FAQs
Are these Puma Cell Vive Trainers suitable for running?
While they offer good shock absorption and comfort for general use, these trainers are not specifically designed for high-intensity or long-distance running. For dedicated running, specialized running shoes with features tailored to gait cycle and impact dynamics are recommended.
How do I choose the correct size?
Puma sizes generally run true to size. We recommend measuring your foot length and consulting Puma's official size chart. Ensure there is approximately a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe for optimal comfort.
Can I machine wash my trainers?
No, machine washing is strongly discouraged. The harsh cycle and detergents can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the trainers. Please follow the manual spot cleaning and air drying instructions provided in the care section.
What kind of socks should I wear with these trainers?
For optimal comfort and to manage moisture, especially during light activities, wear athletic socks made from moisture-wicking synthetic blends. Cotton socks are generally suitable for casual wear but may retain moisture during activity.
How often should I replace these trainers?
The lifespan of trainers varies based on frequency and intensity of use. For regular daily wear and light activities, it's common to consider replacement every 6 to 12 months. Signs like significant wear on the sole, reduced cushioning, or persistent discomfort indicate it's time for a new pair.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or rubbing
Ensure trainers are laced correctly for a secure but not overly tight fit. Verify you are wearing appropriate athletic socks. Check your sizing; foot measurements can change over time.
Squeaking sound from trainers
A common cause is the insole rubbing against the inside of the shoe. Try removing the insole, cleaning it and the shoe's interior, then reinserting. A thin layer of baby powder under the insole can also help reduce friction.
Laces frequently come untied
Always use a double knot when tying your laces for enhanced security. If the issue persists, consider replacing the laces with a material that offers more friction.
Trainers feel less cushioned over time
This is normal wear and tear. The foam sole's cushioning can compress with extensive use. Consider if it's time to replace your trainers if you notice significant loss of comfort and support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
- Unpack: Carefully remove your new Puma Cell Vive Trainers from their packaging.
- Lacing: Before wearing, ensure the laces are threaded correctly through all eyelets. Adjust the lacing to achieve a snug, yet comfortable fit across your foot.
- Adjustment: Once on your foot, pull the laces evenly to secure the shoe, then tie a firm knot (a double knot is recommended for added security). Ensure the padded ankle collar feels comfortable and supportive around your ankle.
Compatibility
- User: These trainers are designed for adult males.
- Activities: Ideal for general daily wear, casual walking, light fitness activities (e.g., gym, elliptical), and general leisure. They are not recommended for specialized sports requiring high-impact stability or specific athletic performance features.
Product Care
- Cleaning: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:
- Remove Loose Debris: Use a soft brush or dry cloth to gently remove any loose dirt or dust from the surface.
- Spot Clean: Mix a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) with lukewarm water. Dip a soft cloth or sponge into the solution and gently wipe down soiled areas.
- Wipe Residue: Use a separate damp cloth (with plain water) to wipe away any soap residue.
- Insoles: If insoles become damp or develop odor, remove them and hand wash separately with mild soap, then air dry completely.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers naturally. Avoid direct sunlight, radiators, or tumble dryers, as excessive heat can damage materials and adhesives. Stuffing with paper towels or newspaper can help absorb moisture and retain shoe shape.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight when not in use.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash, tumble dry, or use harsh chemical cleaners, as these can severely damage the shoe's construction and materials.
