Puma Easy Rider - White - Suede - 5.5

No, machine washing is not recommended for the Puma Easy Rider, especially due to the suede and leather components. The harsh detergents and agitation can damage the materials, cause shrinkage, or alter the shoe's shape. Always follow the specific cleaning instructions for suede and textile materials.

While the Easy Rider has a heritage rooted in running, this modern iteration is designed for casual wear and fashion rather than athletic performance. For actual running, we recommend choosing specialized running shoes from Puma's performance line.

Before the first wear and periodically thereafter, apply a high-quality suede and nubuck protector spray. This creates a barrier against water and stains. Always test the spray on an inconspicuous area first and allow it to dry completely.

Generally, Puma Easy Rider sneakers tend to fit true to size. However, fit can vary slightly based on individual foot shape. If you are unsure, you may refer to Puma's official sizing chart or try them on.

The Leather Working Group (LWG) is a global multi-stakeholder community committed to driving environmental best practices across the leather supply chain. Their certification indicates that the leather used in your shoes comes from tanneries that have met strict environmental standards regarding water, energy, and waste management.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, apply a small amount of suede cleaner specifically designed for the material, following the product instructions carefully. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Like many new shoes, the Easy Rider may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations at first, gradually increasing wear time, to allow the materials to conform to your feet.

Do not use direct heat to dry them. Stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape, then allow them to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat. Once dry, gently brush the suede to restore its texture.

Periodically clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt, mud, or debris that might be impacting grip. Ensure the outsole is completely dry before wearing.
