Product Information
Full details
The Puma Palermo Trainers are ideal for adults seeking a blend of vintage athletic style and modern streetwear appeal. Their key benefit lies in their iconic design, revived from 1980s football culture, offering a classic look with a comfortable fit. A potential caveat is that while the upper is leather, the sole is a classic gum sole, which might offer less grip on highly polished or wet surfaces compared to modern athletic shoes.

FAQs
Are Puma Palermo Trainers suitable for sports?
The Puma Palermo Trainers are designed primarily as lifestyle and streetwear shoes. While they offer comfort for walking, they are not engineered for high-impact sports or athletic performance.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper of these Puma Palermo Trainers is made of leather, supporting responsible manufacturing via the Leather Working Group.
How do I clean the gum sole?
The gum sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a specialized sole cleaner or a mild soap and water solution can be used. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
What is the 'terrace' style?
The 'terrace' style refers to a fashion trend that emerged among football fans in the 1970s and 1980s, favoring casual, comfortable, and stylish footwear often seen at football stadiums. The Puma Palermo is an icon of this era.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather upper can be treated for some water resistance, the gum sole offers limited traction on wet surfaces. It is advisable to wear them in dry conditions for optimal performance and safety.
What sizes are available?
These trainers are available in various adult sizes. Please refer to the product listing for specific size availability, including UK and other international sizing.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the Puma Palermo series is available in a range of colorways, often including variations with different accent colors and materials. Please check the product selection for current offerings.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them with thicker socks for a short period or use a shoe stretcher. Leather will naturally mold to your foot over time.
Gum sole discoloration
Minor discoloration can sometimes be removed with a specialized sole cleaner or a mild soap and water solution. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Leather scuffs or scratches
For minor scuffs, try buffing with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, a leather repair kit or colored shoe polish matching the shoe's color might be necessary.
Squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur due to friction. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or on the tongue area.
