FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Ballet Nova is primarily designed for athleisure and casual walking, not for high-impact running or intense athletic training.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a mild leather-safe cleaner and allow them to air dry away from direct sunlight or heat.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, most users find they run true to size, though the silhouette is inherently slim.
Can the insoles be removed?
The insoles are typically designed for integrated comfort; however, if you require custom orthotics, ensure they are thin enough to fit within the low-profile design.
What kind of socks should I wear with these?
Low-cut, no-show, or thin trainer socks are recommended to maintain the sleek aesthetic of the shoe's silhouette.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather upper
Use cedar shoe trees when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep creases.
Difficulty keeping laces secure
Ensure the laces are threaded evenly through the eyelets and consider a double knot if the laces tend to loosen during walking.
Material scuffing on the side panels
Use a soft-bristled brush or a dedicated leather eraser to gently buff out superficial scuffs without damaging the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Puma Ballet Nova trainers maintain their aesthetic and structural integrity, proper maintenance is essential. Because the upper is made of leather, avoid machine washing, which can damage the material and affect the fit. Instead, clean the exterior regularly with a soft, damp cloth and use a specialized leather cleaner for stubborn marks. Keep them away from direct heat sources when drying to prevent cracking or warping. Regarding compatibility, these trainers generally fit true to size, but the slim cut means those with wider feet may prefer to try them on with lighter socks to ensure a comfortable fit during initial break-in periods.
