Product Information

Full details

The PUMA Mostro OG Trainers in Wild Berry / Silver are designed for adults seeking a unique blend of retro sports and contemporary style. Their key benefit lies in their distinctive, experimental aesthetic that merges 60s sprinting spike and 80s surf shoe influences. A potential caveat is their unconventional design, which may not suit all style preferences. Key features include a breathable mesh upper, comfortable Lycra lining, a secure elastic strap closure, and a durable rubber outsole, all contributing to their stand-out appearance and hybrid functionality.

FAQs

What does 'Mostro' mean?

Mostro is derived from the Italian word for 'monster,' reflecting the shoe's original experimental and bold design.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

Gently wipe the mesh with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Allow to air dry completely.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The Mostro OG trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and fashion wear. While comfortable, they are not optimized for high-impact athletic activities like running.

What inspired the design of the Mostro OG?

The design draws inspiration from two distinct eras: the sleek, tough sprinting spikes of the 1960s and the relaxed surf shoes of the 1980s.

How does the elastic strap closure work?

The elastic strap goes over the foot, providing a secure and adjustable fit without the need for traditional laces. It offers a snug feel and easy on/off convenience.

What material is the lining made of?

The lining is made of Lycra, which provides a comfortable, snug, and flexible fit.

Can I wear these with socks?

Yes, you can wear them with or without socks. The Lycra lining provides comfort, but wearing thin socks might enhance comfort for some users, especially during longer wear.

Troubleshooting

Strap feels too tight or too loose

Adjust the elastic strap. If it feels consistently too tight, ensure your foot size is correct. If too loose, check for debris obstructing the closure mechanism or consider if the strap has lost elasticity over time.

Discomfort during initial wear

This is common with new footwear. Wear the trainers for short periods indoors to allow them to break in. Ensure you have the correct size and that the Lycra lining is smoothing out properly.

Mesh upper appears dirty or stained

Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water to gently clean the mesh. Blot the area and allow to air dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Rubber outsole showing wear

Regularly clean the outsole to prevent buildup of abrasive materials. If significant wear occurs, it may indicate heavy usage; consider purchasing a new pair if performance is compromised.

Pros and Cons

  • Unique and eye-catching design that stands out from typical footwear.
  • Comfortable fit due to the Lycra lining and elastic strap.

  • Lightweight feel suitable for all-day wear.

Cons

  • The experimental design might be polarizing for some.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the mesh and Lycra areas gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing.

  • Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  • Strap Maintenance: Ensure the elastic strap is clean and free from excessive dirt to maintain its elasticity and closure effectiveness.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box, to maintain shape and prevent damage.
