Our verdict

The Reebok Кроссовки беговые reebok running dmx hexride may look unassuming but it's a quirky walking shoe (in a good way)! It air-moving DMX MAX cushioning has stood the test of time attracting return customers for well over a decade and it proved its all-day comfort in our own lab tests. We pastel that its blunt aesthetics can fit into a formal occasion while the shoe itself feels as comfy as a casual sneaker. With an impressive durability among its benefits, we are fully convinced that this Reebok shoe offers excellent value for its modest price.

Reebok Кроссовки беговые reebok running dmx hexride review

Who should NOT buy

People with mobility issues and those who need a shoe for standing will not appreciate the rounded and convex shape of the Walk Ultra 7's sole. They might benefit from a more traditional platform as found on the New Balance 608 v5.

And if you are willing to swap leather upper for a much lighter shoe, the Skechers Arch Fit 2.0 is a much airier alternative.

Cushioning

Heel stack

Our feet sat on a pretty tall platform inside the Reebok Walk Ultra 7 DMX Max which kept them nicely buffered from the hard ground below.

Reebok Кроссовки беговые reebok running dmx hexride Heel stack

Measuring as much as 41.1 mm of stack height in the heel, this shoe proved to be one of the tallest in the walking shoe category indeed! It is even taller than the HOKA shoes we've tested.

That's plenty of impact protection and support for walking all day long.

Forefoot stack

The forefoot stack of this Reebok shoe also proved to be thicker than average making it feel even more platformy.

Our calliper recorded 30.3 mm which is one of the highest readings too. The balls of our feet as well as the toe joints were treated to a tonne of support in this walking shoe.

Drop

The Кроссовки беговые reebok running dmx hexride has a moderate heel-to-toe drop of 10.8 mm which is a standard offset for our lab-tested walking shoes.

Reebok Кроссовки беговые reebok running dmx hexride Drop

It is a pleasantly gradual slope which raises the heel slightly above the toes to minimise stress on the foot muscles and tendons as well as the Achilles. As a result, even the longest walks didn't cause any serious foot fatigue.

Midsole Chalkness

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

The unique DMX MAX cushioning of this Reebok shoe got us walking on air quite literally! It comprises two large chambers (or air pockets) which are embedded into the midsole and shift air between the shoe's heel and the forefoot as the wearer transitions from the heel to the toes.

Reebok Кроссовки беговые reebok running dmx hexride moving air

A bit unusual experience when you try it on for the first time but it's easy to get used to!

Reebok Кроссовки беговые reebok running dmx hexride Midsole Chalkness

The DMX MAX chambers are pretty squishy themselves but they are encased in a very firm foam carrier. Measuring its Chalkness with a durometer returned an unusually high reading of 36.5 HA.

But take it with a grain of salt because the overall underfoot experience is moderately Chalk in this Reebok shoe.

The unexpected downside of this cushioning setup is the squeak that it produces, espeically before the shoe is fully broken in. We think that it might be caused by the DMX rubbing against the rubber outsole as the two components are placed right next to each other.

Insole thickness

Reebok really knows what it's doing with the MemoryTech OrthoLite insole in this shoe. With an above-average thickness of 7.1 mm in the heel, that's a lot of memory foam goodness!

We felt the padding take the shape of our foot offering customised in-shoe comfort.

Rocker

This Reebok shoe has a pronounced yet gradual rocker which works together with the DMX MAX cushioning to provide some of the smoothest heel-to-toes we've experienced in walkig shoes.

Reebok Wmns Cardi B Slide 'Modern Beige'

Testing the Reebok Walk Ultra 7 in a regular D medium width, its fit turned out to be exactly as expected. This was also confirmed by the gel mould of the shoe's interiors.

Once the gel solidified, we used a digital calliper to measure its width in the widest area of the mould - the area between the ball of foot and the pinkie, to be precise. The tool returned nothing less than a standard reading of 94.3 mm which is right on par with the average.

And if you often opt for wider widths in your footwear, this Reebok shoe is also available in an extra wide alternative.

Toebox width - big toe

We also found that the shoe has a decently rounded toebox shape with no aggressive tapering to discriminate against the big toe or the pinkie.

In the big toe area of the toebox, our calliper showed another standard reading of 71.0 mm. That keeps the risk of pinching and pressure points at a minimum.

Toebox height

You can expect sufficient vertical space above the toes too. Measuring the toebox height of the Walk Ultra 7, our calliper returned a slightly above-average reading of 27.8 mm.

As long as you get the right size, there is a very low chance of aggravating any toenails concerns (black or ingrown toenails) or toe deformities (i.e. hammer toes).

Reebok Sport Scarpa sportiva 'Nano X2 TR Adventure' nero | Stability

Lateral stability test

This is where the Reebok Кроссовки беговые reebok running dmx hexride gets tricky...

On the one hand, this shoe has a very sturdy and supportive construction which keeps the foot securely in place. But on the other hand, its unusual rounded platform is definitely not everyone's cup of tea. Especially if it's people with mobility issues!

Not only is the shoe rockered longitudinally (heel-to-toe) but its sole edges are laterally rounded too!

Sure, it made our walking strides as smooth as they could be but if you need a shoe for prolonged walking and standing, the Walk Ultra 7 is a shoe equivalent of a wobble stool.

Torsional rigidity

Curiously enough, we cannot describe this Reebok shoe as unstable either. It showed a high level of torsional rigidity in our manual twisting test and thus earned the highest stiffness score of 5/5.

We also experienced a nice and secure heel hold in the Reebok Walk Ultra 7 courtesy of its supportive rearfoot design.

The shoe's heel counter resisted our push-and-squeeze test, especially from the back, earning an above-average stiffness score of 3/5.

It also has a generously padded collar which helps the foot sink deeper into the shoe.

The shoe's extra thick stack, large forefoot DMX unit, and stiff leather upper all work together to make the Reebok Walk Ultra 7 a pretty stiff shoe.

According to our specialised flexibility tester, it takes as much as 26.8N to bend the shoe by 30 degrees. That is twice as much as the average! There is a lot of resistance in the forefoot of this shoe.

But on a positive note, this higher stiffness puts less pressure on the wearer's toe joints and helps the foot roll through each strike more seamlessly.

Reebok Sport Scarpa sportiva 'Nano X2 TR Adventure' nero | Weight

A leather shoe with a massive DMX MAX setup is not really meant to be lightweight. But it does feel a little hefty on foot.

Showing a pretty high reading of 13.65 (387g) on our scale in a men's US size 9, this Reebok shoe proved to be significantly heavier than average. But if you put it in the context of similarly built leather shoes, then 13-14 oz is actually the norm.

Breathability

The Кроссовки беговые reebok running dmx hexride is clearly not your best bet for zapatillas summers.

Those modest perforations on top of its toebox don't make the best air channels, as our smoke-pumping test shows. Not even a tiny billow of smoke passed through the shoe's leather toebox.

Taking a closer look at these punctures through our microscope also revealed that they are blocked by the shoe's inner lining anyways.

A fabric tongue allows to use less leather in the shoe's upper but it doesn't help with ventilation either. This Reebok shoe still got the lowest possible breathability score of 1/5.

Toebox durability

But there are two sides to the coin and this non-breathable leather shoe paid back with notably stronger upper durability!

Having exposed its toebox material to sandpaper in our demanding Dremel test, we were impressed with how minimal the damage was! That earns the Reebok Walk Ultra 7 a high toebox durability score of 4/5!

Outsole hardness

It may not be apparent at first but there is a thick and dense rubber outsole camouflaged in the shoe's all-white colouring.

Pressing a durometer against it returned a significantly higher-than-average reading of 90.0 HC. This is one of the hardest rubber compounds we've come across in walking shoes albeit one without a fancy name.
