The Speedcat is getting a new look. This season, PUMA introduces the Speedcat Mule, a backless take on one of its most recognizable silhouettes, with K-pop star and global fashion muse Rosé at the forefront of the campaign.
The update is subtle but effective. The low-profile shape that made the Speedcat a favorite remains, while the open-back design gives it a more relaxed feel. It’s the kind of shoe that fits naturally into everyday wardrobes: easy to slip on, easy to style, and versatile enough to wear beyond the weekend.
Crafted with a smooth leather upper, the Speedcat Mule is finished with soft ruched detailing and elastic forefoot straps for a secure fit. The signature PUMA Cat logo at the toe keeps the design grounded in the DNA of the original, proving that a fresh silhouette doesn’t have to abandon its roots.
Rosé brings her signature understated style to the campaign, wearing the Speedcat Mule in a nostalgic, vintage-inspired setting. Rather than overpowering the shoe, her styling highlights its simplicity, showing how easily it works with clean, effortless looks.
The release arrives in four versatile colorways: Black, Burgundy, Coffee Brown, and Cream. Each one leans into the shoe’s minimalist design, making it easy to pair with everything from relaxed denim to tailored separates.
The Speedcat Mule also continues PUMA’s ongoing revival of the Speedcat franchise. Following the return of the original silhouette and newer interpretations like the Ballet and Wedge, the Mule offers another fresh perspective on a design that continues to resonate with a new generation of wearers.
The PUMA Speedcat Mule is now available in the Philippines for PHP 5,200 through PUMA.com, PUMA flagship stores, and select PUMA retailers.
