Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or too tight on my child's foot.
Ensure the touch-fastened strap is adjusted correctly. It should be snug but not restrictive. Check the shoe size against your child's current foot measurements; children's feet grow quickly.
The grippy outsoles seem to lose traction.
Clean the soles thoroughly to remove any dirt, mud, or debris that might be reducing grip. Inspect the sole for excessive wear, which could indicate it's time for a new pair.
There's an unpleasant odor coming from the shoes.
Allow the shoes to air out completely after each use. Remove the sockliner (if possible) for better ventilation. Consider using an odor-absorbing product or sprinkling baking soda inside the shoes overnight.
Stains on the textile upper are difficult to remove.
For stubborn stains, gently scrub with a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and a mixture of mild soap and water. Always test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals.
The elastic laces seem stretched or damaged.
While elastic laces are designed for flexibility, excessive pulling or snagging can cause damage. Ensure your child is using the touch-fastened strap for adjustment rather than tugging on the laces. If damaged, contact PUMA customer service for possible solutions.

Care
Important: Always refer to the specific product label inside the shoe for the most accurate and detailed care instructions. General care tips often include:
- Spot Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap to gently wipe away dirt and stains from the textile and synthetic upper.
- Air Dry: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage materials.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing can degrade shoe materials and adhesives.
- Odor Control: For any odors, remove the sockliner (if removable) and air out the shoes. You can also use shoe deodorizers.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use.
