FAQs
What is the inspiration behind the Mostro OG Prime design?
The Mostro OG Prime design is a hybrid creation inspired by the sprinting spikes of the 1960s and the surfing shoes of the 1980s, combined with modern streetwear aesthetics.
Are these shoes suitable for running or athletic training?
While inspired by athletic designs, the Mostro OG Prime is primarily a fashion sneaker intended for casual wear and streetwear. They are not designed for high-impact sports or professional athletic training.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the PUMA sizing chart for accurate measurements. The UK size 7.5 is specified for this particular model. Consider the low-profile fit when deciding between sizes if you are between measurements.
What does 'Mostro' mean?
'Mostro' is the Italian word for 'monster,' reflecting the shoe's bold and unconventional design.
Can the elastic strap be removed?
The elastic strap is an integral part of the shoe's design for fastening and fit. It is not designed to be removed.
How should I care for the spiked sole?
Gently clean the spiked sole with a small brush to remove any debris stuck between the moulded rubber spikes. Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
What is the primary benefit of the spiked sole?
The moulded rubber spikes on the outsole and sidewalls provide distinctive styling and enhanced traction on various surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
The PUMA Mostro OG Prime has a unique construction. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the materials to break in and conform to your foot shape.
Traction feels different than expected.
The moulded rubber spikes provide unique grip. They are designed for enhanced traction on various surfaces but may feel different during normal walking. Ensure no debris is trapped between the spikes.
Difficulty with the elastic strap.
The elastic strap is designed to provide a secure fit. If it feels too tight or too loose, try adjusting how the shoe is positioned on your foot before fastening the strap. The strap is not intended for extensive stretching.
Cleaning the spiked sole is challenging.
Use a small, stiff brush (like an old toothbrush) to gently dislodge dirt and debris from between the moulded rubber spikes. Follow up with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These sneakers are primarily designed for casual wear and streetwear. They pair well with a variety of casual outfits, including jeans, shorts, track pants, and dresses. While the spiked sole offers enhanced traction, they are not intended for professional athletic performance.
Care: To maintain the appearance and integrity of your Mostro OG Prime sneakers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the textile and synthetic upper. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Cleaning the Sole: The moulded rubber spikes can be cleaned with a brush (an old toothbrush works well) to remove debris lodged between them. Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat or sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and moisture.
