FAQs
Are these sneakers true to size?
Yes, the Puma Smash V2 generally fits true to size, though the leather upper may feel slightly snug initially before softening up.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives holding the sole together. Always clean them by hand.
Is this a unisex model?
Yes, the Smash V2 is designed as a unisex sneaker suitable for both men and women.
Does this shoe provide good arch support?
The shoe provides standard comfort suitable for casual wear, but if you require significant medical-grade arch support, you may consider adding an aftermarket orthotic insole.
Are these suitable for running?
These are lifestyle trainers inspired by tennis shoes. While they are comfortable for walking and light movement, they are not designed for long-distance running or high-impact athletic training.
Troubleshooting
The leather upper is showing scuffs or marks.
Use a soft eraser or a dedicated leather cleaning wipe to gently lift surface scuffs. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
The laces feel loose after walking for long periods.
Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets and consider a double knot if you require extra security during long walks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Puma Smash V2 sneakers last as long as possible, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt from the leather. For stubborn stains, use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for footwear.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Never place them directly on a heater or in a dryer, as excessive heat can cause the leather to crack or the glue bonds to weaken.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Protection: Apply a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray to protect against the elements, especially if you live in a damp climate.
