description Puma Roma Overview
help Puma Roma FAQ
Was the PUMA Roma released in 1990 or 1968?
PUMA's current product history dates the Roma to 1968 and says it was created to celebrate Italy's Euro Cup win. The 1990 date in the catalog description does not match PUMA's own archive story. [PUMA Roma product page](https://us.puma.com/us/en/pd/tenis-roma-suede/398635)
Was the original PUMA Roma a tennis shoe?
No. PUMA describes the original Roma as a sport-to-street shoe tied to the Italian football team's 1968 victory, not as a tennis model. Current versions are lifestyle trainers rather than modern match footwear.
What features make the PUMA Roma comfortable?
The current Roma 24 listing specifies a thick padded tongue, orthopaedic arch supports, and an EVA or ProFoam midsole. It uses a leather and synthetic upper with a rubber outsole, although the material mix varies by version.
What is the difference between Roma 24 and Roma 68 Revival?
PUMA lists Roma 24 with a leather and synthetic upper, while the Roma 68 Revival listing specifies a synthetic upper and leather Formstrip. Both draw from the 1968 archive, so the style code is the safest way to check exact materials. [PUMA Roma 68 Revival](https://us.puma.com/us/en/pd/roma-68-revival-mens-sneakers/398634)
