FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for outdoor football?

No, the Predator Sala trainers are specifically designed for indoor court use. The rubber outsole provides optimal grip on polished indoor surfaces and is not suitable for the demands of outdoor play.

How do I clean the synthetic leather upper?

Wipe the synthetic leather upper with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap and water solution, then wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

What is the main benefit of the ribbed upper structure?

The ribbed structure mimics the control zones of the original Predator football boots, designed to enhance ball feel and precision during dribbling and passing.

How does the fold-over tongue work?

The tongue can be worn folded over the laces for a clean, uninterrupted surface for striking the ball, or unfolded for a more conventional fit and enhanced comfort.

What is the 'non-marking' rubber outsole?

A non-marking outsole is designed not to leave scuff marks or residue on indoor court surfaces, protecting the court's finish.

What is the warranty period for these trainers?

Please refer to the retailer's or manufacturer's warranty information for specific details, as warranty periods can vary.

Are these shoes unisex?

While described as unisex in some contexts, the sizing is provided in standard UK adult male sizing. It's recommended to check the sizing guide carefully.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the synthetic upper to break in and conform to your foot shape. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period if they feel slightly loose.

Lack of grip on certain surfaces

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. The outsole is designed for standard indoor court surfaces; performance may vary on exceptionally dusty or wet courts.

Tongue feels awkward

Experiment with the fold-over tongue position. It can be worn folded over for a cleaner striking surface or unfolded for a more traditional fit and feel.
