With the holiday season right around the corner, there’s no better time to treat yourself or someone you love to the ultimate style upgrade. PUMA’s three stunning sneakers bring together trendsetting styles and all-day comfort to make shoes that turn heads at every holiday event.
From football-inspired style, to vintage running aesthetics, and iconic silhouettes, PUMA has shoes that fit any holiday look. Here are three PUMA sneakers that are perfect to give as gifts for loved ones or treats for yourself this season.
1. The Game-Changing Classic: PUMA Palermo
These sneakers are the best way to kick off any holiday celebration. Originally debuted in the 1980s, PUMA brought back the classic terrace shoe in 2023. The shoes were brought to the spotlight by avid football connoisseurs of the 80s, showing off its aesthetic which perfectly balances between sports and lifestyle. The latest edition of the PUMA Palermo features the unmistakable sleek and colorful silhouette of the terrace culture icon. It still has the T-toe construction and the rubber gum sole.
The newest version of the shoes feature a textile upper, mesh lining, suede tongue lining, and the suede PUMA Formstrip. Celebrities like British pop star Dua Lipa and model Emily Ratajkowski were spotted rocking the PUMA Palermo this year. In the Philippines, influencers and content creators like Rhea Bue were also seen wearing the classic PUMA sneakers.
Why It’s Perfect for the Holidays: Whether you’re catching a game or heading to a holiday party, the PUMA Palermo, a terrace classic, is the ultimate conversation starter.
2. Nostalgia Meets Now: PUMA Easy Rider
If vintage runners are more your speed, PUMA Easy Rider is the shoe for you. This year, PUMA reintroduced the retro runner shoes which originally launched in the 1970s. With its sleek silhouette, the running shoe quickly established itself as a must-have item for fashionistas when it was released. PUMA Easy Rider was the result of jogging rising as the “it” hobby of the time, consequently increasing the demand for shoes with running technology.
In the 70s and 80s the PUMA Easy Rider caught the eyes of football fans. In 2024, the PUMA Easy Rider holds up in comfort and design. It features nylon and suede uppers that fits into the retro runner and terrace shoe revival. It maintains its classic, slim profile and vintage vibes. The PUMA Easy Rider bridges generations with its timeless silhouette and style.
Why It’s Perfect for the Holidays: With its retro vibe, the PUMA Easy Rider brings a nostalgic charm that’s ideal for chill family gatherings or laid-back holiday celebrations.
3. Race and Runway Ready: PUMA Speedcat
This year was a big year for sneaker comeback as PUMA also relaunched the iconic PUMA Speedcat. First released in the late 1990s, the PUMA Speedcat was brimming with effortless style with its minimalist aesthetic and low-profile silhouette. Originally re-released in the classic red and black colorways, the 2024 version of the PUMA Speedcat was a proven hit among sneakerheads and street style aficionados.
The new edition of the PUMA Speedcat retained its signature slim silhouette and suede upper. It was injected with subtle modern enhancements, such as an improved IMEVA rubber sole and an embossed PUMA logo on the toebox, to tie it into the current sneaker landscape. In September 2024, PUMA introduced two new colorways of the PUMA Speedcat: light blue and oat coffee. Filipino actress Liza Soberano was spotted wearing the PUMA Speedcat in the red, black, light blue, and oat coffee colorways during the Singapore Grand Prix. She was also seen wearing a pair of the red PUMA Speedcat, paired with a long-sleeved red PUMA football kit and a black PUMA maxi cargo skirt, at the Las Vegas Grand Prix. Other personalities seen donning the PUMA Speedcat include fashionista content creator Ida Anduyan and media personality LA Aguinaldo.
Why It’s Perfect for the Holidays: Whether you’re dashing through the airport for a holiday getaway or tearing up the dance floor at your year-end party, the PUMA Speedcat is designed to keep you stylish at full throttle.
