FAQs
What activities are these shoes best suited for?
The PUMA Axelion Block Running Shoes are ideal for road running, treadmill workouts, general gym activities, long walks, and everyday casual wear where comfort and athletic style are desired.
How should I clean my PUMA Axelion shoes?
Gently wipe the textile upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Clean the rubber outsole with a brush to remove dirt. Always air dry away from direct heat and avoid machine washing.
What is the purpose of the 'foam heel unit'?
The foam heel unit is designed to provide advanced cushioning and absorb impact effectively, enhancing comfort and reducing stress on your feet and joints during activities like running and walking.
Does the 'TPU shank' offer arch support?
The TPU shank primarily provides midfoot stability and torsional rigidity, which indirectly supports the foot's structure. While it contributes to overall foot health, dedicated arch support may vary based on individual foot shape and needs. Info needed: Consult with a footwear specialist if you require specific arch support.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the textile upper is breathable but not designed to be waterproof. They will offer some resistance to light splashes, but heavy rain will likely penetrate the material.
Can I use these shoes for competitive sports?
While suitable for general athletic training, for competitive or specialized sports requiring specific features like aggressive traction for court sports or heavy-duty stability for weightlifting, more specialized footwear might be a better choice.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Always refer to the PUMA size guide. It's recommended to try them on at the end of the day when your feet are slightly larger. Ensure there's a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the lacing to relieve pressure points. Wear appropriate athletic socks.
Poor grip or slipping
Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly to remove any embedded dirt or debris. Check the tread for significant wear; if worn smooth, the shoes may need replacement.
Unpleasant odor develops
Allow shoes to air out completely after each use. Remove insoles if possible and air dry them separately. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside overnight.
Material damage or fraying on upper
For minor fraying, trim loose threads carefully. For significant damage, professional repair might be an option, but often, it indicates the shoes are nearing the end of their lifespan.

Compatibility: These shoes are ideal for road running, gym workouts, walking, and general athletic casual wear. They pair well with athletic socks designed for moisture-wicking and cushioning. Care: 1. Cleaning the Textile Upper: For dirt and stains, gently wipe with a damp cloth using mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing, as this can damage materials and adhesives. Allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat. 2. Cleaning the Outsole: Use a brush (like an old toothbrush) to remove dirt and debris from the rubber outsole tread to maintain optimal grip. 3. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve material integrity. 4. Odor Control: If odors develop, remove insoles (if removable) and air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or baking soda sprinkled inside the shoes overnight.
