Upper
The upper of the Reebok Combat Noble Trainer is made out of a super comfortable and ultra lightweight jacquard knit combined with Nubuck leather. The jacquard knit part of the upper is ideal for ventilation of the shoe, allowing the air to flow in and out and keep your feet cool and dry while you are training. No one wants to have overheated and damp feet while they are trying to focus on the task at hand. The Nubuck leather that is integrated into the design of the upper helps increase the life of the shoe, as it is very durable, and it helps to enhance the look as well. The beauty of the upper is that it is lightweight and breathable, but still stylish and comfortable.
Midsole
The midsole is made of an EVA foam, which provides you with soft cushioning and fantastic shock absorption. The EVA foam that makes up the midsole ensures you get a little extra cushion for improved responsiveness of the shoe. The Reebok Combat Noble Trainer has just the right amount of cushion and foam to give you a little spring in your step when you are wearing them while still being firm enough to be functional as a weight training shoe.
Outsole
The outsole of the Reebok Combat Noble Trainer is made out of full gum rubber to give the shoe a more natural feel and increased flexibility. The outsole has a raised pivot zone to give you better pivoting movements, which is essential for training. The shoe offers an amazing grip and great traction so you will not have to worry about slipping and falling due to your shoe coming out from underneath you. These shoes are made for various types of training and the outsole stands up to the challenge and keeps you safe and comfortable when transitioning from one activity to another.
Breathability
Reebok boasts about the amazing breathability of the Combat and they live up to the hype. The lightweight jacquard knit upper of the shoe allows for superior airflow to your feet to make sure that you are staying cool and dry. You do not want to be in the middle of a hard training session or a long run and have to worry about your feet overheating or running in damp shoes because of the sweat from your feet. Customers have commented, and love, that these shoes are very airy and are ideal for tough workouts.
Comfort
The design of the Reebok Combat Noble Trainer makes them extremely comfortable. The outsole is made with a flexible rubber material that will allow you to move your feet more freely and comfortably. The cushioning from the EVA foam that makes up the midsole gives your shoes some extra padding to make sure your feet stay happy and comfy, even during the toughest of exercises. Finally, the soft material of the upper and the padded mid collar of the shoe keep your feet snug and pleasant. Customers love the superior comfort they get from training in these shoes.
Style
The Reebok Combat Noble Trainer’s are both stylish and practical. Whether you are looking for a nice pair of trainers to wear while boxing, training, or participating in martial arts or you are looking for something comfortable and casual, these shoes will be perfect for you. The combination of the jacquard knit and Nubuck leather of the upper gives them a snazzy look that customers love. The shoes are available in a couple different colors so you can find something that is going to best fit your sense of style. You can choose from: black, white, and vitamin C (a red color), sandstone, chalk, and ash gray, or ironstone, chalk, and coal. Some customers have commented that they would love to see more color options in the future, but they are satisfied with the colors they do have.

Protection
These shoes do offer a little in the way of protection. First, and most noticeable, is that the mid-top of the shoe offers some ankle protection. The padded collar and the height of the shoe are going to help keep your ankles more stable and help to prevent injury. The shoes have the impressive traction that will aid in protecting you from possible slips and falls, which is nice when you are cross training and moving from one workout to the next.
Responsiveness
These shoes offer you a good and responsive ride. The EVA foam midsole has just the right amount of cushioning that will yield a decent energy return and give you a little extra bounce in your step but at the same time, they are firm enough that they work wonderfully for those that do a lot of weightlifting. These are the perfect mix of cushiony and firm to accommodate all your workout needs.
Support
When it comes to training shoes you are going to want something that is going to give you adequate support when transitioning from one workout to the next. These shoes offer great support in the way of the mid-top collar. The padded collar is high enough that it is going to support your ankles when working out but still allow you the flexibility you need to be able to move around comfortably. It is, however, important to note that these shoes might not be the best fit for those with flatter feet. Customers have commented that the Reebok Combat Noble Trainer’s have high arches and they can be uncomfortable for those who do not need high arched shoes.
Terrain
The Reebok Combat Noble Trainer’s are a training shoe and as such, they are best to be used in a gym setting. These shoes are ideal for combat sports, boxing, martial arts, weight training, and other similar workouts. These shoes can be worn running if that is part of your workout routine, but they might not be the best choice if you are planning to run long distances for long periods of time, as they were not made for that.
Price
The price of the Reebok Combat Noble Trainer is right in the middle range for other similar shoes. The MSRP (manufacturers suggested retail price) of these training shoes is $120, although you may be able to find them cheaper or on sale. The customers who have purchased these shoe were happy with their choice, as these are durable and comfortable and they said that they definitely got their money worth out of them. It is important to keep in mind when purchasing a training shoe, that they are an investment. Yes, they are going to cost you a decent amount of money up front, but if you find a good reliable pair then they are going to last you longer and you will not have to pay that money again for a while.
Drop
The drop of a shoe is simply the difference in the measurements of the heel and the forefront of the shoe. The drop is pretty much the incline of your shoe. The average drop for running shoes is between 8 mm and 12 mm with a majority of them coming in at 10 mm. Unfortunately, there is no information on exactly what the drop is on the Combat Noble Trainer.
Stability
These shoes are a training shoe and as such do not offer too much in the way of stability. They are made more for people with a neutral gait and do not overpronate or supinate (rolling your feet either inward or outward). Customers have commented, however, that these shoes do have high arches so that is something that you should keep in mind when purchasing the Reebok Combat Noble Trainer. You are going to want to make sure you find a shoe that is going to give you the proper stability for your feet to maximize your comfort and minimize the risk of injury.
Flexibility
The construction of the outsole, made with gum rubber, is durable, yet flexible. You are going to want a trainer that is going to allow you the freedom to move your feet more naturally and Reebok delivers with the Combat Noble Trainer. You do not have to worry about these shoes restricting your movements when you are wearing them, they will let you move the way you are meant to move.
Traction
The 3-D pattern on the outsole of the Reebok Combat Noble Trainer makes for great traction and a superior grip. You do not want to have to worry about slipping and sliding around while at the gym and with these trainers you do not have to. You can rest easy knowing that as you are lifting heavy weights over your head or participating in martial arts with a lot of quick movements that your shoes are going to keep you from slipping and potentially injuring yourself.
Bottom Line
If you are in the market for a pair of training shoes that will be able to keep up with your vigorous workouts and transitions from one exercise to another, then you should consider the Reebok Combat Noble Trainers. They are perfect for so many different types of exercises, but customers suggested that they are best for weight training, boxing, combat fitness, and various forms of martial arts.
