FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the BOOST midsole?

The BOOST midsole provides exceptional energy return, absorbing impact and returning it with each step, leading to a comfortable and responsive feel.

Are these trainers suitable for running or athletic training?

While they offer comfort, the ZX 5K Boost are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for casual wear. They are not optimized for high-impact athletic training or running.

How should I clean the suede upper?

Use a suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully. Avoid using water excessively.

Do these trainers contain recycled materials?

Yes, the upper of these trainers contains a minimum of 50% recycled content.

What is the fit like?

These trainers feature a regular fit, designed to be comfortable and standard for most users.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The suede material is not ideal for wet conditions as it can stain and damage the material. It is best to wear these trainers in dry weather.

What do the iridescent details add?

The iridescent details on the heel and outsole provide a futuristic and unique visual element to the shoe's design.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, apply a dedicated suede cleaner sparingly and blot with a clean cloth. Allow to air dry completely.

BOOST midsole feels less responsive over time.

Ensure the midsole is clean; dirt can affect its properties. Regular cleaning as per care instructions should help maintain responsiveness. If performance significantly degrades, it may be due to normal wear and tear.

Laces are difficult to keep tied.

Ensure laces are threaded through all eyelets evenly. Try a double knot or a different lacing technique for a more secure hold.

Color bleeding on light socks.

This can sometimes occur with new, darker-dyed footwear, especially when wet. It is recommended to wear darker socks with the shoes until the color transfer stops, or to protect socks with a fabric protector spray designed for footwear.
