FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for competitive running?
These trainers are designed for everyday running and comfort, rather than competitive or long-distance performance, which often require specialized features beyond what is offered here.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
The textile upper does not offer significant water resistance. For wet conditions, we recommend footwear specifically designed for waterproof protection to keep your feet dry.
How should I clean my Puma Retaliate 2 Trainers?
It's best to spot clean with a mild soap and a soft brush or cloth, then air dry away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing to preserve material integrity and shape.
What are the main materials used in these trainers?
They feature a textile upper and lining for breathability and comfort, combined with a durable synthetic sole for traction and support.
Do these trainers provide good arch support?
They offer a comfortable fit with a cushioned EVA midsole, but specific details on advanced arch support are not provided. Users with particular arch needs may consider adding their own orthotic inserts.
Are these shoes true to size?
Puma trainers generally run true to size. For the most accurate fit, we recommend referring to Puma's official sizing chart and considering any previous experience with Puma footwear.
Can I use these for other sports like cross-training?
While versatile for everyday use and light running, for high-impact cross-training activities that require significant lateral movement and specialized stability, shoes designed specifically for cross-training might be more appropriate.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing during wear
Ensure your laces are tied correctly – not too tight, not too loose. Check that your socks are appropriate for athletic wear and consider adjusting the fit if discomfort persists. The flatlock stitching is designed to minimize friction, so prolonged discomfort might indicate an incorrect size or fit.
Lack of traction or slipping
Inspect the grippy zoned rubber outsole for excessive wear or debris lodged in the tread. Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any dirt, mud, or small stones that might be impacting grip. If the outsole is significantly worn, it may be time to consider new trainers.
Trainers feel heavy or clunky
The compression moulded EVA midsole is designed to be lightweight. If they feel heavier than expected, ensure you have the correct size. Over time, debris or water absorption can add weight; ensure they are properly cleaned and dried.
