As someone who’s been covering the sneaker industry for a while, I can say with confidence that the latest PUMA Speedcat collaboration with South Korean designer JUUN.J is a big moment in performance-meets-luxury footwear. The partnership brings together PUMA‘s motorsport heritage and JUUN.J’s avant-garde design approach.
The reimagined PUMA Speedcat is available in both high-top and low-cut versions, with structural changes that highlight the shoe’s racing heritage. The upper has some pretty precise geometric lines that give it a modern architectural look, especially around the toe box area. The PUMA Formstrip gets a new look with some cool surface textures that catch light from different angles.

There’s more to these sneakers than meets the eye. They’re practical too. The outsole pattern is inspired by racing tires, giving you excellent grip while honoring the Speedcat’s motorsport roots. Both versions have debossed branding, and the high-top model has an additional JUUN.J-branded strap system for a secure fit.
These releases are more than just standard athletic footwear—they’re premium materials elevated to the next level. The armor-like upper construction shows off JUUN.J’s attention to detail while keeping the essential performance aspects that made the original PUMA Speedcat a favorite among motorsport enthusiasts.
You can find these exclusive designs starting December 14, 2024, through JUUN.J’s retail channels and select PUMA retailers worldwide.
