FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for driving?
Yes, the PUMA Speedcat's original design was as a driving shoe. Its low-profile sole and sleek construction can offer improved pedal feel, making them well-suited for driving.
How do I clean the blue suede material?
Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a suede eraser or a specific suede cleaner following its instructions. Avoid getting them wet, and never machine wash.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the PUMA Speedcat Trainers are not waterproof. Suede is sensitive to water and can stain or be damaged if exposed to wet conditions. We recommend applying a suede protector spray.
What is `IMEVA`?
`IMEVA` stands for Injection Molded EVA (Ethyl Vinyl Acetate). It's a lightweight, cushioned material used in the midsole of these trainers to provide comfort and shock absorption.
Can I wear these for sports or running?
While stylish, these trainers are designed for casual wear and street fashion, not for high-performance sports, running, or intensive physical activities. Their construction and material are optimized for comfort and style rather than athletic support.
How do I know what size to choose?
The PUMA Speedcat Trainers are typically true to size in UK sizing (this model is UK 6). However, the racing-inspired silhouette can lead to a snug fit. If you prefer a looser fit or have wider feet, you might consider going a half size up. Refer to PUMA's official size guide for precise measurements.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted
Gently brush the suede with a dry suede brush in one direction to restore its nap and remove light dust. For deeper cleaning, use a suede eraser.
Water stains on suede
If stains occur, lightly dampen the entire affected area with a spray of clean water, then blot with a clean cloth. Allow to air dry naturally, then brush to restore the nap. A professional suede cleaner may be needed for stubborn stains.
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
The Speedcat has a low-profile, race-inspired fit. Allow a few wears for the suede to stretch and conform to your foot. If discomfort persists, consider trying a half size up if available, or using a shoe stretcher designed for suede.
Outsole loses grip
Ensure the outsoles are clean from dirt or debris. If the rubber tread is significantly worn down, the shoe's grip will naturally diminish over time. This is a sign of extensive use.
General dirt and scuffs
For non-suede parts, wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For suede, use a suede brush and eraser. Regular cleaning prevents build-up.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Distinctive Style: Blends motorsport heritage with modern streetwear for a unique fashion statement.
- Comfortable Wear: `IMEVA` midsole provides lightweight cushioning for all-day comfort.
- Premium Materials: High-quality suede uppers offer a luxurious look and feel.
- Versatile Aesthetic: Easily pairs with various casual outfits, from jeans to more tailored looks.
- Responsible Sourcing: Leather products support responsible manufacturing practices via the Leather Working Group.
Cons
- Suede Care Required: The suede material demands specific cleaning and maintenance to prevent damage.
- Limited Weather Resistance: Suede is not ideal for wet conditions and can be prone to water stains.
- Not for High-Impact Sports: Designed for style and casual wear, not for athletic performance requiring significant support or cushioning.
- Potentially Narrow Fit: The race-inspired silhouette may offer a snug fit, which might not suit all foot shapes.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
First Use & Fitting
Upon receiving your PUMA Speedcat Trainers, try them on to ensure the correct fit. As racing-inspired shoes, they may have a snugger fit than traditional trainers. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the suede to adapt to your foot shape.
Compatibility
These trainers are designed for casual and streetwear fashion. They are compatible with a wide range of casual attire, including:
- Jeans and chinos
- Shorts
- Casual trousers
- Light jackets and hoodies
They are not recommended for athletic activities such as running, extensive sports, or heavy outdoor use due to the nature of the suede material and low-profile sole.
Product Care & Maintenance
Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your suede PUMA Speedcat Trainers.
- Protect Before Wear: Apply a high-quality suede protector spray to create a barrier against water and stains. Repeat periodically as per product instructions.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
- Spot Cleaning: For small marks or scuffs, use a suede eraser or a slightly damp (not wet) clean cloth. Gently rub the affected area. Avoid excessive moisture.
- Deep Cleaning: For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Avoid Water: Suede is highly susceptible to water damage. Try to avoid wearing your trainers in rain or wet conditions. If they do get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and let them air dry naturally away from direct heat.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Do Not Machine Wash: Never put suede trainers in a washing machine or dryer, as this will damage the material and construction.
