FAQs
Are these trainers machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the integrity of the sole. Clean them manually with a damp cloth.
Can I use these for running?
The Palermo is a lifestyle trainer and does not provide the specialized support or cushioning required for running.
How should I clean the gum sole?
Use a soft-bristled brush and a mild soapy solution to scrub the textured tread, then wipe dry with a cloth.
What material is used for the upper?
The upper is constructed primarily from high-quality leather, which provides durability and a clean look.
Do the trainers run true to size?
The Puma Palermo generally fits true to standard adult sizing, but individual comfort may vary based on foot width.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Loosen the laces fully and re-tie them while the shoe is on your foot to distribute pressure more evenly.
Minor scuffs on the leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth to gently buff out surface marks.
Slippage at the heel
Ensure the lace-up fastening is secure and consider using an additional insole if your foot size is narrow.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Puma Palermo trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, leather materials may take a few wears to mold perfectly to your foot shape.
- Lacing: Adjust the laces to a moderate tension. Overtightening can stress the eyelets, while loose lacing may lead to heel slippage.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt from the surface. For the leather components, wipe gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes or machine washing them, as this can degrade the leather and adhesive.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading over time.
