Overview

Reebok styled the Royal high top after its eighties and nineties high tops, with a leather and mesh upper and a tall collar for ankle support. An EVA midsole and a removable Ortholite sock liner add cushioning.

Classic styling, wide sizing and cushioning make it an easy everyday sneaker that can still handle pickup games and the gym. It is not water resistant, so wet days are not its strength.

Who it's for

Men who like retro court style and need wide sizes up to the larger range. Serious players wanting advanced cushioning and support should look at current performance models.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Removable cushioned sock liner

  • High collar supports the ankle
  • Extra wide sizes available
Cons
  • Not water resistant
  • Leather upper needs care
  • Weight higher than low tops

Performance notes

Ankle stability comes from the high-cut collar, while cushioning depends on the EVA midsole and Ortholite liner. The abrasion-resistant rubber resists wear on courts, gym floors and pavement.
