FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday school wear?
Yes, with their durable construction, comfortable fit, and easy on-and-off design, the Puma Flexfocus Running Shoes are an excellent choice for daily school activities and playtime.
How do the elasticated laces work?
The elasticated laces are designed to allow the shoe to stretch, making it easy for children to slip their feet in and out without needing to tie traditional laces. The hook-and-loop strap then secures the fit.
What materials are used in these shoes?
The upper is made from a combination of textile and synthetic materials, providing durability and breathability. The sockliner and lining are textile, and the sole is made from grippy EVA for traction and lightweight comfort.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the shoe's structure, materials, and adhesives. Please refer to the specific care instructions on the product label for proper cleaning.
Are these shoes good for running and sports?
Absolutely. The lightweight design, breathable mesh upper, and grippy EVA outsole are all features that make these shoes well-suited for running, active play, and various sports activities for kids.
How do I ensure the best fit for my child?
Ensure your child tries them on with the type of socks they'll typically wear. The hook-and-loop strap should be adjusted to provide a snug, secure fit without being too tight or allowing the foot to slip. There should be a small amount of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Ensure the hook-and-loop strap is adjusted correctly. It should be snug enough to secure the foot without causing discomfort or restricting circulation. If the size feels completely wrong, verify against the child's foot measurements and consider a different size.
Shoes get dirty quickly after active play.
After each use, gently wipe down the upper with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher grime, follow the spot cleaning instructions under 'Care Instructions'.
Reduced grip on soles.
Check the EVA outsole for accumulated dirt or debris. Clean the treads thoroughly with a brush and water to restore optimal traction. Inspect for excessive wear on the sole, which might indicate it's time for a new pair.
Foot odor develops.
Ensure your child wears breathable socks. After use, remove any insoles (if removable) to allow them and the shoes to air out completely. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight.

- Refer to Product Label: Always check the specific care instructions on the shoe's internal label for the most accurate information.
- Spot Cleaning: For general dirt and grime, gently wipe the textile and synthetic upper with a damp cloth. Use mild soap if necessary, then wipe with a clean, damp cloth to remove any residue.
- Air Dry: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as these can damage materials.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing is generally not recommended for athletic shoes as it can damage their structure and materials.
