FAQs

What does 'JR' in the product name mean?

JR stands for Junior, indicating that these sneakers are designed for kids and adolescents.

Are these sneakers suitable for running?

These sneakers are well-suited for light running and everyday active play, offering comfort and cushioning. For competitive running or intensive training, specialized athletic shoes might be more appropriate.

How do I know the correct size for my child?

It's best to measure your child's foot length and compare it to PUMA's official size chart for junior footwear. This variant is UK size 3.5.

Can these shoes be machine washed?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoe. Please follow the care instructions provided: wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.

What is PUMALite midsole made of?

PUMALite is a proprietary PUMA foam material designed to provide lightweight, responsive cushioning for enhanced comfort and energy return.

Do these shoes offer good ankle support?

As low-cut sneakers, they offer basic ankle support suitable for everyday activities. For sports requiring significant ankle stability, a higher-cut shoe or specialized support might be needed.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

First, double-check the size against a PUMA sizing chart. Ensure socks are appropriate thickness. If still uncomfortable, consider if the regular width is suitable for your child's foot shape.

Unpleasant odor develops

Remove the insoles (if possible) and allow them and the shoes to air out completely. You can also use shoe deodorizers or place a small sachet of baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.

Stains on the textile upper

Address stains promptly. Use a mild soap diluted in water with a soft cloth or brush to gently scrub the affected area. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid vigorous scrubbing to prevent damage to the textile.
