FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
Yes, the Pro Foam cushioning is designed for the high-mileage comfort required for long-distance training.
Are the Puma Maxima Pro Trainers waterproof?
No, they feature an engineered mesh upper for breathability, meaning they are not waterproof.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While intended for running, the flat heel provides enough stability for light weightlifting or treadmill work.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Generally, running shoes like these should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles depending on your gait and surface.
Do these provide support for flat feet?
These are neutral trainers. If you have flat feet and require significant arch support, you may want to consult a podiatrist regarding the use of custom orthotics.
What is the weight of the shoe?
While weight varies by size, the Maxima Pro is engineered as a lightweight performance trainer.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on the top of the foot
Try a 'window lacing' technique to relieve pressure on the midfoot area.
Slipping at the heel during runs
Use the extra eyelet at the top of the shoe to perform a runner's loop for a more secure heel lock.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, start by ensuring the laces are tensioned comfortably to allow for foot swelling during long runs. These trainers are standard UK fit; always wear running-specific synthetic or wool-blend socks to prevent blisters and manage moisture.
Care Instructions:
- Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth after runs to remove road grime.
- Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the foam.
- Remove the sockliner if it becomes damp to speed up the drying process.
- Avoid machine washing, as the heat and agitation can degrade the midsole bonding agents.
