Full details
The PUMA Elevate Knit Low safety shoe is designed for adult professionals seeking ultimate comfort and robust protection. Its key benefit lies in the adaptive SAFETY KNIT fabric for a sock-like fit and a running-shoe-inspired sole for energy return.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for electrical hazard protection?
The product description highlights a fiberglass composite protective cap which is thermally insulating, and a slip-resistant outsole. However, specific electrical hazard (EH) ratings are not detailed. Please consult safety regulations for your specific work environment.
How do I clean the SAFETY KNIT upper?
The SAFETY KNIT upper can be cleaned gently with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools that could damage the fibers. Always allow the shoes to air dry completely.
What is the main benefit of the Torsion Control System?
The Torsion Control System provides enhanced stability and supports the natural movement of your foot, helping to prevent twisting injuries and reducing fatigue during prolonged use.
How durable is the rubber outsole?
The rubber outsole is designed to be durable and slip-resistant, withstanding temperatures up to 300°C. Its special tread design also contributes to longevity and secure ground contact.
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the Evercushion® BA+ footbed is anatomically shaped and can be removed for cleaning or replacement if needed.
What makes the fiberglass composite toe cap different from a steel toe cap?
The fiberglass composite cap is significantly lighter than traditional steel, is anti-magnetic, and offers thermal insulation, providing protection without the added weight or thermal conductivity of steel.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or causes pressure points
Ensure the correct size has been selected. The SAFETY KNIT fabric is designed to adapt, but a break-in period might be necessary. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase duration. Ensure laces are adjusted properly without overtightening.
Reduced cushioning or shock absorption over time
Check the condition of the Evercushion® BA+ footbed and the LdCell/IQ.CELL elements. If the footbed is worn, it may need replacement. The cushioning properties are designed for long-term use but can degrade with excessive wear or improper care.
Slipping on certain surfaces
While the URBAN rubber sole is designed for slip resistance, performance can vary based on the specific surface and environmental conditions (e.g., wet, oily). Ensure the sole is clean from debris. For extremely hazardous surfaces, consider specialized footwear if these shoes do not meet specific requirements.
