1. Introduction
This manual provides essential information for the proper use, care, and maintenance of your Reebok Women's RB195 Leelap Work Safety Toe Shoes. These shoes are designed to offer athletic performance technologies combined with critical safety features for demanding work environments.
Key features include:
- Steel Toe Protection
- Electrical Hazard Protection
- Removable EVA Cushion Insert with Sponge-Rubber Heel Wedge
- Suede Leather Upper with No Exposed Metal
2. Setup and Initial Use
Before using your Reebok RB195 Leelap Work Safety Toe Shoes, please follow these steps to ensure proper fit and comfort:
- Unpacking: Remove the shoes from their packaging. Inspect them for any visible damage or manufacturing defects.
- First Fit: Try on both shoes with the type of socks you typically wear for work. Ensure there is adequate space around your toes, especially the steel toe cap, and that your heel feels secure without slipping.
- Lacing: Lace the shoes securely but not too tightly. Adjust the lacing to provide a snug fit that supports your foot without causing pressure points.
- Break-in Period: It is recommended to wear the shoes for shorter periods initially to allow them to conform to your feet. This helps prevent discomfort during extended wear.

3. Operating (Usage)
These safety shoes are designed for use in environments requiring foot protection. Always ensure the shoes are properly laced and fitted before beginning work.
- Safety Toe: The steel toe cap provides protection against impact and compression hazards.
- Electrical Hazard (EH) Protection: The shoes are constructed to reduce the flow of electricity through the shoe to the ground, providing a secondary source of protection on dry surfaces. EH protective footwear is not intended for use in environments where conductive elements are present.
- Comfort Features: The removable EVA cushion insert and sponge-rubber heel wedge are designed for all-day comfort. These can be removed for cleaning or replacement if desired.

4. Maintenance and Care
Proper maintenance extends the life and effectiveness of your safety shoes.
- Cleaning Suede: For the suede leather upper, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner according to its instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, which can damage the material.
- Drying: If shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can cause the leather to crack or shrink.
- Insoles: The removable EVA cushion inserts can be taken out and air-dried or hand-washed with mild soap and water if needed. Ensure they are completely dry before reinserting.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect your shoes for signs of wear, especially the sole and toe area. Replace shoes if the protective features are compromised or if the sole shows significant wear, which could affect slip resistance.
5. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Reebok RB195 Leelap Work Safety Toe Shoes, consider the following:
- Discomfort or Improper Fit:
- Ensure you are wearing appropriate work socks.
- Adjust lacing for a more secure or relaxed fit.
- Consider if the shoe size or width is correct for your foot. Refer to the size guide in Section 6.
- Allow for a break-in period.
- Reduced Slip Resistance:
- Clean the soles regularly to remove accumulated dirt or debris.
- Inspect the sole for excessive wear. Worn-out soles should be replaced.
- Material Wear and Tear:
- Minor scuffs on suede can often be brushed out.
- If the upper material or stitching shows significant damage that compromises the shoe's integrity or safety features, replacement is recommended.
