Full details

They offer a stable and grippy ride thanks to their design heritage and technical features. A potential consideration is that the upper is partially made from recycled materials, which may affect long-term durability in very demanding conditions.

FAQs

What are the primary materials used in the ZX 8000 upper?

The upper is constructed using a combination of textile (mesh) and suede, with a TPU heel counter for added support.

Does the ZX 8000 have good arch support?

Yes, the ZX 8000 features Torsion technology, which is designed to provide arch support and a stable foundation.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While inspired by running shoes, the ZX 8000 is best suited for casual wear and light activities. For serious running, specialized running shoes are recommended.

How much of the shoe is made from recycled content?

At least 25% of the components used to make the upper are made with a minimum of 50% recycled content.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a suede eraser for scuffs and a suede brush to restore the texture. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet. A suede protector spray can help maintain its condition.

What is the outsole made of?

The outsole is made of rubber, providing a grippy and durable surface.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the trainers.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the issue persists, consider trying a half-size larger, as fit can vary. Break them in gradually with short wear periods.

Suede appears matted or dirty

Use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Always allow suede to dry completely before brushing.

Traction is reduced on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides grip, but caution is advised on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. Consider the limitations of the tread pattern in extreme conditions.

Color transfer from sock/clothing

This can occasionally happen with new footwear, especially in darker colors. Ensure socks are colorfast. If color transfer occurs, clean the affected area gently with a damp cloth.
