FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running races?
The Pounce LITE JR Trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. For competitive running or high-impact sports, a shoe specifically engineered for that purpose would offer better performance and support.
How do I ensure the best fit for my child?
Measure your child's foot from heel to toe and compare it to the PUMA sizing chart. Ensure there is a small amount of space (about a thumb's width) between the longest toe and the end of the shoe when they are standing.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the best way to clean them and preserve the materials.
What is the main benefit of the textile upper?
The textile upper provides breathability, helping to keep your child's feet cool and comfortable by allowing air to circulate.
What activities are these trainers best suited for?
These trainers are best suited for everyday wear, school, playground activities, and light recreational play. They are not intended for intense athletic training.
How should I store the trainers when not in use?
Store the trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are clean and dry before storing to prevent odor or material degradation.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and ensure they are tied at a comfortable tension. If the shoe is still too tight, consider if the size is appropriate or if the laces need to be adjusted differently.
Discoloration on the textile upper
Spot clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, a specialized textile cleaner might be needed, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
Soles showing signs of wear
Inspect the wear pattern. If it's normal wear and tear for the activity level, it indicates the shoes have been well-used. For premature excessive wear, ensure the child is not using them for activities beyond their intended purpose.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. They are compatible with typical children's athletic wear and casual outfits.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the textile upper with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap and water solution. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach.
- Cleaning the Sole: Use a brush to remove mud or debris from the outsole. A damp cloth can be used for the midsole.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry completely at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Laces: If laces become dirty, they can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and water, then air-dried.
