FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the PUMA Army Trainer is designed as a lifestyle and fashion sneaker, not as a technical running shoe.

How should I clean the white portions?

Use a damp cloth with a mild detergent. Avoid machine washing, as this can damage the structural integrity of the materials.

Does this model fit true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to your standard UK shoe size.

Can I remove the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you wish to use your own custom orthotics.

What materials are used in the construction?

The shoe utilizes high-quality synthetic and leather-based components designed for durability and comfort.

How can I prevent the shoes from yellowing?

Keep them out of direct, prolonged sunlight and ensure they are completely dry before storing them in a dark closet.

Troubleshooting

Visible scuffs on white surface

Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a soft cloth with a mild soap solution to gently buff the scuffed area.

Creasing in the toe box area

Use cedar shoe trees when not wearing the shoes to help them maintain their shape and minimize deep creases.

Laces becoming frayed

Replace with standard flat cotton laces of an appropriate length to maintain the original look.
