What is KineticFit?
KineticFit provides a fit system that accommodates the changes in size and shape of an athlete’s foot as it moves. From impact through toe-off, the foot can change up to half of a shoe size. KineticFit construction makes use of a series of engineered stretch panels positioned in key areas of the shoe. These panels allow the shoe to respond and move naturally with the foot.

What is HexRide?
HexRide, a cushioning technology, was created to provide the athlete with a cushioned, lightweight ride. The midsole of a HexRide shoe is cored out into a pattern of hexagonal recesses. The air inside the hexagonal shapes is sealed in with an impact resistant polymer film to create a lightweight yet very cushioned ride.

What is SmoothFit?
SmoothFit is an upper technology that provides the ultimate in comfortable fit. The construction of SmoothFit is designed from the inside out. All seams are either eliminated or sealed both inside and outside the upper. The goal is to create a fit with minimal potential irritation inside a light, flexible, streamlined aesthetic upper.

What is XStatic?
XStatic is a heat-regulating thermodynamic silver meets an EPA-registered antimicrobial. Together they create an anti-odor, anti-sweat and anti-cold fabric so powerful, it's performance stays true over time. XStatic silver embedded fibers react to the body's temperature, keeping you cool when it's hot and warm when it's cold. Add a powerful antimicrobial to repel odor, into Reebok's signature SmoothFit Premier Running tech tops and suddenly, anything else is just plain old clothing.

What is DMX Foam?
DMX Foam is a proprietary foam formulation that delivers a cushioned ride in a longer lasting, more lively feeling system. DMX Foam is typically more consistent and longer lasting than standard midsole formulations.

What is DMX Shear?
DMX Shear is a cushioning component that works to slow down and distribute the stress at heel strike. On impact, DMX Shear allows the foot to continue forward while slowing the heel of the shoe. The slowing of the heel enables force to be distributed both vertically and horizontally creating less stress on the foot.

What is DMX Max?
DMX Max is a hollow two-pod cushioning system made for the walker seeking the maximum amount of DMX cushioning. Air trapped inside DMX Max travels back and forth under the foot in concert with each walker’s individual stride. This moving cushion of air delivers sensational cushioning and comfort.

What is Hexalite?
Hexalite is a lightweight, honeycomb-shaped cushioning material that provides enhanced shock absorption in areas of peak pressure. The Hexalite technology is 4 times more durable than EVA foam and absorbs up to 23% more energy than the equivalent amount of EVA Foam. Tough urethane film combined with the structural integrity of the honeycomb linkage make it one of the most durable cushioning systems used in footwear.

What is 3D Ultralite?
3D Ultralite is a proprietary foam material engineered to be lightweight, with extra durability and responsiveness. As a result, shoes made with 3D Ultralite are 10-20% lighter than shoes made with conventional construction. The proprietary blend of materials in 3D Ultralite includes EVA, rubber and other compounds. The mix of these materials can be varied to meet the specific needs of different activities. The process of creating 3D Ultralite is based on injection-molding, which creates more uniform, more consistent sole units.

What is PlayDry?
PlayDry is a moisture management system that helps keep you cooler, dryer and more comfortable. This “base layer” moves moisture, accelerates evaporation, increases ventilation and reduces abrasion without trapping the body’s thermal energy. PlayDry is available in a variety of apparel and footwear offerings.

What is PlayShield?
Playshield is an “outer layer” that acts as the final shield against the elements. Breathable linings, friction reducing fabrics, strategic venting and ergonomic construction integrate to maximize the athletic performance in the most inclement weather.

What is PlayWarm?
PlayWarm is a “cover layer” that creates “dead air” space to slow the body’s thermal energy loss, while assisting in the dispersion of moisture initiated by the PlayDry base layer.
