FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for all types of running (road, trail, track)?

The Crusher Distance Knit trainers are primarily designed for road running and track workouts due to their cushioning and stability features. They may not offer sufficient grip or protection for technical trail running.

How do I determine the correct UK size?

Refer to the size chart provided by EA7 or the retailer. The UK 9 size is specified for this variant. It's recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary slightly.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash the EA7 Crusher Distance Knit trainers. Machine washing can damage the knit upper, cushioning technology, and adhesives. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, and air dry.

What does 'dual-density cushioning' mean?

Dual-density cushioning refers to the use of two different types of foam or material with varying firmness levels in the midsole. This allows for softer impact absorption upon landing and firmer support for energy return during toe-off.

How visible are the reflective details?

The reflective details are designed to catch and reflect light from sources like headlights or streetlights, significantly increasing your visibility to others in low-light conditions during dawn, dusk, or night runs.

What is the heel height of these trainers?

These trainers feature a flat heel height, meaning there is minimal difference between the height of the heel and the forefoot. This design is common in running shoes for a natural foot strike.

Can these trainers be used for gym workouts?

While comfortable for light gym activities, their design is optimized for running. For heavy weightlifting or lateral movements in sports, dedicated training shoes might offer better stability and support.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort during initial wear

Allow a break-in period of a few runs. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly for a secure but not overly tight fit. Consider wearing them with appropriate athletic socks.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

The cushioning technology is designed for longevity. However, excessive use or impact beyond intended running may reduce its effectiveness. Ensure proper care and avoid using them for activities like heavy lifting or court sports.

Stains on the knit upper

Address stains immediately with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a very mild soap solution and a soft brush, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Rinse gently with a clean damp cloth and air dry.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to gently clean the technical knit upper. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

  3. Drying: Air dry the trainers away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the materials.
