Dua Lipa and EmRata Are Already Wearing 2025’s Top Sneaker Trend

At any given moment, the sneaker world is overflowing with trending styles, but some pairs always outweigh the rest. And right now, the specific style that’s making the biggest splash, especially among celebrities like Emily Ratajkowski and Dua Lipa, is the PUMA Speedcat, a racing-style sneaker that was first introduced in 1999. (The German sportswear brand has been the official shoemaker of Formula 1 teams like Scuderia Ferrari and Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 team since 2004, so the motorsport aesthetic of the Speedcats makes sense.)

Most recently, Lipa wore the black version of the low-profile, thin-soled sneakers with tube socks and a matching bra-and-shorts set while traveling for her birthday. A month prior, she wore a red pair of the same style to Sunny Hill Festival, a music festival in Kosovo that the “Levitating” singer puts on with her father, alongside baggy jeans and a halter top.

In the spring, it was another street-style maven frequenting the sneaker style, specifically in red. Ratajkowski’s been wearing her pair of Speedcats for months, pairing them with long gym shorts just as effortlessly as she does with white summer frocks. Without a doubt, they’re her most-worn sneakers of the last two seasons.
