FAQs
What material are the Puma Carina 2.0 trainers made from?
The upper of these trainers is crafted from premium leather, offering both durability and a clean aesthetic. The sole is made of rubber for reliable traction.
Are these trainers suitable for sports or running?
No, the Puma Carina 2.0 trainers are primarily designed for casual wear, everyday comfort, and light walking. They are not engineered for high-performance sports, running, or intense athletic activities.
How do I clean the white leather to keep it looking new?
For routine cleaning, wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a white leather-specific cleaner. Always follow the product's instructions and test on a small, discreet area first. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Do these trainers provide good arch support?
The Carina 2.0 features a cushioned insole designed for everyday comfort and general support. While they offer good cushioning, individuals requiring specialized arch support might consider adding their own orthotic inserts.
Are these trainers true to size?
PUMA footwear generally runs true to size for most users. However, fit can vary by individual foot shape. It's recommended to try them on if possible, or refer to PUMA's official sizing guide if you are unsure.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather offers some natural resistance, these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided, as it can damage the leather. Applying a water and stain repellent designed for leather can offer some protection.
Troubleshooting
Trainer feels tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. New leather trainers may require a brief break-in period. Try wearing them for short periods initially. Adjusting the lacing can also alleviate pressure points.
Leather upper appears dirty or stained
For light dirt, use a soft, damp cloth. For deeper stains, apply a specialized white leather cleaner following its instructions. Always test on a small, hidden area first.
Squeaking sound from soles
New rubber soles can sometimes squeak initially due to friction. This usually diminishes with wear. If persistent, a small amount of baby powder sprinkled under the insole might help reduce friction.
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure you are using a secure lacing knot, such as a double knot or reef knot. Check if the laces are worn; if so, consider replacing them with new ones.

Care
Proper care will help maintain the pristine look and longevity of your leather trainers:
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt after each wear.
- Deep Cleaning (Leather): For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth. Follow the product's instructions carefully and test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Sole Cleaning: Use a brush or damp cloth with mild soap to clean the rubber soles and remove grime.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
- Protection: Consider applying a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially for white leather.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
