FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

No, the PUMA Speedcat OG is designed as a lifestyle shoe with motorsport-inspired aesthetics, intended for casual wear rather than performance running or athletic activities.

How do I determine my correct size?

We recommend referring to the official PUMA size chart. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up due to the sleek, low-profile design.

Can I wear these in the rain?

Suede is not ideal for wet conditions. While a protective spray can offer some resistance, prolonged exposure to rain should be avoided to prevent water damage and staining. If they do get wet, follow the drying instructions in the care section.

What makes these shoes 'OG'?

OG stands for 'Original,' indicating that this iteration is a direct reissue or closely inspired by the design that first debuted in 1999, maintaining its iconic features and silhouette.

Is the sole slippery?

The tire-tread-inspired rubber outsole is designed to provide reliable grip on most dry, urban surfaces. However, as with any shoe, performance on very wet or icy surfaces may vary.

Can I clean the Formstrip?

The 'Frosted Ivory' Formstrip can be gently wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed, being careful not to get excessive moisture on the surrounding suede.

Are they true to size?

Generally, PUMA Speedcat models are considered to be true to size, but some users find the low-profile design to be snug. If you prefer a looser fit or have wider feet, you might consider going up half a size.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or matted

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently restore the nap and lift any compressed fibers. Brush in a single direction.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have the correct size. If slightly snug, wear them for short periods initially to allow the suede to conform to your foot. For persistent discomfort, consider using shoe stretchers or consulting a shoe specialist.

Scuff marks on the suede

Gently rub the scuff with a suede eraser or a clean, soft pencil eraser. Then, use a suede brush to restore the nap.

Shoes squeak when walking

This is rare but can happen if insoles shift or rub. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe, and reinserting the insole.

These shoes require no specific 'setup' other than choosing the correct size and lacing them comfortably. They are highly compatible with a range of casual and smart-casual outfits, from denim to tailored shorts or chinos. Care Instructions for Suede: 1. Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality suede protector spray to guard against water and stains. 2. Cleaning: For light dirt, use a soft suede brush to gently brush off debris in one direction. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be effective. 3. Stains: For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing, as this can spread the stain. For dried stains, use a suede brush and eraser. For stubborn stains, professional suede cleaning may be required. 4. Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and maintain shape, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. 5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape and prevent creasing. 6. Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
