FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
While the polished leather provides more water resistance than traditional suede, they are not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain to prevent water damage.
Do these shoes run true to size?
The Puma Suede series typically fits true to standard UK sizing. If you have particularly wide feet, you may find the low-profile fit snug initially.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather finish and ruin the adhesive bonds of the shoe. Always clean by hand.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from high-quality polished leather with signature suede accents on the Formstrip.
Are these suitable for running?
No, these are fashion-led trainers. They do not have the necessary support, stability, or cushioning required for athletic activities like running.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface shows scuffs or minor scratches
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or a color-matched shoe polish to buff out minor surface imperfections.
Formstrip looks matted or dusty
Use a specialized suede brush or a soft-bristled brush to gently agitate the suede fibers in one direction.
Creasing at the toe box
This is a natural occurrence with leather footwear; using shoe trees when the shoes are not being worn can help minimize deep creasing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Since these trainers are crafted from polished leather, proper care is essential to preserve their look. Avoid submerging them in water or using harsh industrial cleaners. Instead, wipe the surface gently with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth to remove dirt. Use a high-quality leather cream or conditioner periodically to prevent the leather from cracking. For the suede Formstrip, use a dedicated suede brush to lift dust and maintain the texture. To keep the interior fresh, store the trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and consider using cedar shoe trees to help maintain the low-profile shape.
