FAQs
What does 'Mostro' mean?
'Mostro' is the Italian word for 'monster'. The name reflects the shoe's bold and unconventional design.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Mostro OG Prime trainers are designed primarily as lifestyle and casual athletic footwear. While they offer good cushioning and traction, the experimental spiked outsole is not optimized for competitive running and may be unsuitable for road running.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Puma, typically aligning your UK shoe size. The Mostro OG Prime in this listing is a UK 7.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials and the structure of the shoe. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and a soft brush is the preferred method.
What is the main inspiration behind the Mostro design?
The design is a hybrid, drawing inspiration from the sleek lines of '60s sprinting spikes and the laid-back aesthetic of '80s surf shoes.
Are there other colorways available?
Yes, the Mostro series is available in various colorways, though this specific 'OG Prime' model is presented in Mountain Blue and PUMA White. Check for other listings for different color options.
How durable is the spiked outsole?
The spiked rubber outsole is designed for durability and grip. However, excessive wear on abrasive surfaces or improper cleaning can affect its longevity.
Troubleshooting
Hook-and-loop strap not securing properly.
Ensure the hook-and-loop surfaces are clean and free of lint or debris. If the strap is worn, it may need replacement.
Reduced grip on smooth surfaces.
The spiked outsole is optimized for traction on varied terrain. For highly polished or wet surfaces, grip may be reduced. Clean the sole to remove any dirt or residue that might be hindering performance.
Discomfort after initial wear.
The shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the strap is adjusted for optimal comfort.
Material creasing or wear.
Some creasing is normal with leather and synthetic materials during wear. To minimize excessive wear, follow the recommended care instructions and avoid exposing the shoes to extreme conditions.

Compatibility:
The Puma Mostro OG Prime trainers are designed as versatile lifestyle and casual athletic footwear. They are compatible with a wide range of casual outfits, from jeans and shorts to joggers.

Care:
