The sneaker experts at Lyst also told me that searches for the Puma Palermo are currently up 93 percent quarter-over-quarter on the site, so don’t be surprised to see the style popping up right and left this fall. Though the shoe comes in plenty of bright colorways, a timeless neutral combo will never lead you astray.
I’ll also be keeping close tabs on the currently sold-out Puma Speedcat, another buzzy sneaker that social media has declared the “next Adidas Samba.” Like the Puma Palermo, these have been spotted on stars including Dua Lipa and Emily Ratajkowski.
Sizes: 5.5-11
Colors: 7 options
Material: Suede
Customer review: “I love the look of Sambas, but they were always out of stock. Glad they were because I like these so much better… They are super comfy, have no break-in period, and look chic.”
