Product Information
Full details
The PUMA Suede Platform Gem trainers are designed for adult women who prioritize both fashion-forward aesthetics and comfortable, everyday footwear. These trainers elevate the classic PUMA silhouette with a distinctive platform sole, providing added height and a unique style statement that works well for casual outings. While they offer excellent durability and a premium suede finish, potential buyers should note that the platform construction may feel stiffer initially compared to traditional flat-soled sneakers.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they follow standard UK sizing for adults.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No, washing machines can damage the suede material and affect the structure of the platform sole.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from high-quality suede.
Do these provide good arch support?
The platform base is relatively flat; if you require specific arch support, we recommend adding an aftermarket insole.
How do I remove water spots?
Allow the shoe to dry naturally, then gently brush the nap of the suede in one direction to restore its texture.
Is the sole non-slip?
The platform sole is designed with a durable rubber-like grip suitable for most standard walking surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Surface stains on the suede
Use a soft suede eraser or a light dry brush to gently lift stains without using excessive moisture.
Stiff feel during first wear
Wear them indoors for short periods with thicker socks to gently stretch and soften the materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK sizing (this model is UK 8.5). Because these are made from genuine suede, they are sensitive to moisture and dirt. To maintain their appearance, use a specialized suede brush to remove surface dust regularly. Avoid wearing these in heavy rain, as water can stain or damage the suede texture. If the shoes get wet, let them air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the material to stiffen.
