FAQs
What does 'Mostro' mean?
'Mostro' is the Italian word for 'monster'. The shoe's name reflects its bold and distinctive design.
Are these suitable for running?
The PUMA Mostro trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. They are not recommended for high-impact running or specialized athletic training due to their specific sole construction.
How do I adjust the fit?
The fit is adjusted using the hook-and-loop (Velcro) fastening system. Simply lift the strap to loosen and press it down firmly to secure the fit.
What inspired the design of the Mostro?
The Mostro design is inspired by two PUMA shoes: a sprint shoe from 1968 and a surf shoe from the 1980s, creating a unique fusion of sport and lifestyle aesthetics.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, you can wear the PUMA Mostro trainers with or without socks, depending on your preference and the weather. Many users find them comfortable with thin or no-show socks.
What materials are used in the PUMA Mostro?
This version features a textile base for the upper and an elastic Velcro fastening system. The sole is a low-studded design.
Troubleshooting
Velcro strap losing its grip
Clean both the hook and loop sides of the fastener with a small brush or a damp cloth to remove any trapped dirt or fibers.
Trainer feels uncomfortable after extended wear
Ensure you have the correct size. The Mostro is designed for a snug fit, but if discomfort persists, consider wearing them for shorter periods initially to allow your feet to adjust.
Discoloration on the textile upper
Use a clean, slightly damp cloth to gently wipe the affected area. Avoid using colored cleaning cloths that could transfer dye.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for unisex adult wear. They pair well with a wide range of casual clothing.
Care Instructions: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Mostro trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the textile upper with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Sole: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove dirt from the low-studded sole. For tougher marks, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by a wipe with a clean, damp cloth.
- Fastening System: Ensure the hook-and-loop (Velcro) fasteners are free from debris (like lint or threads) to maintain their grip. A small brush can be used for cleaning the hook and loop surfaces.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
