r/PUMA

Hi everyone.

I recently purchased Puma Velocity 4 to replace my Adidas Evo SL due to high wear (more than 500km).

In combination with these shoes, I am using Asics Novablast 5.

This week, I am trying the Puma Velocity (2 runs, 10 km each), and I feel pain only on my right foot, focused on the midsole/external part (circled area).

I searched online, and it seems that these shoes are very narrow, more so than the two pairs I am currently using. Could this be the problem?

Has anyone else had the same issue and solved it, perhaps after a few runs with the shoes?

I have no problems like this with Novablast 5 and Evo SL.

Hi everyone!

Do you think there is a chance of the size 9.5 restocking on their website? I ordered the size 9 and I just got them in today, but they are too small 😭 I already initiated the return and added the size 9.5 to my cart, but then no more than 10 mins later it says sold out.

I’m contemplating keeping the size 9 if they won’t restock, as I absolutely love the shoe and was soooo excited to have this specific style and color. I should’ve gone with my gut and ordered the size 9.5 to begin with, but now it’s sold out 💔

Thank you in advance!

Anyone know what's up? Literally everything on the website is "Sold Out"? Gonna go out on a limb that this isn't true. lol

Puma Speedcats have genuinely been one of the most disappointing sneakers I’ve owned.

Wore them barely 2–3 times. Used a standard suede sneaker foam cleaner, and the black dye started bleeding all over the white Puma logo instantly. The shoes looked destroyed after ONE basic cleaning session.

Even professional cleaning through Tumbledry couldn’t fix it. For a shoe with an MRP close to ₹10k, this quality is honestly embarrassing. A sneaker at this price point shouldn’t fall apart because of normal maintenance.

What made the experience worse was Puma’s response:

• Return the damaged shoes
• Get a restrictive coupon worth INR 2900
• Coupon still isn’t enough to replace the same pair

So after spending hard-earned money on a premium sneaker, the solution offered is basically “give the shoes back and settle for store credit.”

The design may look good, but the material quality and dye finishing on my pair have been absolutely pathetic. Never expected such low level of quality control from Puma.

Alright, season's open. Hope the snow's gone everywhere in Moscow. Decided to go all out this time and bought some mink oil 🧈, gently massaged every centimeter of my new kicks 👟. When light hits them, I not only see the gleam but I can almost smell that fresh asphalt aroma. THATS SOME DEEP DARK COLOR.

To flex my individuality I ripped the white laces off another pair of Pumas (same Rebound model), so my diamond lacing makes even the most deadend sneakerheads drool. Lets hope this mink oil holds up better than Oceangate's Titan carbon fiber. No cap. Weird flex? Ok.

highkey one of my best sneaker purchases.

I ordered those shoes on Novus Shoes a company from Puerto Rico and I was wondering if it is legit and you get the authentic items because I saw they even had an actual store in PR. Just they haven’t sent this package for a few days.

Asking before i buy!! also hows the sizing compared to normal speed cat sneakers? should i get the same size? Thanks!

Hi everyone, so i bought my speedcats about 2 months ago and have been wearing them, tried to clean with a wet cloth today abd i an afraid i ruined them . Any clue on how to make it better

I found these at a secondhand store for $20 but have never seen anything like them before and no examples online. Manufactured in December 2006 by the looks of it. I think they're beautiful and scooped them up without hesitation. Appears to be good quality leather and suede with gum soles.
