FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Zx 8000 is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer and is not recommended for dedicated long-distance running or high-impact athletic activities.
How do I ensure I have the right fit?
These trainers follow standard UK adult sizing. It is best to try them on with the type of socks you intend to wear daily to ensure a proper fit.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and materials of the trainers. Stick to manual cleaning methods.
What is the primary material used?
The Zx 8000 incorporates high-quality synthetic and textile components designed for durability and comfort.
Do these shoes provide arch support?
Yes, the design includes ergonomic support, though those with specific orthotic needs may choose to replace the factory insole with a custom one.
Is the black and grey colourway prone to fading?
While the materials are high quality, keeping them out of direct, prolonged sunlight when not in use will help preserve the colour vibrancy.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the toe box
Use cedar shoe trees when not in use to help the shoe maintain its original shape.
Dirt buildup on the sole
Use a specialized rubber eraser or a soft-bristled brush with mild soapy water to gently scrub the outsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Zx 8000 trainers remain in top condition, start by ensuring you have selected the correct UK size, as the fit is designed for standard adult proportions. For maintenance, it is recommended to spot-clean the exterior using a soft brush or a slightly dampened cloth to remove surface dirt and debris. Avoid machine washing or submerging the trainers in water, as this can degrade the materials. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping or adhesive breakdown.
