FAQs

What material is the Puma Palermo trainer made of?

The upper is primarily made of suede, with textile elements. The lining is 100% textile, and the sole is 100% rubber.

How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Always test cleaners in an inconspicuous area first and avoid getting the suede excessively wet.

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

No, the Puma Palermo trainers are designed for casual wear and offer a flat heel. They are best suited for walking and everyday activities, not high-impact sports.

What is the primary color of these trainers?

The primary color is a vibrant yellow, often described as 'Yellow Sizzle,' with 'Alpine Snow' (white) accents.

How do I ensure a proper fit?

These trainers feature a lace-up fastening system that allows you to adjust the tightness for a secure and comfortable fit. It's recommended to try them on to find your ideal fit.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede, textile, and sole construction. Hand cleaning and spot treatment are the preferred methods.

What is the main benefit of the gum sole?

The classic gum sole provides good traction and durability, contributing to the retro aesthetic of the shoe while offering reliable grip on most surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Suede losing its texture or color

Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush. For discoloration or stains, use a specialized suede cleaner, following the product's instructions and testing in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Gum sole becoming dirty or scuffed

Clean the gum sole with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, a melamine foam eraser (magic eraser) can be effective. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the rubber.

Laces become worn or dirty

Replace laces with a new pair of similar length and material. If laces are dirty but intact, they can often be hand-washed with mild soap and water and air-dried.

Overall shoe looking dull

Ensure all suede and textile parts are clean. A suede protector spray can help maintain color and repel minor stains after cleaning. Allow shoes to air dry completely between wears.
