PUMA and South Korean designer Juun.J continue their creative partnership with a striking reinterpretation of the iconic Speedcat sneaker. Following the success of their Plexus collaboration last year, this latest project melds motorsport heritage with Juun.J’s signature high-end, functional aesthetic.

The PUMA x Juun.J Speedcat arrives in both high and low-top versions, reimagined with a stealthy and structural design. Shadowy colorways define the collection, while the armor-like upper features reworked lines that emphasize the toebox. The PUMA Formstrip is given a dynamic twist, with rippling contours that add textural depth. Further details include debossed logos on the toe and upper, with the high-top edition incorporating Juun.J branding on the strap closure. Tire-inspired tread patterns on the outsole pay homage to the Speedcat’s roots in motorsports and F1 racing.
Juun.J’s design philosophy shines through in this collaboration, blending his distinctive minimalism with bold functionality. Known for his dark, utilitarian approach to fashion, the designer’s second partnership with PUMA elevates the Speedcat into a futuristic footwear statement.
In the campaign visuals, two protagonists are seen racing under a cosmic backdrop, embodying the sneaker’s cutting-edge narrative. The imagery reinforces the design’s connection to speed, innovation, and a forward-looking vision.
The PUMA x Juun.J Speedcat will be available starting December 14, 2024, through Juun.J’s channels and select PUMA retailers. This release is a must-see for fans of motorsport-inspired fashion and cutting-edge design.
