FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Generally, yes, but heritage designs like the ZX 8000 can fit differently than modern lightweight runners. It is recommended to consult your standard UK size or try them on if possible.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the glue, materials, and overall structure of the trainers. Stick to manual cleaning methods.
What materials are used in the construction?
The models feature a combination of high-quality leather and synthetic materials designed for durability and style.
Are these suitable for running?
The ZX 8000 is classified as an Originals trainer, meant for casual, everyday lifestyle wear rather than performance athletic running.
How do I remove scuffs from the leather?
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, followed by a dry buffing with a soft cloth.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel stiff during the first wear
Leather shoes often require a short break-in period; wear them for shorter durations initially to allow the material to soften.
Stains appearing on the grey upper
Gently clean with a specialized leather or suede cleaner depending on the specific panel material; always test a small, inconspicuous area first.
Loose fit or heel slippage
Check your lacing pattern; using the extra eyelets at the top can provide a more secure lockdown for your heel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your ZX 8000 trainers in top condition, ensure you select the appropriate UK size for your foot shape. If your pair contains leather elements, avoid submerging them in water or using harsh chemicals during cleaning. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for surface stains. Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack or the materials to warp. Storing them in a cool, dry place will help maintain their shape over time.
