Rafael Americo is a bit of everything: actor, designer, musician and besides all that he works at the marketing of Puma. But it was only after living in London that he discovered his real interest — Fashion. Rafa chose this Puma Suede for his interview because not only it’s his favorite model, but it was also the shoe that accompanied him through different countries during his Eurotrip.
Do you remember when your interest in fashion began?
Do you have any plans to make a carrier out of it?
You’ve been working at Puma Brasil for almost 4 years. What was your path to get there?
What’s your relationship with sneakers in general?
We did the photo shoot in your new apartment, what does this place mean to you?
Why did you choose this Pumas Suedes for today’s photoshoot?
rafaelThe Puma Suedes have had a strong presence in my life these last few years, I always wore them and they’re my favorite sneakers from Puma – you can wear them with anything and they’re really comfortable. But this one in specific I chose because I did a 20 day Eurotrip and they were my companions in the rain, the sun, the beach, in everything. And this pair specifically has a lot of stories, even though I’ve only had them for 2 months, and they’re already beat up, but they look just as good and they have all these stories to tell. They’ve gone through everything with me.
Do you have any stories from the trip with them?
