FAQs
Is the Puma MB.05 suitable for outdoor courts?
While highly capable, it is primarily designed for indoor basketball use. Extensive outdoor use may accelerate wear on the outsole traction pattern.
Does this shoe provide good ankle support?
Yes, the MB.05 series features a structured silhouette designed to offer stability for the ankle during quick lateral movements.
How should I store these trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to preserve the vibrant yellow and magenta colors.
Are these true to size?
The Puma MB.05 line generally follows standard athletic sizing, but it is recommended to test fit if you prefer extra room for thicker sports socks.
What is the primary material used in the design?
The shoe utilizes a mix of synthetic and high-performance textile layers designed for breathability and structural integrity.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort during the break-in period
Wear the shoes for shorter sessions on the court to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape naturally.
Accumulation of dust on the outsole
Use a specialized rubber shoe cleaner or a slightly damp microfibre towel to wipe the soles for restored traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your MB.05 trainers, verify that the size is a proper fit for your foot arch before high-intensity use. As these are performance basketball shoes, they are intended for indoor court surfaces to maintain the integrity of the outsole traction.
Care Instructions:
- Wipe down the upper materials with a soft, damp cloth after every use to prevent dust accumulation.
- For tougher spots, use a mild soap solution and a soft-bristled brush, taking care not to oversaturate the fabric.
- Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping or adhesive damage.
- Avoid washing them in a machine, as this can degrade the specialized support structures.
