FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the PUMA Easy Rider has roots in 70s running shoes, this vintage model is primarily designed for casual wear and style, not for modern high-performance running. For athletic activities, we recommend PUMA's current performance running shoe lines.

How do I clean the suede parts?

To clean suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, apply a suede cleaner according to its instructions and let it air dry. Avoid using water directly on suede as it can cause damage and alter the texture.

What does 'LWG Certified Leather' mean?

LWG (Leather Working Group) certification indicates that the leather used in these shoes comes from tanneries that have been audited and certified for environmentally friendly practices in their manufacturing processes, promoting sustainable leather production.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

Due to the textile and suede components, these trainers are not highly water-resistant. We recommend avoiding heavy rain to protect the materials and prolong the shoe's lifespan. A protective spray designed for mixed materials can offer some water repellency.

How do I find the right size?

We recommend referring to PUMA's official sizing chart and measuring your foot length. If possible, try them on to ensure a comfortable fit, allowing for a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.

Will the vintage branding fade over time?

The PUMA and Easy Rider branding is applied using methods like film-printing and debossing. While designed to be durable, like all materials, regular wear and exposure to elements can cause subtle changes over time. Proper care will help maintain their appearance.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a suede brush to gently brush the nap in one direction, lifting any compacted fibers and restoring the original texture. For stubborn areas, a specialized suede eraser can help.

Trainers feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you've selected the correct size. If new, allow a break-in period for the materials to conform to your feet. Wearing thicker socks initially can sometimes help stretch them slightly. If discomfort persists, consider an alternative size.

Stains on textile or suede parts

For textile, spot clean immediately with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap, then air dry. For suede, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product instructions carefully. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing.

Loss of traction on the outsole

Regularly clean the rubber outsole to remove embedded dirt or debris. If the tread is significantly worn down, the natural lifespan of the outsole may have been reached, and traction will be reduced.

Foot odor

Ensure you wear breathable socks. Remove insoles periodically and air them out. You can use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.

Compatibility

The PUMA Easy Rider Vintage trainers are highly versatile and compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual outfits. Their retro design makes them an excellent match for denim, chinos, track pants, and even some relaxed tailoring. They are suitable for various seasons, though their textile and suede construction makes them less ideal for heavy rain or snow.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the aesthetic of your PUMA Easy Rider Vintage trainers:

  • General Cleaning: For textile areas, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. For the rubber outsole, use a brush to remove dirt and then wipe clean.
  • Suede Care: Use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the nap. For stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material. Avoid excessive wetting, as suede can be permanently damaged by water.
  • Leather Care: Wipe leather sections with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a leather conditioner or cleaner designed for cow leather.
  • Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat or sunlight. Never put them in a dryer.
  • Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  • Protection: Consider applying a protective spray suitable for mixed materials (textile, suede, leather) to help repel water and stains.
