FAQs

Are the PUMA Speedcat OG trainers suitable for running?

The Speedcat OG trainers are designed for lifestyle and casual wear, inspired by racing aesthetics. They are not intended for high-impact athletic activities like running, as they lack the specialized support and cushioning found in performance running shoes.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a dry suede brush to remove dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first and avoid getting the suede wet.

What does 'IMEVA' stand for and what are its benefits?

IMEVA stands for Injection-Molded EVA. It's PUMA's material for a lightweight and comfortable feel, providing good cushioning and durability for everyday wear.

Are these trainers unisex?

While the Speedcat OG series often has gender-specific variations, the core design is inspired by motorsports and can be appreciated by all. Please check the specific product listing for gender designation.

What is the purpose of the tire-tread-inspired outsole?

The outsole features a pattern inspired by tire treads to provide enhanced grip and traction on various surfaces commonly encountered in urban environments.

Do PUMA's leather products support responsible manufacturing?

Yes, PUMA's leather products support responsible manufacturing via the Leather Working Group (LWG), promoting better environmental practices in the leather industry.

How should I store my Speedcat OG trainers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb any residual moisture.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede eraser for light marks. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner following product instructions. Protect with a waterproofing spray for suede.

Leather Formstrip is creased

Gently flex the shoe to ease creases. Avoid sharp bending. For persistent creases, consider using a leather conditioner.

Tread pattern on outsole showing wear

This is normal wear and tear with regular use on abrasive surfaces. For extended life, avoid excessive use on rough terrain.

General discomfort or tightness

Ensure you have the correct size. Wear with appropriate socks. Breaking them in with short periods of wear can help.
