The Palermo was originally part of a special series of sneakers created by Puma that paid homage to some of Europe’s most famous capitals, including London, Oslo, and many more. Part of Puma’s storied history, to this day; the Palermo’s unmistakable DNA evokes a deep sense of football nostalgia.
As a tribute to the shoe’s Sicilian namesake, the upcoming August drop includes two additional colourways, featuring vibrant schemes inspired by Palermo’s iconic fruit vendors, known locally as fruttivendolo.
