Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your Puma Velocity Nitro 5 trainers, proper care is essential.
- Break-in period: Wear the shoes for shorter walks or easy runs before attempting high-mileage training to allow the foam to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush after your runs. If the shoes become muddy, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging them in water or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the foam and adhesives.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can warp the materials and harden the foam.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
