FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they feature advanced cushioning, they are primarily designed for casual wear, walking, and light gym activities rather than long-distance running.
How do I determine the right size?
These trainers follow standard Nike sizing. It is recommended to choose your normal athletic shoe size for the best fit.
Are these unisex?
Yes, the Nike Shox Z series includes both specific female and unisex size options to ensure a wide range of fit compatibility.
How should I clean the soles?
Use a mixture of mild soap and lukewarm water with a soft cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using a washing machine.
Do the Shox columns lose their bounce over time?
Like any performance footwear, the materials will eventually fatigue. However, the mechanical design of the Shox system is built to maintain its structure longer than basic foam.
Can I replace the Shox columns if they are damaged?
No, the cushioning system is permanently integrated into the sole construction for safety and stability reasons.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt inside the Shox columns
Use a blast of compressed air or a soft cotton swab to gently remove debris from the gaps.
Slippage on smooth indoor surfaces
Wipe the outsole clean with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust that may reduce grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, ensure you have correctly identified your UK size, as the Shox Z is available in a variety of sizes from 6 to 12. When first wearing them, walk on a flat surface to allow the mechanical columns to adjust to your natural stride. For maintenance, keep the shoes away from harsh chemicals and direct heat sources, as these can degrade the rubber compounds in the Shox columns. Clean the exterior using a soft-bristled brush and mild soapy water, then air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
