FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for long-distance running?

While the Puma Retaliate 2 Trainers offer lightweight performance and comfort, they are primarily designed for light running and everyday wear. For long-distance or competitive running, you might consider shoes with more specialized cushioning and support.

How do I choose the correct size?

It's generally recommended to measure your foot and refer to Puma's size chart. Ensure there's about a thumb's width space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe for optimal comfort.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and adhesives. Please refer to the 'Care' section for proper cleaning instructions.

Do these trainers provide arch support?

The trainers feature a compression moulded EVA midsole which provides general cushioning and some inherent support. However, specific arch support levels can vary by individual. If you require significant arch support, you may consider adding custom insoles.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from a textile material, offering breathability and flexibility for comfortable wear.

Are they suitable for indoor and outdoor use?

Yes, the grippy zoned rubber outsole provides traction suitable for various surfaces, making them appropriate for both indoor activities like gym workouts and outdoor casual wear and light running.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the lace closure system. Ensure laces are evenly tightened across the foot. Consider trying different lacing techniques for a more personalized fit.

Foot discomfort after prolonged wear.

While the trainers feature a padded ankle collar and EVA midsole, individual foot shapes vary. Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks. If discomfort persists, consider trying aftermarket insoles for additional arch or heel support.

Squeaking sound while walking.

This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped between the insole and the shoe's base. Remove the insole, clean both surfaces, and allow them to dry thoroughly before reinserting. A small amount of talcum powder beneath the insole can also help.

Outsole losing grip.

Regularly clean the grippy zoned rubber outsole to remove any embedded dirt or debris. Ensure the tread is not excessively worn. If the tread is significantly worn down, it may be time for new trainers.
