FAQs
Are these Puma Easy Rider shoes suitable for athletic running?
While the Easy Rider design has roots in running shoes from the 70s, this modern iteration is crafted for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for high-performance athletic running or training.
How do I properly clean the beige textile and suede components?
For the textile parts, gently wipe with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. For suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. A suede eraser can tackle minor scuffs. Always allow them to air dry completely.
What does the 'Leather Working Group (LWG)' certification signify?
LWG certification means the leather used in these shoes comes from tanneries that have been audited and certified for environmentally responsible practices, contributing to more sustainable leather manufacturing.
Is the sizing of the Puma Easy Rider true to standard UK shoe sizes?
Puma Easy Rider shoes typically run true to size. For this product (UK 9.5), we recommend purchasing your usual UK adult shoe size for an optimal fit.
Can I wear these shoes in rainy or wet weather?
The textile and suede materials are not inherently waterproof. To protect your shoes and preserve their condition, it's best to avoid heavy rain or standing water. Applying a protective water-repellent spray can offer some resistance.
What materials are used in the construction of the Puma Easy Rider?
The upper is a blend of 68% cow leather and 32% textile, featuring a nylon base, suede leather inserts, and leather reinforcements. The lining is 100% textile, the insole is 100% textile, the midsole is 100% synthetic, and the outsole is 100% rubber.
Troubleshooting
Suede areas appear dull or matted
Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the nap of the suede, lifting dirt and restoring its texture. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be effective.
Shoes feel a bit stiff when first worn
The materials, especially the leather, may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house initially to allow them to conform to your foot shape.
Visible dirt or stains on the beige textile base
Gently dab the affected area with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild, diluted soap. Avoid rubbing aggressively, which can spread the stain or damage the fabric.
Laces frequently come untied
Ensure you are tying the laces securely. If the issue persists, consider trying a double knot or replacing the laces with a material that offers better grip.
Unpleasant odor develops inside the shoes
Ensure shoes are fully aired out after each use. You can use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside and let it sit overnight (remove before wearing).

Care
Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your Easy Rider shoes:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the textile base, gently wipe with a damp cloth using a small amount of mild soap if necessary. For the suede leather inserts, use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt and restore the nap. A suede eraser can be used for minor marks. Avoid harsh chemicals, scrubbing vigorously, or machine washing.
- Cleaning the Sole: The rubber outsole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild detergent to remove dirt and grime.
- Drying: Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials and alter the color.
- Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for textile, leather, and suede materials to offer an extra layer of protection against moisture and spills.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct light. Using shoe trees can help maintain their original shape and prevent creasing.
