Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect
Refer to PUMA's official sizing chart for accurate measurements. Ensure feet are measured at the end of the day. Consider the regular width and rounded toe when assessing fit.
Stiffness in new shoes
New trainers can often feel stiff initially. Wear them for short periods around the house to break them in gradually. Gentle flexing of the shoe can also help.
Lace cover is difficult to use
Ensure laces are threaded through the eyelets neatly before engaging the lace cover. Avoid over-tightening the laces, which can make the cover bunch up.
Discoloration or scuff marks
Address scuff marks promptly with a damp cloth and mild soap. For persistent marks, a specialized shoe cleaner for synthetic materials might be necessary.

Care Instructions:

- Drying: Air dry the trainers naturally. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
