FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for competitive running?
The PUMA Axelion Block Running Shoes are designed for comfort and athletic style for daily runs and general fitness. While they offer good cushioning with their foam heel unit, specific advanced technologies for competitive, high-performance running are not detailed.
How do I determine the correct size?
These shoes are in UK sizing. It's recommended to measure your foot length and consult PUMA's official size chart. If unsure, trying them on at the end of the day when your feet are slightly swollen can help ensure a comfortable fit.
Can I use these shoes for activities other than running?
Yes, their comfortable foam heel, textile upper, and durable rubber outsole make them versatile for gym workouts, walking, and casual everyday wear, complementing an athletic lifestyle.
What is the 'TPU shank'?
The TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) shank is a structural component located in the midfoot area of the shoe. It provides stability and support, helping to prevent the shoe from twisting excessively and offering a more stable platform.
How should I clean the textile upper?
For best results, gently clean the textile upper with a soft brush or cloth, warm water, and a small amount of mild detergent. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners. Let them air dry completely away from direct heat.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
The textile upper provides breathability but is not inherently waterproof or highly water-resistant. They are best suited for dry conditions. For wet weather, consider footwear with specific water-resistant features.
What does 'low boot profile' mean?
A 'low boot profile' refers to the design around the ankle. It means the shoe's collar sits lower on the ankle, offering more freedom of movement and a classic, streamlined look compared to higher-cut designs.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the exaggerated lacing. Experiment with different lacing techniques to find the most comfortable and secure fit for your foot shape. Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks.
Lack of cushioning or comfort during runs.
While the foam heel unit provides comfort, if you require additional support, consider adding an aftermarket insole designed for running. Ensure the shoe size is correct for optimal cushioning placement.
Slipping on wet surfaces.
The rubber outsole provides good general traction, but no shoe is completely slip-proof on all wet or slick surfaces. Exercise caution on wet pavement or uneven terrain. Inspect the outsole for excessive wear.
Unpleasant odor develops in shoes.
Regularly air out your shoes after use. Remove insoles to allow them to dry completely. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.
Upper material appears dirty or stained.
Clean the textile upper immediately with a soft brush or damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, specialized shoe cleaners for textile materials can be used, following the product instructions carefully.
