Puma Flexfocus - Black - 12 UK Child

Yes, with their durable construction, comfortable fit, and easy on-and-off design, the Puma Flexfocus Running Shoes are an excellent choice for daily school activities and playtime.

The elasticated laces are designed to allow the shoe to stretch, making it easy for children to slip their feet in and out without needing to tie traditional laces. The hook-and-loop strap then secures the fit.

The upper is made from a combination of textile and synthetic materials, providing durability and breathability. The sockliner and lining are textile, and the sole is made from grippy EVA for traction and lightweight comfort.

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the shoe's structure, materials, and adhesives. Please refer to the specific care instructions on the product label for proper cleaning.

Absolutely. The lightweight design, breathable mesh upper, and grippy EVA outsole are all features that make these shoes well-suited for running, active play, and various sports activities for kids.

Ensure your child tries them on with the type of socks they'll typically wear. The hook-and-loop strap should be adjusted to provide a snug, secure fit without being too tight or allowing the foot to slip. There should be a small amount of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.

Ensure the hook-and-loop strap is adjusted correctly. It should be snug enough to secure the foot without causing discomfort or restricting circulation. If the size feels completely wrong, verify against the child's foot measurements and consider a different size.

After each use, gently wipe down the upper with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher grime, follow the spot cleaning instructions under 'Care Instructions'.

Check the EVA outsole for accumulated dirt or debris. Clean the treads thoroughly with a brush and water to restore optimal traction. Inspect for excessive wear on the sole, which might indicate it's time for a new pair.

Ensure your child wears breathable socks. After use, remove any insoles (if removable) to allow them and the shoes to air out completely. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight.
