PUMA reimagines its iconic Palermo sneaker with the launch of the Palermo Moda. This new release serves as a contemporary tribute to the beloved ‘80s silhouette, known for its design and association with European subcultures.
The Palermo Moda distinguishes itself with a combination of soft suede and smooth leather, offering a premium feel that enhances the sneaker. The choice of materials is a nod to the original Palermo, while the slightly elevated gum sole updates it. The design retains the sleek, low-profile look that made the original a favorite.
Colorways play a crucial role in the Palermo Moda’s appeal, with PUMA offering a palette that includes both neutral tones and vibrant hues. This range allows for versatility in styling, whether one prefers a classic, understated look or a bolder statement.

The Palermo’s history is integral to its charm. Originally part of a series of sneakers that paid homage to Europe’s most famous cities, the Palermo became more than that. Adopted by football casuals and embraced within terrace subculture, the Palermo was worn as a badge of identity, signifying a connection to the sport and the community that surrounded it.
The Palermo Moda honors this legacy while introducing design elements that follow today’s trends. It arrives on September 1st, available at PUMA.com, PUMA flagship stores, and selected retailers.
