FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

The Puma Palermo Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and streetwear. While they offer comfort for everyday activities, they are not intended for intense athletic performance.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

For suede, use a dedicated suede brush to remove dirt and restore the texture. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. It's best to avoid getting the suede wet.

What does 'responsible manufacturing via the Leather Working Group' mean?

It signifies that the leather used in these trainers comes from tanneries that adhere to environmental best practices and are audited by the Leather Working Group, promoting sustainability in leather production.

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 material and affect its appearance. The rubber sole offers some protection, but the upper is susceptible to water damage.

What are the main materials used in the Puma Palermo Trainers?

The trainers feature a suede base, leather PUMA Formstrip and FOT, a suede tongue, mesh support, and a synthetic leather lining. The outsole is made of rubber.

Do these trainers come in other colors and sizes?

Yes, the Puma Palermo series is available in various colorways and sizes. Please check the product listings for available options.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks matted or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully.

Leather accents show scuffs

For minor scuffs on leather, try buffing gently with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper marks, a leather conditioner or shoe cream in a matching color might help.

Gum sole appears discolored

Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. For yellowing, a mixture of baking soda and water applied with a soft brush can sometimes help, but test in an inconspicuous area first.

Tongue or lining feels uncomfortable

Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly to allow for a comfortable fit. The synthetic lining is designed for comfort, but break-in time may be needed for new shoes.
