FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Speedcat Ballet Nova is designed as a lifestyle and fashion shoe. It lacks the support and cushioning required for running or high-impact athletic activities.
How do I clean the leather exterior?
Use a damp, soft cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied sparingly.
Does the shoe run true to size?
The Speedcat Ballet Nova generally follows standard sizing, but because it is a low-profile shoe, those who prefer a looser fit may consider trying them on or wearing them with thinner socks initially.
Can I replace the insoles?
The included insoles are designed for the specific fit of the shoe. If you require custom orthotics, ensure they fit within the low-volume interior of the shoe.
What surfaces are the outsoles best for?
The textured rubber outsole is designed for general everyday surfaces like pavement, sidewalks, and indoor tile or wood flooring.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface appears dull or dry
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner suitable for footwear to restore the natural moisture and shine.
Laces constantly coming untied
Ensure a double knot is used or replace laces if the aglets are damaged or the material has lost its friction.
Accumulation of dust in the cut-out areas
Use a soft-bristled brush or a compressed air canister to gently dislodge debris from the intricate cut-out sections.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Puma Speedcat Ballet Nova shoes remain in peak condition, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources. Since they are crafted from leather, it is recommended to use a soft, damp cloth for routine spot cleaning to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging them in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as this can degrade the leather finish. If the laces become worn or frayed, replace them with standard flat laces of an appropriate length. Given the sleek silhouette, these shoes pair best with slim-fit trousers, cropped jeans, or casual dresses to highlight the unique design features.
