FAQs
How do I clean the leopard print details?
The leopard print details, being part of the upper material, should be cleaned with the same gentle care as the rest of the leather. Use a soft, damp cloth, avoiding harsh scrubbing.
Are these trainers suitable for running or intense sports?
While comfortable and providing good grip, the Puma Palermo Leo trainers are designed as lifestyle and casual footwear. For running or intense sports, specialized athletic shoes with enhanced support and cushioning are recommended.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper of the Puma Palermo Leo trainers is primarily made from high-quality leather, combined with suede overlays for added texture and style.
Do these trainers come with a warranty?
Info needed: Please refer to the retailer's or manufacturer's warranty policy for specific details regarding coverage and duration.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather offers some natural resistance, these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided. Applying a water-resistant leather protector spray can offer additional protection against light moisture.
What does 'terrace classic' mean in the description?
The term 'terrace classic' refers to a style of trainer popular in European football (soccer) casual culture, especially during the 1980s. It signifies a retro, iconic design rooted in sports heritage but adapted for everyday fashion.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dull or scuffed
Clean the area with a damp cloth, then apply a small amount of leather conditioner or polish designed for white leather to restore its luster. Buff gently with a soft cloth.
Trainers feel stiff and uncomfortable initially
Leather shoes often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for short durations (1-2 hours) for the first few days to allow the leather to soften and mold to your feet naturally.
Foot odor develops after prolonged wear
Remove insoles and air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the trainers overnight to absorb odors. Ensure trainers are completely dry before wearing again.
Sole grip seems reduced over time
Inspect the outsole for excessive wear or embedded debris. Clean the sole thoroughly with a stiff brush and water. If the tread is significantly worn, performance may naturally decrease.

Care Instructions
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your leather Puma Palermo Leo trainers, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner applied sparingly according to product instructions.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can damage the leather.
- Protection: Consider applying a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Never machine wash leather trainers, as this can severely damage the material and structure.
