FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball?
While they are performance-built, the specialized rubber compound is optimized for indoor courts; outdoor use may accelerate wear on the tread.
How does the sizing compare to other Puma models?
The MB.05 generally fits true to size for most, though those with wider feet may prefer to go up a half size.
Does this shoe provide good ankle support?
Yes, the mid-cut silhouette and reinforced heel structure are designed to provide significant lateral support during quick movements.
Can I use custom orthotics with these?
Yes, the insole is removable, allowing you to insert your own specialized orthotics if needed for better arch support.
How long should the cushioning last?
With regular court usage, the responsive cushioning is designed to last for a full season, though this depends on the intensity of your play.
Is the material breathable?
The upper is constructed with layered materials and mesh elements to provide a balance between structural integrity and necessary airflow.
Troubleshooting
Reduced traction on the court
Wipe the outsoles with a damp cloth or a sticky pad to remove dust and debris buildup.
Feeling of discomfort or pinching
Check your lacing technique; adjust to a runner's loop if you need more heel lockdown or loosen the eyelets near the toe box for more volume.
Scuffing on the upper material
Use a soft-bristled brush and mild soap to gently spot clean the affected area, then air dry away from direct sunlight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your MB.05s, lace them securely to match your arch height for optimal lockdown. These are professional-grade athletic trainers and should be worn with appropriate athletic socks to prevent friction and ensure a proper fit. For care, wipe the synthetic and mesh uppers with a damp cloth after use to remove dust, which helps maintain the traction of the outsole. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can compromise the integrity of the foam cushioning and adhesives.
