During the Y2K trend, the “Racecore” racing outfit trend has gradually emerged. To create a “racing driver” outfit, you naturally need a pair of Puma Speedcat! Puma recently recalled the classics and re-released this high-speed shoe that once dominated the Grand Prix of Spa-Francorchamps.

Born in 1999, Speedcat was originally designed for the world’s fastest sport, Formula One racing drivers. It has since not only brought extraordinary influence in the field of sports culture but has also slowly taken over the fashion industry, becoming a popular item. Its daily updated versions are based on the fireproof racing shoes worn by Grand Prix drivers in the 80s and 90s, drawing inspiration from racing to present a sleek, dynamic design with smooth lines.
Speedcat returns to its low-top silhouette, crafted from premium suede leather in a black and red colorway paying homage to F1 racing teams. Also paying tribute to 2000s racing suits, the shoe features the Puma cat logo embroidered on the toe, with the Puma gold logo embellishing the tongue and Formstrip on the side, with more colorways to come!
In addition to the global brand ambassador Rosé’s demonstration, this pair of Puma Speedcat is also highly praised by many fashionable Korean stars.
