Full details
The Puma Suede XL in Black White (UK 7) is designed for the style-conscious adult male seeking a blend of classic design with modern comfort and a touch of elevation. Its key benefit is the chunky, height-boosting midsole combined with plush suede and signature Formstrip detailing for a standout look. A potential caveat is that the elevated sole might require a brief adjustment period for those accustomed to flatter footwear.

Troubleshooting
Suede color appears faded or dull
Use a suede brush to restore the nap and color. For deeper issues, a suede revitalizer product might be needed.
Stains on the suede material
Address stains immediately with a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
White sole or Formstrip is dirty
Use a damp cloth and a mild soap solution to gently clean the rubber and leather parts. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be effective on rubber soles.
