Product Information

Full details

The PUMA Tackle trainers are designed for adults seeking a retro, sporty look with a comfortable, everyday feel. Their key benefit lies in the vintage-inspired design combined with an ultra-thin sole for a classic terrace style. A potential caveat is that the suede upper may require specific care to maintain its appearance. Key features include a suede and mixed-material upper, a textile lining and cushioning, and a durable rubber sole.

FAQs

What materials are the PUMA Tackle trainers made from?

The uppers are made of 70% leather and 30% other materials, primarily suede. The lining and cushioning are 100% textile, and the sole is 100% rubber.

Are these trainers suitable for playing sports?

The PUMA Tackle trainers are designed with a retro sporty aesthetic and an ultra-thin sole, making them ideal for casual wear and light activities. They are not specifically designed for high-impact or specialized sports performance.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

For suede, use a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water excessively, and always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

What does 'terrace' style refer to?

Terrace style refers to a type of casual footwear inspired by trainers worn by football fans (ultras) in the UK, particularly in the 1970s and 1980s. It typically involves low-profile, often suede or leather, shoes with simple designs.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

Yes, the PUMA Tackle trainers are available in various colorways, including Pink and White, across different sizes.

What is the main benefit of the ultra-thin sole?

The ultra-thin sole contributes to the true vintage feel of the trainers and provides a streamlined, subtle look that is characteristic of classic retro designs.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede trainers in wet weather as moisture can damage the material and cause discoloration or staining. It's best to keep them dry.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently brush away dry dirt. For tougher stains, try a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth, followed by allowing the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat.

Laces are worn or dirty.

Replace worn laces with new ones. Dirty laces can often be cleaned by hand washing with mild soap and water, then air drying.

Sole feels slippery.

Ensure the rubber sole is clean and dry. If the wear pattern on the sole suggests it's significantly worn down, replacement may be considered, though this is typically a long-term issue.

Color transfer from suede to socks.

This can sometimes occur with new suede products, especially in darker colors or when wet. It usually lessens with wear. Ensure the shoes are thoroughly dry before wearing.

Care Advice:

  • Uppers: Composed of 70% leather and 30% other materials. For suede areas, use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and follow with a suede eraser for stains. For smooth leather, use a damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner if necessary.
  • Lining: 100% textile. Can be spot cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid soaking.
  • Cushioning: 100% textile. Spot clean with a damp cloth.
  • Sole: 100% rubber. Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Ensure the sole is dry before wearing.
  • General Care: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or excessive moisture, which can damage the suede and leather. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
