FAQs

Are the PUMA Mostro OG Sneakers true to size?

It is generally recommended to consult the PUMA size guide for the most accurate fit, as sizing can vary slightly between models and individuals.

Can I wear these for running or sports?

While inspired by sprinting spikes, the Mostro OG are primarily designed for lifestyle and fashion. They are not recommended for rigorous athletic activities.

How do I clean the spiked sole?

Use a soft brush to remove dirt and debris from the spiked sole. Avoid using water or cleaning agents directly on the spikes unless necessary, and ensure they are dry afterwards.

What is the origin of the 'Mostro' name?

The name 'Mostro' is derived from the Italian word for 'monster,' reflecting the shoe's unconventional and bold design.

Are these sneakers suitable for wide feet?

The Mostro OG features a low-profile design. Those with significantly wide feet might find them snug; it's advisable to check user reviews or try them on if possible.

What makes the design hybrid?

The design is a hybrid of '60s sprinting spikes and '80s surfing shoes, combining elements from both to create a unique silhouette and sole.

What care instructions should I follow for the 'Intense Lavender' color?

Follow general care instructions. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap as needed.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces to see if it subsides. Ensure the insoles are properly seated.

Difficulty putting on the shoes

The unique design might require a specific way to slip on. Ensure your heel is fully back and try using a shoehorn if needed.

Spikes on the sole feel loose

Minor looseness might be normal for the design. However, if spikes feel significantly detached, contact customer support.

Color transfer onto socks

This can happen with new, brightly colored footwear. It is recommended to wear socks that match the shoe color or darker socks until color transfer has ceased.
