FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the structural integrity and adhesives.
Are PUMA R78 trainers true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing; however, individual foot width may necessitate a half-size adjustment.
Can I use these for running?
These are designed for lifestyle and casual wear, not for long-distance running or professional sports performance.
How do I remove scuffs from the sole?
A rubber eraser or a magic sponge dampened slightly with water often works well to remove scuffs from the white midsole.
Do these provide arch support?
They provide basic comfort for daily walking, but individuals requiring specific orthotic support may want to swap the insole.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
The materials are not waterproof; it is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to protect the fabric finish.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the white upper
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution or a mild soap-and-water mix with a soft-bristled brush.
Laces coming untied
Ensure a double knot is used if the laces are sliding, or replace with cotton-based flat laces for better grip.
Feeling tight in the toe box
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to be looser toward the front of the shoe to allow for more natural foot splay.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers require no special setup; simply lace them to your preferred tension upon first wear. They are fully compatible with standard casual and athletic socks. To maintain their appearance, clean them regularly by wiping the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh industrial cleaners, as this may affect the bonding materials or the fabric finish. Air dry them away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent warping.
