FAQs
What is the main difference between the Speedcat Wedge and the original Speedcat?
The primary difference is the Speedcat Wedge features a concealed wedge heel for added height and a more stylized look, while the original Speedcat has a flat sole.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and style, not for high-impact athletic activities. The wedge heel can affect stability during intense movement.
How do I clean the metallic accents?
Gently wipe the metallic accents with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using any liquids or abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
What type of closure do these trainers have?
They feature statement hook-and-loop straps for closure, offering an adjustable and secure fit.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the rubber outsole offers some protection, suede is not ideal for wet conditions. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to preserve the material.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made of suede, including the PUMA Formstrip.
What does IMEVA stand for and what is its benefit?
IMEVA stands for Injection-Molded EVA. It provides lightweight cushioning and a comfortable feel.
Troubleshooting
Hook-and-loop strap losing grip
Clean the hook and loop surfaces gently with a soft brush to remove lint and dirt. Ensure they are dry before re-fastening.
Suede looking dull or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, attempt spot cleaning with a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry completely.
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size. If the shoe is new, wear them for short periods to allow them to break in. Check that the straps are adjusted for a snug but not overly tight fit.
Outsole wear
Regularly check the outsole for significant wear. Consider a cobbler for professional resoling if extensive wear occurs, though this may be costly for trainers.
