FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathons?
These trainers are designed for daily runs and casual use; for competitive marathon training, you may require a shoe with more specialized stability features.
Can I use these for cross-training?
Yes, their lightweight construction makes them suitable for light gym sessions and general movement, though they are optimized for running.
How do I determine my size?
PUMA sizes are standard, but if you wear thicker running socks, you may want to ensure you have a thumb's width of space at the toe.
Are they waterproof?
No, the Flyer LITE 3 features breathable mesh upper materials that are not designed to be water-resistant.
How often should I replace these trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace running trainers every 300 to 500 miles, depending on the intensity of your exercise and the wear on the outsole.
Can I replace the SoftFoam+ sockliner?
Yes, the sockliner is removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if you require additional arch support.
Troubleshooting
Trainer feels too snug across the midfoot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'parallel' or 'gap' lacing method to reduce pressure on the bridge of the foot.
Insole sliding during heavy movement
Ensure the insole is pressed firmly into the heel cup; if it continues to slip, consider using a small strip of double-sided fabric tape underneath.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure you are wearing the type of socks you intend to use for running while trying on the trainers. Because these trainers feature a cushioned interior, they may feel snug at first but will slightly contour to your foot over time. To maintain the life of your trainers, avoid machine washing; instead, spot clean the exterior with a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Remove the sockliner periodically to allow for thorough air drying, which helps in preventing odor buildup. Always air dry in a cool place away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping.
