FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Karmen II Idol is designed as a lifestyle and fashion trainer, not for athletic performance or high-impact running.
How should I clean the suede upper?
Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to remove surface debris. Avoid water or household cleaners that can damage the suede texture.
Does the platform sole make them heavy?
While the platform adds a rugged look, the materials are selected to balance weight and durability for comfortable daily wear.
Is the SOFTFOAM+ sockliner removable?
The sockliner is designed to provide optimal comfort as part of the shoe construction, though it is not intended for regular removal.
How does the sizing run?
These trainers feature a regular fit. If you typically wear a UK 5.5, the standard size should accommodate your foot comfortably.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or dusty
Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift the fibers and remove accumulated dust or dirt.
Water spots on the material
Allow the shoes to dry completely, then lightly brush the affected area with a suede brush to restore the texture.
Squeaking sound while walking
Ensure the insole is properly seated and dry; moisture inside the shoe can sometimes cause temporary friction sounds.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are designed for a standard fit; if you are between sizes, consider trying both to find the ideal match for your preference. Because of the suede construction, avoid machine washing or soaking the shoes. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt after each wear. To protect the suede, it is recommended to apply a water-repellent suede spray prior to first use. If the trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the suede to stiffen or shrink.
