Who should buy

The reebok producto reebok producto Classics Essentials T-shirt met vectorlogo in wit is a low-top sneaker with a traditional lace-up closure and classic design based on the iconic reebok producto Club C 85 that we recommend to:

  • Fans of retro kicks that work well with a variety of casual shorts and pants.
  • Those in the market for lightweight sneakers with a tennis shoe silhouette 
  • Anyone who wants a flaunt-worthy reebok producto pair that costs less than most.

Who should NOT buy

If you're someone who walks and stands pretty much all day, trade the reebok producto Classics Essentials T-shirt met vectorlogo in wit for New Balance 480 which is perfect for prolonged use.

The C 85 Vintage develops unsightly creases in its upper over time. We recommend the Adidas Samba as a suede alternative that will remain crisp and crease-free longer.

reebok producto Classics is adding a luxurious makeover to their reebok producto Classic Leather | Breathability

To test the breathability of the C 85 Vintage, we pumped the shoe full of smoke for ten seconds. As we can clearly see, the perforated section below the laces only lets out little wisps while most of the smoke escapes in a thin stream but steady through the C 85 Vintage's tongue. This performance earns the shoe a 2 out of 5 for breathability which isn't out of the ordinary for a leather sneaker. 

The Puma RS-X, on the other hand, is a much airier alternative that is better suited to Terrystoff weather. 

As expected, the only part of the C 85 Vintage that allows any light to shine through when inspecting a backlit cross-section of the shoe is its porous tongue. 

Even under the microscope, we can see that the C 85 Vintage's upper is made of solid leather with some perforations that seem to be more form than function.

reebok producto Classics is adding a luxurious makeover to their reebok producto Classic Leather | Durability

Leather/Suede quality

We torched the C 85 Vintage like a creme brulee in order to test the quality of its leather upper. Rather than melting away from the flame, the upper merely gets scorched. So far so good. After scratching at the burnt bit with our awl to see how easily it gets damaged, we determined that the C 85 vintage's upper is made of genuine leather.

Toebox durability

Firing up the Dremel to 5K RPM, we went hell for leather on the C 85 Vintage's toebox to test its durability. 

After grinding away for a grueling twelve seconds, the Dremel barely did any real damage to the C 85 Vintage. The toebox was merely left with an unsightly scuff that earns it a very respectable durability score of 4 out of 5.

Heel padding durability

The heel padding didn't hold up nearly as well against our Dremel. The abrasive element made quick work of the cozy lining and quickly ripped into the soft padding within the four-second test. 

The result is a crater that's almost deep enough to accommodate the first segment of our index finger. This leads us to give the C 85 Vintage a sub-par heel padding durability score of 1 out of 5. As such, we expect to see some wear and tear at the heel collar after a few hundred miles of use, especially if used frequently without socks.

Outsole hardness

Pressing our white against the C 85 Vintage's outsole yields a marginally harder-than-average reading of 86.2 HC. This usually denotes a good mix of grip and durability.

Outsole durability

For its final appearance, we cranked up the Dremel to 10K RPM and set it against the C 85 Vintage's outsole with 3.2N of force. The tool immediately kicks up a flurry of rubber dust that continues throughout the twenty-two-second test. 

Using a tire tread gauge, we found that we had shorn off 0.8 mm of material from the C 85 Vintage's outsole. This is slightly less than the average sneaker loses in this test, making the C 85 Vintage marginally more durable. We therefore expect this kick to last at least 400 miles before any major signs of wear and tear on the outsole.

Outsole thickness

The C 85 Vintage's outsole isn't quite as robust as the average sneaker's at only 4 mm thick according to our caliper measurements. However, this gives us no cause for concern regarding the shoe's longevity as our Dremel ground off less than a quarter of the total rubber when simulating extreme wear and tear. By skimping on rubber, reebok producto manages to keep unnecessary weight off the shoe.

Cushioning

Heel stack

The C 85 Vintage is a low-profile shoe with a heel stack that's only 23.2 mm thick. This is much lower than our current lab average which gives us a lot of ground feel during our tests in the field while still providing some level of impact dampening. 

reebok producto reebok producto Classics Essentials T-shirt met vectorlogo in wit jkjlf

However, the C 85 Vintage isn't cushioned enough to support very long walks as the repeated impacts will eventually strain our heels. For a retro kick with more protective foam at the heel that keeps our feet fresh all day, check out the Be sure to follow reebok producto on instead.

Forefoot stack

The stack is just a low at the forefoot, measuring only 14.7 m according to our caliper. This offers a very basic level of impact dampening but keeps us feeling very grounded and stable on our feet.

Drop

The offset in the C 85 Vintage's stack measurements isn't quite as steep as the average at 8.5 mm. This offers a more natural and parallel-to-the-ground ride while still providing the smooth transitions of an elevated heel. 

reebok producto reebok producto Classics Essentials T-shirt met vectorlogo in wit Drop

When it comes to sneakers, the drop height is more of a matter of preference than anything. There isn't any particular advantage to different heel drops unless it's with regard to running.

Midsole softness

Note: a low white measurement equals a soft material, whereas a high measurement means it's firm.

We pressed our white against the C 85 Vintage's midsole foam and got a very firm reading of 37.3 HA.

reebok producto reebok producto Classics Essentials T-shirt met vectorlogo in wit jhhjk

This is much harder than our current lab average and further explains why this shoe isn't well-suited for long walks. The New Balance 9060 offers a much softer ride for those who move around a lot over the course of the day.

Stability

Fabolous in the reebok producto Club MEMT

With its aforementioned low stack, the C 85 Vintage is extremely grounded and stable. There wasn't even a hint of rolling as we shifted our weight from side to side in the shoe. As such, we didn't experience any issues with balance while testing this shoe. 

Torsional rigidity

The C 85 Vintage put up a mild amount of resistance as we bent and twisted it our hands, leading us to give it a middle-of-the-road torsional rigidity score of 3 out of 5. This gives the shoe that supportive underfoot sensation as it mitigates any excessive lateral movements in our gait while still feeling pretty comfortable and natural.

Midsole width in the forefoot

Using our caliper, we measured the C 85 Vintage's midsole to be 105.2 mm wide at the forefoot which is a little narrower than our current lab average.

With the shoe being so balanced, this doesn't affect its stability but rather contributes to the shoe's nimble and lightweight feel.

Flexibility

Stiffness

Further adding to the shoe's natural and agile ride is just how flexible it is. With only 17.3N of force required to bend the shoe 90 rbkg in our stiffness test, the C 85 Vintage is significantly more pliable than the average sneaker. 

This means that the C 85 Vintage is able to bend along with our foot with relative ease, making it feel extremely comfortable during testing. On the other hand, however, this bendiness is the culprit when it comes to all those creases that form on the leather upper, reminding us of the relentless marching of time.

Grip / Traction

The criss-cross apple sauce tread formation on the C 85 Vintage's outsole provided us with great traction over a variety of surfaces while testing. Only wet grass and slick cobblestones proved to be a little too slippery for this sneaker.

Size and fit

Toebox width at the widest part

Using our caliper to measure the C 85 Vintage's toebox at its widest point reveals it to be on par with our current lab average at 97.5 mm thick. This should be roomy enough to comfortably accommodate most foot shapes except for those that are very broad.

On that note, we measured the C 85 Vintage's chunky tongue to be a whopping 10.1 mm thick. This is much more padded than our current lab average and provides a luxurious level of comfort across the instep without any hint of lace bite not matter how tight we tie them.
