FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
No, the PUMA RS-X Efekt PRM trainers are designed for lifestyle and casual wear. They offer good comfort for walking but lack the specialized support and cushioning required for running or high-impact sports.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the PUMA sizing chart, which usually correlates UK sizes with foot length in centimeters or inches. Compare your foot measurement to the chart provided by the retailer or PUMA.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather upper offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may cause damage or discomfort. It's best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions and allow them to dry thoroughly if they do get damp.
What is the 'RS' in RS-X Efekt?
RS stands for 'Running System,' which is PUMA's technology that provides comfortable cushioning and shock absorption in their lifestyle and running shoe lines.
How often should I clean my leather trainers?
Regular cleaning after wear with a damp cloth is recommended. A more thorough cleaning with a leather cleaner should be done as needed, depending on how often and in what conditions you wear them.
Is the 'Black Grey' colorway true to the images?
Due to potential differences in display device settings and lighting during photography, there might be slight variations in color. However, the product description aims to be as accurate as possible.
What is the material of the PUMA RS-X Efekt PRM?
The primary upper material for this specific model is leather, contributing to its premium look and durability.
Troubleshooting
Trainer feels too tight or stiff.
This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your foot. You can also try wearing thicker socks during the break-in period or use a shoe stretcher.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes occur due to friction between parts of the shoe. Try inserting a powder (like talcum powder) under the insole or between the tongue and laces to reduce friction.
Discoloration or marks on the leather.
Address marks promptly with a suitable leather cleaner. For persistent discoloration, consult a professional shoe repair service. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean. If the slipperiness persists, especially on very smooth or wet surfaces, consider using a shoe grip spray or having rubber sole protectors added by a cobbler.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Drying: If the trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with paper can help them retain their shape.
- Suede/Nubuck (if applicable): If any part of the trainer includes suede or nubuck, use a suede brush to maintain texture and remove dry dirt.
- Laces: Remove laces for cleaning and wash them separately. Consider replacing them if they become worn.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and damage.
