FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, PUMA Karmen II Idol SD trainers generally run true to size, but we recommend measuring your feet and comparing them against the PUMA size guide.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No. Machine washing can ruin the suede material and compromise the integrity of the platform adhesive.
Are these suitable for running?
No, these are lifestyle fashion sneakers and are not designed for running or high-impact athletic activities.
What does SOFTFOAM+ mean?
SOFTFOAM+ is PUMA’s proprietary sockliner technology that provides plush, long-lasting comfort and soft cushioning for every step.
How do I protect the suede?
Use a water-repellent spray specifically formulated for suede and nubuck materials to guard against moisture and light staining.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap of the material by brushing in one consistent direction.
Stubborn surface stains on suede
Gently rub the area with a dedicated suede eraser and follow up with a light brushing.
Slipping inside the shoe
Ensure the laces are tightened properly; if the issue persists, consider a thin aftermarket insole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your PUMA Karmen II Idol SD trainers remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since these are made of suede, avoid wearing them in heavy rain or mud, as water can permanently spot the material. We recommend applying a specialized suede protector spray before the first wear. To clean, use a soft-bristle brush to gently remove surface dirt. Do not machine wash or tumble dry your trainers. If they become damp, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the suede from becoming stiff or discolored.
