FAQs

Are the adidas ZX 750 suitable for running or sports activities?

While the ZX 750 has its origins in adidas' running shoe series from 1984, it is primarily designed as a retro lifestyle and casual shoe in its current iteration. It lacks the advanced cushioning and support technologies found in modern running or athletic footwear and is not recommended for performance sports.

How do I determine the correct size?

The product listed is a UK 11. adidas shoes generally fit true to size, but we recommend consulting an adidas size chart if you are unsure or trying them on if possible to ensure the best fit.

What materials are the adidas ZX 750 - Black - UK 11 made from?

The adidas ZX 750 typically features a blend of materials, often including mesh, synthetic overlays, and sometimes suede or leather accents, contributing to its classic look and durability. Exact material composition can vary slightly between specific models and colorways.

Can I machine wash my adidas ZX 750 shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoes. Always clean them by hand using appropriate methods as outlined in the 'Care Instructions' section.

How do I clean suede parts on my ZX 750s?

If your ZX 750s have suede elements, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, gently dab with a suede cleaner and a clean cloth. Allow to air dry completely. Avoid using water directly on suede.

Are these shoes durable for everyday wear?

Yes, the adidas ZX 750 is built with durability in mind, reflecting adidas' heritage in athletic footwear. With proper care and normal everyday use, they are designed to offer long-lasting wear and comfort.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Ensure you've selected the correct size (UK 11 for this specific pair). Check lace tension and try wearing different sock thicknesses. Over time, shoes may break in slightly.

Shoes get dirty quickly

Regularly wipe down shoes after use with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild shoe cleaner appropriate for the shoe's materials. Consider applying a protective spray.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing and reinserting the insole, or sprinkle a small amount of baby powder underneath it.

Odor develops in shoes

Allow shoes to air out after each wear. Remove insoles if possible to dry separately. Use odor-absorbing inserts or sprinkle baking soda inside when not in use.
