As every fashion lover knows, there is always one shoe that becomes the ultimate must-have for each season, capturing the hearts of the masses. Last year, it was the iconic Adidas Samba, seen on celebrities like Rihanna, Hailey Bieber, Jennifer Lawrence, and Harry Styles. But as they say, change is the only constant, and the fashion community has now declared the Samba as "dead" after former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak was spotted wearing them. It seems like he ruined it for everyone. This news sent many fashion followers on a hunt for the next "it girl" trainer.

But fear not, we have our eyes on the latest trend that's taking over the fashion world - the Puma Speedcat. This sleek, suede, round-toed silhouette sits close to the foot and is inspired by the fireproof footwear worn by Formula One drivers in the 1980s. Originally introduced in 1999 as part of the brand's Sportstyle collection, this low-profile design was tailored for motorsport use.

Now, after 26 years since its initial launch, the Puma Speedcat has been given a makeover in its original black and red colors, with a new Puma cat logo on the front. And while it may have originated from the world of motorsport, it has quickly found its way onto the streets of global fashion capitals. Celebrities like Em Rata and Dua Lipa have been spotted wearing them, with Em Rata even sporting them as early as December 2023, according to British Vogue.

Em Rata has effortlessly paired her cherry-red Speedcats with a slip dress, sweats and a hoodie, and even a black set with cargo trousers and a bomber jacket. Meanwhile, Dua Lipa has also flaunted both pairs of Speedcats on her Instagram account. As a regular wearer of Puma shoes, she has been a brand ambassador for the label since 2020.

But it's not just celebrities who have fallen in love with these trainers. The popular TikTok trend forecaster, 'FloTrends', has also predicted that the Puma Speedcat will be the go-to trainer for Autumn/Winter 2024. In a video posted on her account, she explains how the Speedcats are easy to style, minimal yet classic, and can make a statement with their signature stripe.

Fashion expert Oriona Robb agrees that the Puma Speedcat has the potential to become the next "it" trainer. She explains how its sleek design, comfort, and versatility have made it a favorite among the younger demographic. And she's not the only one who loves it - the trainer is already sold out in various countries and unavailable to buy on Puma's US website. But if you're in the UK, you can still get your hands on the revamped black or red pairs for £90 on Puma's website.

So, how can you style these bold and trendy trainers? Oriona suggests pairing the red ones with jeans and a grey cashmere jumper for a casual yet stylish look, adding a cap and a trench coat for an extra touch. And if you prefer a more sleek and low-profile look, the black Speedcats are perfect for you.
