FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for walking long distances?

While comfortable for daily wear, these ballet flats are designed more for casual use and style than for extensive walking or athletic activity due to their slip-on nature and flat sole.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

Suede is not ideal for wet conditions. We recommend avoiding rain to protect the material. If they do get wet, follow the suede care instructions in the "Setup, Compatibility & Care" section.

How do I know my size?

These shoes are available in UK size 3. We recommend referring to PUMA's official sizing chart for accurate measurements, especially if you are unsure about UK sizing.

Is the Formstrip painted on or part of the design?

The Formstrip on the PUMA SpeedCat Ballet Shoes features a unique cutout design, which is an integral part of its aesthetic, not merely painted.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

No, due to the suede material, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the fabric and alter the shoe's shape. Always follow the specific suede care guidelines.

What is the primary material of these shoes?

The upper of the PUMA SpeedCat Ballet Shoes is made from premium suede, offering a soft and luxurious feel.

Do these shoes offer arch support?

As a ballet flat inspired design, they offer minimal arch support. For individuals requiring additional support, we recommend consulting a podiatrist or considering orthopedic inserts.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or matted.

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently brush the nap in a consistent direction, restoring its texture and appearance.

Shoes feel too loose or too tight.

Ensure you have the correct size. The elastic straps provide some flexibility, but an ill-fitting size will impact comfort. If too tight, professional stretching may be an option for suede.

Shoes stained or wet.

For stains, refer to the "Care for Suede" section above. If wet, stuff with paper towels, let air dry, then brush. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

Sole lacks expected grip.

Check the tire tread sole for any embedded debris or excessive wear. Clean the sole with a damp cloth if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unique blend of athletic and ballet flat style.
  • Easy and quick slip-on design.
  • Comfortable for everyday wear.
  • Provides good grip with the tire tread sole.
  • Suede material offers a premium look and feel.
  • Versatile for various casual outfits.

Cons

  • Suede material requires careful maintenance and is susceptible to water damage and stains.
  • Slip-on design offers less support than laced shoes, making it unsuitable for intense physical activities.
  • May not be suitable for all weather conditions, especially wet environments.
  • The specific style might not appeal to everyone.
  • Limited ankle support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Simply slip them on! The elastic straps ensure a comfortable and secure fit.

Compatibility:

These shoes are highly compatible with casual and smart-casual wardrobes. They pair well with:

  • Jeans (skinny, straight, or mom jeans)
  • Leggings or capris
  • Casual skirts and dresses
  • Tailored shorts

Care for Suede:

  1. Protection: Before first wear, treat the suede with a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede. Repeat periodically.
  2. Cleaning: For general dirt and scuffs, use a suede brush to gently brush in one direction to lift dirt and restore the nap. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be effective.
  3. Stains: For wet stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For oil-based stains, apply cornstarch or talcum powder to absorb the oil, let it sit for a few hours, then brush off.
  4. Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and maintain shape, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat. Do not use a hairdryer.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to maintain their shape.
