Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup
Getting your child ready with the PUMA FlexFocus Modern AC+ PS shoes is straightforward:
- Open Straps and Laces: Fully loosen both the hook-and-loop straps and the lace fastenings.
- Insert Foot: Help your child slide their foot into the shoe comfortably.
- Adjust Laces: Pull the laces gently to achieve a snug fit over the top of the foot, then tie them securely. Ensure they are not too tight to avoid discomfort or circulation issues.
- Secure Straps: Press down the hook-and-loop straps firmly across the foot for added security and support.
- Check Fit: Ensure there's a thumb's width space between your child's longest toe and the end of the shoe. Your child should be able to wiggle their toes comfortably. Walk a few steps to confirm the fit.
Compatibility
These shoes are designed for kids, specifically a 12 UK Child size. While this particular variant is classified for females, the overall design and features are universally suitable for active children requiring reliable athletic footwear. They are ideal for various indoor and outdoor activities that benefit from lightweight and supportive shoes.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your PUMA FlexFocus Modern AC+ PS running shoes:
- Cleaning: For general cleaning, gently wipe the textile upper and synthetic sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators, hair dryers, or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape.
- Product Label: Always refer to the specific product label inside the shoe for detailed care instructions, as material compositions and recommendations can vary slightly.
- Avoid Submerging: Do not submerge the shoes completely in water, especially for prolonged periods, to prevent material degradation and potential damage to internal components.
