FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are fashion trainers inspired by tennis and are not built with the cushioning or stability features required for long-distance running.
How do I clean the white leather?
Wipe with a soft damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild leather-safe cleaner and a soft brush, then allow to air dry away from heat sources.
Do they fit true to size?
Most users find they fit true to standard adult sizing, though if you prefer a thicker sock, you might consider sizing up by a half size.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are generally removable, allowing you to swap them for orthotic inserts if needed.
Are these trainers water-resistant?
While the leather upper offers some protection against light splashes, they are not waterproof and should not be submerged in water.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone during activity
Use a double knot or replace the laces with a slightly more textured set for better friction.
Creasing on the toe box
This is a natural occurrence with leather trainers; you can mitigate it by using shoe trees when not being worn.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your PUMA Smash V2 Trainers last as long as possible, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in: While comfortable, the leather may need a few days of wear to fully mold to the shape of your feet.
- Cleaning: Use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For leather care, use a specialized leather cleaner, avoiding harsh detergents that could dry out or discolor the material.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading.
- Lacing: Experiment with different lacing techniques if you have a higher instep, as the full lace closure is highly adjustable.
