FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The EA7 Predator trainers are designed for casual wear and light athletic activities. They offer good cushioning for walking and everyday use, but may not provide the specialized support and features required for high-impact running.
How do I clean the different materials on the shoes?
For the polyester and cowhide upper, use a soft brush or a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes. The EVA midsole and rubber outsole can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Always allow them to air dry.
What is the main benefit of the mixed material construction?
The mixed material construction (polyester, cowhide, polyurethane, TPU) creates a visually dynamic and textured look, enhancing the contemporary aesthetic of the trainers while offering varied durability characteristics.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
While the trainers offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Wearing them in heavy rain may lead to discomfort and could affect the appearance and longevity of the materials, especially the cowhide. It is best to avoid prolonged exposure to wet conditions.
What does 'punchy silhouette' mean in the description?
A 'punchy silhouette' refers to a design that is bold, distinct, and makes a strong visual statement. It suggests a modern, perhaps slightly aggressive or dynamic shape for the shoe.
Are there other color options available for the Predator series?
This specific guide focuses on the white EA7 Predator trainers. Other colorways or variations within the Predator series may exist, but are not detailed here.
What is the heel height of these trainers?
These trainers feature a flat heel, providing a stable and comfortable base for everyday wear.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not overtightened. If the tightness persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if the materials need a short break-in period.
Scuff marks on the white material
Gently rub the scuff mark with a damp cloth or a non-abrasive eraser. For more stubborn marks, a specialized shoe cleaner for white materials may be used following product instructions.
Slight odor after wear
Ensure the shoes are properly aired out after each use. Consider using cedar shoe trees or absorbent shoe deodorizers. If necessary, clean the insoles according to care instructions.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris. While the rubber outsole provides grip, extreme wet conditions may reduce traction. Exercise caution on slick surfaces.

Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt from the polyester and leather sections. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
