Balenciaga and Puma launched their collaboration on Monday. The collection was originally unveiled as part of the brand’s winter 2025 collection and aims to blend sportswear and fashion, featuring new footwear with fresh takes on the sportswear company’s most popular shoe styles.

The Balenciaga and Puma campaign was photographed by Ari Versluis, who recently captured the “Exactitudes” spring 2026 lookbook, Demna’s final ready-to-wear collection for the fashion house. The campaign features models Diede, Tianee, Brooks, Yav and Joe wearing looks from the collaboration, styled with pieces from the winter 2025 collection.
The collaboration reimagines some of Puma’s most popular shoe silhouettes. The collection features a revamped version of the Speedcat. The sneakers were released in 1999 and were originally created as a racing shoe for Formula 1 drivers with a distinctive flat sole designed for responsive pedal feedback.
The Balenciaga | Puma Destroyed Speedcat sneaker in black.
The Destroyed Speedcat from the collection strips away the upper’s structural elements to create a pliable, sock-like feel, and is finished with a cut-off Formstrip. The sneakers retail for $685 and are available navy blue, red, black and white, all black and all white.
The Balenciaga and Puma Ballerina.
A new slip-on variant reconceptualized the iconic style as a laceless sneaker, crafted in supple leather. There is also the new and trendy Balenciaga and Puma Ballerina, which merges the Speedcat with the silhouette of a ballet flat, creating a hybrid slip-on shoe in satin. The shoes retail for $545 and are available in black and white, all black, light pink and baby blue.
Balenciaga x Puma ready-to-wear collection includes sweatsuits, tracksuits, a shearling “tracksuit” jacket, a trompe-l’œil suede bathrobe, hoodies, T-shirts, and shorts. The Balenciaga and Puma collaboration is now available in select Balenciaga stores worldwide and on balenciaga.com.
