FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for marathon running?
The Puma Maxima Pro Trainers offer good cushioning for longer distances like half-marathons. For full marathons, runners might prefer a shoe with even more advanced cushioning or specific marathon features, depending on personal preference and biomechanics.
How do I know if the 'Standard fit' is right for me?
A standard fit generally suits most people. If you typically find shoes too narrow or too wide, consider trying them on if possible or looking for reviews that specifically mention width.
Can I wear these shoes for gym workouts?
Yes, the Puma Maxima Pro Trainers are versatile enough for gym workouts due to their supportive cushioning and multi-surface grip. However, for very specific activities like heavy weightlifting, a more specialized shoe might be beneficial.
What is the main difference between Maxima Pro and other Puma running shoes?
The Maxima Pro line emphasizes a balance of responsive cushioning (ProFoam) and multi-surface traction (ProTread) for versatile training, distinguishing it from models focused solely on speed or maximal cushioning.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Gently wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap if needed. Avoid soaking the material. Allow to air dry completely.
What is the material of the midsole?
The midsole is constructed from ProFoam, which is Puma's lightweight EVA foam offering responsive cushioning and comfort.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the Maxima Pro series is available in various colorways. This guide focuses on the Pink variant, but other options exist.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces, especially around the midfoot, and re-tie them with more even pressure. If the width is the issue, consider if they are the correct size for your foot width. These have a standard fit.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness
The ProFoam midsole may take a few runs to break in. If performance significantly degrades over time, the cushioning may have compressed. Ensure you are not exceeding the intended lifespan for trainers used for frequent running.
Slipping during runs
Check the outsole for any debris or wear. Ensure you are running on appropriate surfaces for the ProTread outsole's capabilities. Clean the outsole to restore grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. Simply unbox and wear. Ensure the laces are adjusted for a secure and comfortable fit before your first run.
Compatibility: The Puma Maxima Pro Trainers are designed primarily for running and general fitness activities. They are compatible with standard running socks and can accommodate most custom or over-the-counter orthotics due to their orthotic-friendly design. The ProTread Outsole is versatile for various surfaces, but extreme conditions (e.g., icy pavements, very muddy trails) may require specialized footwear.
