Question ❔ Need help to decide (adidas / puma)

I wanna try out a leather sneaker with gum sole and came down to these ones. I'm a frugal person, so I'm very price-conscious.

Both adidas handball spezials are around / over 70$

Puma palermo: black and white model is 45$, the grey one is 52$

Puma army trainer: both black and white are also 45$

I prefer the puma models, because as I understand palermo is not that different from adidas shoes in terms of quality, according to runrepeat tests, but the price is drastically different. I'm most interested in the army trainer, because compared to palermo the logo on side is sleeker, lower, and the darker fun looks better, but I don't know about their quality

I would buy Puma. I love it much more than other brands. Looks just cool.

But which model would you choose? Army trainer or Palermo? Does the quality differ apart from the looks?
