Customer Reviews PUMA Suede Classic

For the cost, I wasn't expecting too much, and they didn't disappoint in that regard. Build quality and material is what you'd expect in this price range. The tongue is very thin and there isn't a lot of support, but it is an overall comfortable shoe After reading all the reviews about the shoe running small, I ordered a size 10. Usually I wear a 9-9 1/2. They feel like a 10. I have an inch between my toe and the end of the shoe. I would say they run true to size for sure. The shoes came with regular blue laces and fat white laces. The main issue I have with these shoes is the color, as the picture did not represent it well at all. Puma calls this color "Spectrum Blue", but "Spectrum Purple" is a much closer description. They have a great style and they're very reasonably priced, but I don't know if that's enough to make me buy them again.

I bought these in the Olympian Blue & White. Ultimately I wasn't happy with the color/style and returned them. They are as blue as they appear in the pictures, so don't order them if you are thinking they will tone down in real life. There was a similar blue in the video that I liked better but it's not Olympian Blue for sure. From a size standpoint I felt they were right in line with what I normally wear.

Comfortable fitting sneaker but they do not seem to last that long. I've tried two or three pairs in the past three years and all failed with rips in the leather at the toebox folds. (Typical flex points of a shoe.) These are where the suede is glued to the side sole. It seems like the flex wears out the suede, a rip forms, and a blowout will soon follow.

I ordered this to replace old pair of Puma suede sneakers that I love. Unfortunately Puma has changed the design of this shoe, making the toe narrower and now uncomfortable.

Excellent colors. Width is good and felt true to size. Unfortunately they did not offer enough support for my high arches. Sadly I had to return them.

I usually wear a 8.5 (women's) in Pumas but need to order a half size up in these. I won't though, because I found them to be uncomfortable compared to my last pair. These rubbed on my heel and across the top of my toes just trying them out (with socks on).

These are really beautiful shoes; however, I can't seem to get the size down right. Weirdly, I originally was sent 7.5's when I ordered 8s. Zappos immediately remedied this situation (thank you) with grace and speed, but the 8s seem a lot bigger than expected, and I'm still wearing them around the house to figure it out. I think I'm a Puma in-between sizes person. Love that there are so many options for shoe sizes here though!

These shoes are okay. My older pair seem to have fit better than the most recent pair that I got. These were tight in the toe box.

I love the styling on these. After over 10 years of wearing mostly Timberlands, DC's and skate shoes like Osiris and Globe, I got these. I normally get wide shoes but they don't have them for these. My regular size which is 9 1/2 us fit fine in length but was too narrow so I had to get size 10 which gives be about an inch allowance between my toe and the tip of the shoe. The size 9 1/2 was about the same but my 5th and fourth toes were would rub up against the inside of the shoe. First thing I noticed when wearing them is that the padding is really soft, not what I'm used to and there seems to be no arch support at all. After about a week of using them, the foam is starting to form to my feet. I notice my feet slide around on the inside a lot even with the laces done tight. The soles are also too soft for my liking, maybe I'm used to tougher skate shoes and Timberlands but I can feel every little bump on the road I walk over, little pebbles and other stuff similar size as well. They look great but the soles are too soft, not firm enough for walking around the city for more than 3 hours at a time. Not sure how the sole softness will keep over time, I hope these last me more than a year.

I bought these shoes with the intention of wearing them through winter in Chicago. I wanted something with a thick sole to protect my feet from the cold sidewalks. While I accomplished this goal, I have to say that I did so unhappily. These shoes have zero arch support and very little cushioning. The soles had very little traction on wet ground. These shoes also doesn't vent very well, so expect your feet to get sweaty. I wouldn't buy them again.

This is a nice, classic shoe but is seriously uncomfortable. It took about a week to break it in since I could only stand to wear them a couple hours each day.

Well, they look great and I love the fat laces they come with but these feel different than other Pumas I've bought. They are pretty wide. I'm a solid C width and even if I were to go a 1/2 size smaller, they'd still be far to wide. I put a double cushion insole w/ arch support in to fill them up. So far that seems to do the trick.

These shoes feel nice when you first put them on, but under regular wear, they start to rub. Maybe they'll break in? I won't find out, though. Nobody's got time for shoes that hurt your feet!

Nice casual shoe, but I wouldn't recommend these if you'll be doing a lot of distance/walking. They rubbed in spots and I ended up with blisters while breaking them in, something that I've never had an issue with with other shoes in this style.

left shoe was much narrower .... returned as did not 'feel good' ! needed WHITE laces too!

I got Pumas at the outlet and loved them. Thought these would be the same, but they are so narrow they hurt my feet so badly. I won't be wearing them, but also can't return them as I've warn them. Very disappointing purchase!

Really disappointed with these and had to return. Thought by the reviews I could get away with ordering a half size larger and no problems. That didn't work out so well. The toe area is too narrow, as in ballet shoes narrow. If I ordered them any larger my feet would slide around in them, but the toes would still be crushed. Life is too short to crush your toes in uncomfortable shoes. Really sad as they looked great.

I've been wearing these same shoes for years. They fit great and are super comfortable, but every pair I buy lately seems to last shorter than the previous pair before developing a hole in the sole. I think Puma has started using cheaper materials - the last two pairs only lasted 6 months!

Stylish fairly comfy but wore a hole on the side after 3 months

NOT UNISEX ordered the women's 9 and it was GARGANTUAN. clearly a men's shoe not a unisex shoe. very handsome otherwise.

The shoes are a cool style but my son's pair has a manufacturer's defect that doesn't show up until later. Here's what I sent to PUMA: (I have yet to get it resolved.) I am super bummed that my son's shoes have done something so weird. The top front of the shoe has layers of suede and fabric. Somehow, between the layers, the lining has balled up. There is no way to get at it, there are hard balls of lining pressing on his toes and they are very uncomfortable. He has worn them for a while so cannot be returned but they still have a lot of life in them. It is such an odd thing. He has the blue suede old school sneakers, we got them from zappos a few months ago. Please advise me on the next step in getting him some comfort in what seems to be a manufacturer's defect. Also, I would like to add that they have never been wet and he has done nothing out of the ordinary to cause such an odd thing to go on. We shall see if they help or not. I know Zappos has a great return policy but he has worn these for a few months. It should be fixed by Puma. I hate the extra hassle but am not sure what else to do.

These shoes are beautiful, but they are really uncomfortable and stiff. I did not want to break them in.

very uncomfortable
