FAQs
Are these PUMA Army Trainers waterproof?
No, they are made of suede and are not waterproof. We recommend applying a suede-safe water repellent spray before initial use.
How do I clean the suede?
Use a brush specifically designed for suede to remove debris, and use a suede eraser or specialized cleaner for stubborn marks.

Do these run true to size?
The PUMA Army Trainer generally follows standard adult sizing. It is recommended to stick to your usual UK shoe size.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash suede trainers, as the water and agitation can damage the material and structural integrity.

Troubleshooting
Visible dust or dirt on suede material
Use a dry, soft-bristle suede brush to gently lift dirt in the direction of the grain.
Creasing at the toe box
Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the sneaker maintain its natural shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers feature a suede construction, proper care is essential to maintain their appearance. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or deep mud, as water and debris can stain the material. Use a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dust and dirt regularly. For deeper stains, employ a specialized suede cleaner and allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. To ensure the best fit, verify your UK sizing before purchase, as the structure is classic and fits standard dimensions. If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain their shape while drying.
