FAQs

Are the PUMA Speedcat OG trainers suitable for running?

The Speedcat OG is primarily a lifestyle sneaker inspired by motorsport. While comfortable for walking and light activity, they do not offer the specialized cushioning and support required for serious running or athletic training.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is crafted from premium cow leather, with some variations potentially using suede as indicated in their specific product details.

How should I clean the leather upper?

Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild leather cleaner. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

Do these shoes come in other colors?

The PUMA Speedcat OG series is available in a range of colorways. Please check the product listings for available options, as the specific color (Black/White) is one of several variations.

What does 'OG' stand for in Speedcat OG?

'OG' typically stands for 'Original' or 'Original Gangster', indicating that this model is a reissue or faithful representation of the original design.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the leather material and maintain comfort.

What is the fit like?

The Speedcat OG features a low-profile, rounded toe design. They generally fit true to size, but individuals with wider feet may find them snug. Trying them on or consulting size charts is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to naturally mold to your foot. If still uncomfortable, consider using thicker socks during wear or exploring professional shoe stretching services.

Leather shows creases or scuffs

Minor creases are natural with leather. For scuffs, try a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cleaner. For deeper scuffs, consult a professional cobbler.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

The rubber sole offers traction, but performance can vary on extremely wet or polished surfaces. Ensure soles are clean. For added grip on specific surfaces, consider adding sole grips.
