We're seeing low-profile soles and sleek silhouettes pop up more and more in the sneaker world. Puma too has dived into their archives and breathed new life into their iconic motorsport sneaker. We're introducing a legendary design straight from the history books: the Puma Speedcat. The newest low-profile gem in our collection.

This motorsport classic was developed in 1998 for Formula 1 drivers and has since evolved into an absolute fashion icon. The low, flat profile isn't just for show — it was specially designed for optimal pedal feel, helping drivers like Michael Schumacher achieve peak performance on the track. Thanks to its unique, elegant look and distinctive Puma Cat branding, the Speedcat quickly became a fashion classic, both on and off the circuit.

Now it's time for a Speedcat comeback. Puma reintroduced the model and it immediately caught on. No surprise, given Gen Z's love for vintage styles like these. The relaunch features two classic colorways that pay homage to the model's rich motorsport heritage: red and black.

While the silhouette of this sneaker might look intimidating, it's actually quite versatile. Play with the contrast of fitted and baggy by wearing the Speedcats under an oversized fit. Or embrace the sporty look of this sneaker and style them with white sports socks and a loose-fitting football shirt. Thanks to its subtle and elegant silhouette, the black Speedcat can even be styled with more formal attire - perfect excuse to wear your sneakers to Christmas dinner.
