After many seasons of Samba supremacy, the fashion set is crying out for a trainer palate cleanser, and I've just spotted a fresh contender worthy of rivalling the cult style. Spotted on Dua Lipa just this week, Puma's Palermo trainers are asserting themselves as 2024's new favourites.
Selecting a jet-black pair, the singer wore her Puma Palermos with white socks and a relaxed red cardigan in an Instagram pic. Slim in shape, these trending trainers neatly hug the foot and taper into a curved toe for a streamlined finish and a retro silhouette. Styling well with relaxed jeans but looking equally chic when worn with tailored trousers or flowing dresses, Puma Palermos are the in-the-know trainers that celebs are already gravitating towards and that I expect to see a whole lot more of now that sandals are dipping in popularity.
Gathering It-girl approvals at pace, I've also seen them on model Emily Ratajkowski. Wearing hers with a knee-length pleated skirt and a boxy leather jacket, Ratajkowski chose a monochrome pair to complete her elevated off-duty look. Whilst both Lipa and Ratajkowski have a penchant for the black iterations, Puma's Palermo trainers come in a whole host of shades. From light lilacs to chocolate browns, the collection taps into some of the biggest trainer colour trends circulating right now.
Already on the wish lists of fashion people everywhere, these fresh trainers are set to dominate city streets this autumn. To shop the trainers we're predicting will pick up where Sambas left off, read on to discover our edit of the chicest Puma Palermo trainers to buy now.
