FAQs

What makes the Puma Palermo trainers unique?

The Puma Palermo trainers are unique due to their retro design inspired by 1980s football culture, featuring suede overlays and a classic gum sole, offering a blend of heritage style and casual comfort.

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

These trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and fashion. While they offer good grip from the gum sole, they are not intended for high-impact sports or rigorous athletic activities.

How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

For cleaning suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or a dedicated suede cleaner can be used cautiously. Avoid getting the suede wet.

What kind of outfits do these trainers pair well with?

They pair well with a wide range of casual outfits, including jeans, shorts, chinos, casual dresses, and skirts, offering a versatile addition to your wardrobe.

Do these trainers run true to size?

Generally, Puma trainers are designed to fit true to size. However, it's always recommended to check the specific sizing chart and customer reviews for the most accurate fit.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede trainers in wet weather as moisture can damage the suede and lead to staining or discoloration.

What does the 'gum sole' refer to?

A gum sole is made from rubber and typically has a light brown or translucent colour. It provides good traction and durability, and is a classic feature of many retro athletic shoes.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, try a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid water saturation.

Laces are worn or dirty.

Replace laces with new ones of a similar length and colour. Clean existing laces separately with mild soap and water.

Sole is losing grip.

Ensure the gum sole is clean, as dirt can reduce traction. For significant wear, consider professional refurbishment if available, though it may not be cost-effective.

Material feels stiff after purchase.

This is normal for new suede. Wear the shoes regularly for a short period to break them in. Gentle flexing can also help.
