 still growing and when I got them they feel fit like an 8.5. Still satisfied with what came in looks amazing just a little size problem. If youre gonna go true to size, go half up. ;)

Not sure if these are fake but they ain’t that bad. The shoes feel a bit different than my other Reebok’s / different factory # / different region #/ different logo / different sole quality / etc / etc / but on today’s market is difficult to spot the fakes from the real ones. Price was decent. compared to all the discounts and sales going on at the moment. but these ain’t adidas nor Nike’s so i ain’t gonna panic . I’ll keep them.

These fit because I ordered a half size larger than my "normal" shoe size. I ordered my regular size earlier, and they were too narrow and tight, hurting my feet.

First off they are miss sized badly. Dam near no cushion . They look like real thing but likely a knock off. Gave them a chance to break in but they just got worse. Can buy better quality shoes at Walmart for half the money. Sending them back. They need investigated for fraud. The trick is get you to wait 30 days. Starting to think Amazon will sell anything. They might fit young boys but not men. As prime members it will cost us nothing and them money. Worst shoe I ever bought. I bought the 10 because of warnings and normally wear 9 and !/2. Plenty of toe room but far too tight and I wear a narrow.
