FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These K-Street sneakers are designed with a minimalist aesthetic and an ultra-thin sole, making them more suitable for casual wear and light walking rather than high-impact running or athletic training.

How do I maintain the suede material?

Suede should be cleaned with a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and maintain its texture. For stains, a suede eraser is recommended. It's best to avoid saturating the suede with water.

What is the fit like?

The design emphasizes a close, contoured fit that follows the natural lines of the foot, offering a refined and streamlined feel.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the rubber sole offers some protection, suede is not ideal for wet conditions. It is best to avoid wearing these sneakers in heavy rain, as moisture can damage the suede and potentially cause color transfer.

What does 'co-branded' mean?

Co-branded means that both Puma and Jil Sander are featured on the product, typically on the insole or other discreet elements, signifying the collaborative nature of the design.

Are there other color options available?

Yes, the K-Street series by Puma and Jil Sander is available in various colorways and material combinations, including different shades of brown, grey, and bronze, with options in suede and leather.

What is the main difference between this and a typical athletic trainer?

The primary difference lies in the design philosophy: K-Street focuses on a refined, minimalist aesthetic and a close fit with an ultra-thin sole, whereas typical athletic trainers prioritize maximum cushioning, support, and performance features for specific sports.

Troubleshooting

Suede becoming stiff or losing texture

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser. Avoid getting the suede wet.

Leather elements appear dry

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner to the leather parts with a soft cloth and buff gently.

Discomfort due to thin sole

Consider using thin, supportive insoles designed for minimalist footwear if additional cushioning is desired.

Color transfer from suede

Ensure the suede is properly treated or sealed if color transfer is a concern, especially in damp conditions. Allow shoes to dry completely if they become wet.

Care:

  1. Cleaning Suede: Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid water saturation.
  2. Cleaning Leather: Wipe leather components with a slightly damp cloth. Use a leather conditioner occasionally to keep the material supple.
  3. Lining: The leather lining can be aired out. For interior dirt, a dry cloth is recommended.

  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box, away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
