FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The standard URBAN EFFECT trainers are designed for general work environments and are not inherently waterproof. Please check specific product details if waterproof capabilities are required.
How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Puma Safety or compare with your regularly worn shoe sizes. UK 11 is a standard men's size.
What is FAP®lite protection?
FAP®lite refers to a lightweight material used for penetration protection in the sole, designed to prevent sharp objects from piercing the shoe.
How does EFFECT. FOAM improve performance?
EFFECT. FOAM provides enhanced cushioning and energy return, meaning it absorbs impact more effectively and springs back, reducing foot fatigue and improving comfort during movement.
Can I wear these trainers outside of work?
Yes, the stylish urban design allows them to be worn in casual settings as well as for work, offering both safety and fashion.
What is the main difference between URBAN EFFECT and other safety shoes?
The URBAN EFFECT series uniquely combines cutting-edge sports shoe technology (like EFFECT. FOAM) with a streetwear-inspired aesthetic, offering superior comfort and style alongside essential safety features.
Are these suitable for all types of construction sites?
These trainers are suitable for many work environments, including some construction roles. However, for sites with extreme conditions or specific heavy-duty requirements, always consult your employer or safety officer to ensure compliance with regulations.
Troubleshooting
Foot fatigue after initial wear
These trainers may require a break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially and gradually increase wear time as the materials conform to your foot.
Slight stiffness in the sole
The EFFECT. FOAM sole is designed for performance and might feel firmer initially. Consistent wear will soften the material and improve flexibility.
Water ingress
While designed for durability, these are not waterproof unless specified by a particular model variant. For very wet conditions, consider specialized waterproof safety boots.
Laces becoming worn
Replace worn laces with standard trainer laces of a similar length to maintain a secure fit.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry naturally.
- Drying: Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials. Stuffing the shoes with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are clean and dry before storage to prevent mold or material degradation.
