I've owned about 5 pairs of Puma Suede's and for the most part loved them; however, it seems as if quality control is lacking on my last couple pair. I'll still keep buying them, but I do hope they address the fit issues.

Great casual shoes and great style. Comfortable, but run a half size small (I'm an 11.5 but went with a 12 in these and they fit perfect). If you have wide feet, these might feel a bit narrow but the suede has a bit of stretch to it and they break in nicely after one wearing. I have two pair of these in different colors; they are my favorite casual shoes.

I ordered these shoes late Saturday night and received them today, Monday, at 3:30 PM. Crazy fast shipping for free! I love VIP Zappos! I was lucky enough to get the last pair in my size in the grey and red combination. I love Puma and have owned multiple pairs over the years, and this is my favorite pair. The cushioning is incredible and they feel more true to size when compared to other Pumas that I have owned, probably because the toe area is not so narrow. I cannot say much for how well they hold up to wear as I only put them on five minutes ago, but the fact that I am already taking the time to write such a positive review says something...

Can't beat this classic look! Also tried the Adidas Campus 2 but the arch bump was excessive and uncomfortable. I have a slightly wider than normal foot, but less than a 'wide' size. Sides of little toes are getting pinched, but otherwise this shoe is very comfortable.

I've worn the same size of Puma Suedes for 16 years. The pair I just bought are slightly narrower than any pair I've owned before. It may only be a slight change, but it's noticeable when looking at them and putting them on. For me, they definitely feel different, but not necessarily uncomfortable. I still love 'em, but I sincerely hope they don't continue to narrow.

The primary thing I felt about this shoe when I first put it on is how much more I felt the ground beneath my feet. I like that sensation, but it's not for everyone. This is not a running shoe, to be sure! After having worn these for a year and a half now, the white leather on the sides is starting to come off the shoe, but I do wear them regularly. I can see myself getting another year of use out of them. I am regularly complimented on these and highly recommend them. They felt true to size for me (I wear a 13).

Overall these sneakers are pretty comfy. I have a slightly wider foot than most so it took a bit of breaking them in before they felt just right. The only thing that I found was the section where the insole meets the outer wall of the sneaker rides up the side which can bit a little uncomfortable but you just have to push it back down. All in all though I love them.

The Suede Classics seem to be a bit narrower than the Baskets and narrower than what I'm used to. I've ordered a half-size bigger to see if that will do the trick. Great looking shoes though. Well made.

The look is great. But for me, these seem to be narrow and a bit small. I feel like they are right on the edge for my size and I’m going to have to break them in.

I guess I have wide feet. As amazing they look in person, they just didn't fit right. It felt a little narrow at my arches and could tell they would need some serious breaking in. Maybe next time I'd go half a size up. Returning them for now.

i used to wear these shoes back before i was a teenager, when they were called the Clyde after Walt Frazier's nickname. they always looked pretty awesome so i figured i'd get another pair.
are sneakers only designed to last about a year now? not that i wore them every day but i did wear them a fair bit, and i was surprised to feel the heel of my left foot contacting the rubber top of the sole. kind of a drag but i guess they weren't too expensive to start with, so maybe it's a case of you get what you pay for.
They did feel a bit narrow in the toe box as compared to other non-running sneakers but did break in a bit. I might get another pair.

The PUMA Suede has always been one of my favorite shoes, but PUMA has definitely downgraded the quality with which they make sure shoe. The fit and style of these has always been great. But the last pair I received as a gift, the quality of materials and construction is just not there. After about five months of wear, wearing about 2-3 times per week, they began to show noticeable wear on the insole and inside lining. Quite unfortunate, because they ar some of my favorite shoes to wear.

Fit different between red and black/yellow ones. Got the Red in 7M/8.5 Womens. Too long and sloppy (length not that much too long but sloppy in ankle)
Black and Gold in 6.5M/8.0W They were a tad too short. The difference in feel was noticeable. These had more plush cushion and the tongue was thicker than the red ones. Very odd. Had to return both.

I've been buying these shoes for many years and I was not pleased to find that they've changed the materials. The inside and the tongue used to be a nice faux leather which shaped the shoe a bit differently. Not only that, but it gave an overall better feel to the shoe. Now they look cheaper, because they are cheaper. Even the tag on the inside of the tongue looks WAY cheaper. These are no longer that classic shoe.
In addition, these are the Suede+ when this site lists them as the Suede so I was pretty much sent an item I didn't purchase.

I ordered a mens 8 recently in the tricks suedes that Puma makes, they were actually a bit big so I ordered a 7.5 in these and they are outrageously too narrow for my feet. They literally are destroying my pinky toes. I am attempting to exchange but would just recommend giving up on a "perfect" fit with these. Still the best style shoes out, versatile and easy to match for work or out on the town.
I'd also recommend:
Adidas, Creative Reaction

I am conflicted about these shoes. I love the look and fit, but comfort is the challenge. They feel almost slipper-like when on, and that is good comfort. But the sole feels very thin. I can literally feel the texture and cracks of the pavement underfoot when I walk. They are so comfortable to put on, but not at all comfortable or supportive if you plan to do a lot of walking on anything firmer than well backed carpet. Form over function.

This is a classic pair I used back in college (some 20 years ago). I think the appearance have changed since then. The sole seems thinner. Fit is true to size. I felt that the image on the screen does not reflect the actual look of it. I mean, the suede black color is not that black in the actual.
I'd also recommend:
Try also Adidas Campus or Adidas Gazelle

I have to say I'm a bit let down... Puma suede classics used to be made of leather on the inside and last a long time. These new shoes have a fabric interior that just don't last long at all. I'm sorry, the materials are just cheaper now, but not the price...

This product may be called PUMA Suede Classic and it may look like the classic from a distance, but it is NOT the same shoe as the original. Very cheap shoe. I find that most of these 'throw back' shoes are the same. Where is Airwalk?

No cushioning in the heel or ball of the foot. Arch was too high for me.

This is the second pair of Pumas. The first one got a hole in the sole after over a year. This more recent pair had the same problem after a little over a month. I will never buy Puma again.

After 6 weeks of moderate use, the outside sole cracked underneath and so water now goes inside my left shoe whenever I wear the pair on a rainy day. It is the second time in a row that it happens with this model of PUMA shoes. So I just have to part with the brand... They have gone too far manufacturing on the cheap...
