PUMA unveils a new variation of its iconic Palermo sneaker model in the form of the Palermo Denim. The latest is made in collaboration with Japanese retailer brand atmos. The two bring forth an unconventional theme to the classic training footwear.
The upper is made with a T-toe construction with a retro theme and it is made with denim sewn down along with a contrasting tonal thread in orange -- this is done as it is normally found on jeans. Notably, the lacing system is also spotlighted as it is made from a soft and dainty lace fabrication. Notably, for those who prefer traditional laces, it does come with a spare set to be changed around.
