FAQs

What age group are these trainers recommended for?

These Puma Carina Street PS trainers are recommended for young kids between 4 and 8 years old.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is made of leather.

How should I clean the leather parts of the trainers?

Wipe the leather with a clean, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for shoes. Always allow to air dry.

Are these suitable for sports?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday activities. They are not specifically designed for high-impact sports.

What is the purpose of the perforated vamp?

The perforated vamp allows for better air circulation, helping to keep the child's feet cool and comfortable.

How does the platform sole benefit the wearer?

The slightly elevated and textured platform sole adds a trendy aesthetic and provides a stable, grippy base for walking and light activity.

Can these trainers be washed in a machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially due to the leather material and platform sole, as this can damage the shoe's structure and materials.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone frequently

Ensure laces are tied with a secure knot. Double-knotting may help for very active children. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.

Discoloration on the white leather

Clean gently with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner. Protectant sprays can help prevent future staining.

Shoes feel stiff

New leather shoes can be stiff. Wear them for short periods indoors to break them in. Natural foot warmth and movement will soften the leather over time.
