FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, the Puma Flexfocus Modern Running Shoes are designed with comfort and flexibility in mind, making them suitable for all-day wear for active children.

How do the elasticated laces work?

The elasticated laces are designed to expand, allowing your child to easily slip their foot into the shoe. They provide a comfortable, flexible fit that adapts to movement, while the touch-fastened strap offers adjustable security.

What kind of activities are these shoes best for?

These shoes are best for a variety of light to moderate activities such as running, playing at the park or playground, school activities, and casual everyday wear.

Can these shoes be washed in a machine?

It is generally not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Always refer to the product label for specific care instructions to avoid damage. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is usually the safest method.

What material is the sole made from?

The soles of the Puma Flexfocus Modern Running Shoes are made from EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate), which provides lightweight cushioning and support.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The primary composition of these shoes includes textile and synthetic materials. While they offer protection from light splashes, they are not designed to be fully waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or deep puddles.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too loose or too tight.

Adjust the touch-fastened strap. Ensure it is snug but not constricting. The elasticated laces provide some flexibility, but the strap is key for fine-tuning the fit. Check the sizing to ensure it's appropriate for your child's feet.

Reduced grip on outsoles.

Inspect the outsoles for dirt, mud, or small stones lodged in the tread. Clean them thoroughly with a brush and water to restore optimal traction. Avoid walking on excessively slippery surfaces if the soles are worn.

Unpleasant odor from shoes.

Allow the shoes to air out completely after each use. Remove any insoles (if removable) to air separately. Consider using shoe deodorizers or a sprinkle of baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.

Strap not holding securely.

Check the hook-and-loop (Velcro) fasteners for lint, dirt, or other debris that might be preventing them from sticking properly. Use a stiff brush or a fine-toothed comb to clean out the debris. If the strap is worn, its effectiveness may diminish over time.

Care

Proper care will help maintain the shoes' quality and prolong their lifespan.

  • Cleaning: Refer to the product label inside the shoe for specific care instructions. Generally, spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is recommended for textile and synthetic materials. Avoid harsh chemicals.
