Before becoming everyday sneakers, the Club C was played on tennis courts and the Classic Leather was for running: the Reebok to give for Christmas keep this sporty past in a everyday style.
Men's, women's, and children's models share the page, in leather, suede, or mesh.
The Classic Leather was launched in the early 1980s as a running shoe, featuring a soft leather upper, which was rare for running shoes at the time. Its simple design helped it transition from the track to the street. On the page, it is available in black and white, alongside models like the Classic AZ for women.
The Club C was released in the mid-1980s for everyday players on the courts. Its white upper and flat sole made it a sneaker that goes with everything, from jeans to tracksuits. The Club C Double Revenge takes the spirit in a women's cut.
The Workout Plus comes from the gyms of the late 1980s and is recognized by its H strap on the side of the foot. It's available here in suede, in black, pink or white, and in children's sizes. It's the Reebok to give to someone who likes a slightly more robust style.
Alongside the classics, Reebok offers models with a more recent design: the Premier Road in black or white, the Hammer Street with a gum sole, the Ultra Lo for women or the F/S Lo. They appeal to those who want an original sneaker without compromising everyday comfort.
The page features junior models, from the Workout Plus in suede to the BB4500 Court, and even a court shoe, the Campio XT. For a child, a soft sole and an easy-to-slip-on shoe often matter more than the style.
A gifted sneaker needs to be the right fit. Look at the size of a pair the person often wears, preferably in the same brand, and compare it to the product sheet size guide. Leather adapts a bit to the foot, while suede and mesh do much less.
For comparison, check out the sneakers from the lifestyle adidas, the chevrons of the lifestyle Hummel or the archive models from Reebok Classics. The page lifestyle de Noël brings these brands together in one place.
The special shoe offers and the special lifestyle offers gather the sneakers on promotion. After the holidays, the lifestyle sales follow.
The Classic Leather and the Club C are the safe bets: simple lines, neutral colours, they go with almost everything. If the person already has a white pair, consider a black or suede version.
Filter the page by gender and age to compare models. The clearance shoes also include end-of-line items.
A soft brush and a bit of soapy water are enough for the leather. Let them air dry, away from a radiator, to avoid the leather cracking.
For a light workout, a Workout Plus is fine, that's even its origin. For handball, you need a proper indoor shoe that provides more stability.
Suede is sensitive to water. A waterproof spray applied before the first use protects them, and a suede brush restores their appearance after drying.
