Product Information
Full details
The Reebok Floatzig Tread Basket trainers in White/Black, UK 9.5, are designed for runners seeking a versatile shoe that smoothly transitions from urban streets to light gravel paths. Their key benefit is the Zig energy-return system providing a springy, cushioned ride, while a potential caveat is the specific suitability for light gravel rather than rugged off-road terrain. Key features include an engineered mesh upper for breathability, structured overlays for support, a signature Zig cushioning, and a heel clip for stability.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
Yes, the Zig energy-return system and cushioned ride make them suitable for moderate to long distances, especially on mixed terrain. For extremely long ultra-marathons, personal preference and specific cushioning needs may vary.
Can I wear these for trail running?
They are designed for *light* trail running, meaning packed dirt or gravel paths. They are not intended for technical trails with large rocks, roots, or significant mud.
How do I clean the white engineered mesh upper?
Use a soft brush or cloth with cool water and a mild soap. Gently scrub the mesh and wipe clean. Always air dry.
What is the benefit of the heel clip?
The integrated heel clip provides enhanced rearfoot stability, which is particularly beneficial when transitioning between different surfaces or running on uneven ground.
Do these shoes come in other colours?
Yes, the Floatzig Tread series is available in various colour combinations. Please check product listings for available options.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Typically, athletic footwear comes with a manufacturer's warranty against defects. Please refer to the retailer's or manufacturer's official warranty information for specific details.
How do the structured overlays contribute to performance?
The structured overlays provide targeted support and help to lock down the foot securely, improving stability and durability without adding excessive weight.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure laces are not overly tightened. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if a different lacing technique might help.
Reduced cushioning effect
Over time, cushioning can naturally decrease. Ensure you are not running in excessively wet conditions, which can impact foam performance. Clean any debris from the outsole.
Discomfort on longer runs
Break in the shoes gradually. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks. Consider if the shoe's support features are suitable for your gait.
