FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The PUMA Speedcat OG trainers are designed for casual wear and street style, not for rigorous athletic activities like running. They offer comfort for walking but lack the specific support and cushioning required for running.

How do I clean the 'Ultra Suede' upper?

Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a slightly damp cloth or a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

What does 'T-toe construction' mean?

T-toe construction refers to a specific shape of the toe box, often resembling the letter 'T', which is characteristic of many motorsport-inspired shoes, providing a streamlined look.

What is the SoftFoam+ footbed?

SoftFoam+ is PUMA's comfort insole technology, designed to provide soft cushioning underfoot for enhanced comfort throughout the day.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the suede offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to rain or wet conditions can damage the suede material and should be avoided. Consider using a suede protector spray.

What is the difference between Speedcat OG and other Speedcat models?

The 'OG' designation typically signifies an original or retro reissue of a classic model, often staying true to the original design specifications from its initial release year (1999 for the Speedcat).

What other colors are available for the Speedcat OG series?

The Speedcat OG series has been released in various colorways over time, including black, grey, and pale blue, often featuring contrasting Formstrips and sole units. Specific availability may vary.

Troubleshooting

Suede material looks matted or dirty.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap. For tougher stains, consult a professional suede cleaner or use a slightly damp cloth, ensuring to let it air dry completely afterwards.

Shoelaces are frayed or worn.

Replace the shoelaces with a new pair of similar length and material. PUMA or generic trainer laces are suitable.

Discomfort or rubbing during initial wear.

This is common with new footwear. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure the correct size is being worn and socks are appropriate for trainers.

Sole is losing grip.

Check the sole for embedded debris and clean thoroughly. If the tread is significantly worn down, the shoes may need replacement.

Care Instructions:

  • Upper Material: The 'Ultra Suede' upper should be cleaned gently. Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, as this can damage the suede texture.
  • Soles: Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  • Lining: If the interior becomes dirty, use a damp cloth to spot clean. Allow to air dry completely.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain color and material integrity. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
