Emily Ratajkowski returned to her new favorite on Monday, strolling around New York City in black and white Puma Speedcat sneakers.
Although Ratajkowski wears high heels for her turns on the red carpet, she's become better known for her off-duty street style. In recent years, she has revealed herself to be a sneakerhead and a leader in the field. Many of the sneakers she wears are from Puma, including her two-tone Puma Palermo, which she wore to walk her dog a few weeks ago. This shoe features a thick gum sole and was first introduced as a soccer style in the 1980s.
In her latest sighting, the model and podcast host was spotted walking around New York City in a huddle.
About shoes
Ratajkowski is wearing black and white OG Puma Speedcat sneakers. These shoes feature an ultra-low profile silhouette with almost no sole. PUMA's trademark Swoosh is featured on the side, and the PUMA cat is featured on the toe.
Speedcat was originally designed for F1 drivers in 1998. At the time, they were second-hand items, so they were fireproof boots. A year later, it was released as a sleek sneaker for the masses with a thin rubber sole. Various color variations of the Speedcat are available now for $100.

This model has been spotted on Speedcat many times. As early as December 2023, she was seen mating. She wears variations of red in addition to black. She wore a red variation of the Puma Speedcat and Sparco during New York Fashion Week.
PUMA has supported its status as a trendy shoe with updates through collaborations. In January, the label released a version by JUUN.J in Seoul.
