FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The PUMA Karmen II Trainers are designed with a standard fit. For specific concerns about wide feet, it is recommended to try them on to ensure comfortable sizing.

Can I wear these trainers for running or sports?

No, the PUMA Karmen II Trainers are fashion-oriented sneakers with a platform sole. They are not designed for high-performance athletic activities like running, jogging, or intense sports, but rather for casual wear and style.

How do I determine my correct size?

PUMA generally runs true to size. We recommend referring to PUMA's official size guide for UK shoe sizes to find your best fit. If you are typically a UK 6.5, that would be the suggested starting point.

Is the platform sole heavy?

While the platform sole provides a bold look and some added height, PUMA designs its footwear with comfort in mind. The Karmen II aims for a balance between its distinctive aesthetic and wearable comfort, though it will have more substance than a minimalist flat sole.

What is the material of the outsole?

The outsole features a rugged rubber construction, designed to provide durable traction and grip for everyday wear on various surfaces.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The leather upper provides some natural resistance to light moisture, but these trainers are not fully waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or puddles to protect the leather and internal components.

Troubleshooting

Leather looks dull or dry

Clean the trainers thoroughly with a damp cloth, then apply a quality leather conditioner. Buff gently with a soft, dry cloth to restore shine and suppleness.

Squeaking sound when walking

Sometimes squeaking can come from the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole and applying a thin layer of talcum powder underneath, then reinsert. If the squeak persists, it might be the sole itself, which often resolves with continued wear.

Scuffs or minor scratches on the leather

For light scuffs, try gently rubbing the area with a slightly damp cloth. For deeper marks, a leather repair balm or polish in a matching color can help conceal them. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Care Instructions

To maintain the quality and appearance of your leather PUMA Karmen II Trainers, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner according to its instructions.
  2. Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner every few months to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. This is especially important if worn frequently.
  3. Drying: If your trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
  4. Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  5. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh cleaning agents, solvents, or abrasive brushes, as these can strip the leather's finish.
