FAQs
Are these PUMA Axelion shoes suitable for marathon running?
The PUMA Axelion shoes are designed for general running, daily workouts, and casual wear, offering supreme comfort for these activities. While they provide excellent cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for the specialized demands of marathon or ultra-distance running.
How do I determine the correct size for me?
It's recommended to try on the shoes with the type of socks you typically wear for athletic activities. Ensure there's a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe, and that your heel feels secure without slipping. Our current model is a UK size 7.
What is the purpose of the 'foam heel unit'?
The foam heel unit is a key feature designed to provide superior cushioning and shock absorption. It helps to reduce the impact on your joints during each stride, enhancing comfort and protecting your feet during runs and active use.
Can I use these shoes for gym workouts other than running?
Yes, absolutely! The PUMA Axelion's stable design, thanks to the TPU shank, and durable rubber outsole make them well-suited for a variety of gym activities, including cardio machines, light weight training, and agility drills.
How should I clean the textile upper of my shoes?
To clean the textile upper, use a soft, damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap. Gently wipe the surface to remove dirt and stains. Avoid using harsh chemicals or scrubbing vigorously, as this can damage the material. Always air dry them completely.
Is this shoe waterproof?
> Info needed: The product description does not specify if the PUMA Axelion shoes are waterproof. Based on the 'textile upper' description, they are generally not designed to be waterproof, but rather breathable. It's best to avoid heavy rain or standing water.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Check your lacing technique; ensure it's appropriate for your foot shape. If the issue persists, verify you have the correct size. Different lacing patterns can adjust pressure points.
Slipping on certain surfaces.
Inspect the rubber outsole for excessive wear or blockages in the tread pattern. Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris that might be reducing grip.
Unpleasant odor from shoes.
Remove insoles and allow the shoes to air out completely after each use. Consider using a shoe deodorizer spray or cedar shoe inserts to absorb moisture and neutralize odors.
Upper material appears dirty or stained.
Gently clean the textile upper with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild, non-abrasive soap. For stubborn stains, a soft brush can be used carefully. Always air dry.

Product Care
Proper care extends the life and maintains the appearance of your shoes:
- Cleaning the Textile Upper: For general dirt and grime, gently wipe the textile upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes which can damage the material. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.
- Cleaning the Rubber Outsole: A soft brush or old toothbrush can be used with mild soap and water to remove dirt from the tread, ensuring continued traction.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes. Do not put them in a dryer or expose them to direct sunlight or high heat, as this can degrade materials and adhesives.
- Odor Control: Remove insoles periodically to air them out. Using shoe deodorizers or stuffing shoes with newspaper when not in use can help absorb moisture and control odors.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
