FAQs
Are the Puma Mostro OG suitable for running?
No, the Puma Mostro OG are designed as lifestyle trainers for fashion and everyday wear. Their performance is optimized for comfort and style on urban streets, not for athletic running.
How do I clean the spiked outsole?
You can clean the spiked outsole by using a soft brush or an old toothbrush to remove dirt and debris from between the spikes. A damp cloth can also be used for general cleaning of the rubber.
What does 'vegan-certified' mean for these shoes?
Vegan-certified means that the product contains no animal-derived products or by-products and has not been tested on animals. This specific model adheres to these standards.
Can I adjust the fit of the shoes?
Yes, the Mostro OG features an elastic strap system with a hook-and-loop closure, allowing you to adjust the fit for increased comfort and security.
What is the main inspiration behind the Mostro OG design?
The design is a hybrid inspired by the sleek sprinting spikes of the 1960s and the surf shoes of the 1980s, combined with a modern, sculptural aesthetic.
What materials are used in the upper?
The upper is constructed from a mix of textile, rubber, and synthetic materials, with at least 20% of the upper being made from recycled materials.
Do the spikes on the outsole provide extra grip?
The rubber spikes are primarily a distinctive design feature. While they offer some traction, they are not intended for specialized athletic grip and contribute more to the shoe's unique aesthetic.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the elastic strap system. If still too tight, ensure you have selected the correct size, as the design has a regular fit.
Difficulty securing the strap
Ensure the hook-and-loop fastener is clean and free of debris. Press firmly to secure the strap.
Dirt accumulation on spikes
Use a small, stiff brush (like a toothbrush) to carefully clean out debris from between the rubber spikes on the outsole.
Material discoloration
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with a damp cloth rather than harsh chemicals to prevent fading.
