00 PROLOGUE プロローグ
A three-way collaboration brings together PUMA, atmos KL and Malaysian streetwear label AGAINST LAB. to reimagine the iconic Speedcat Plus through the lens of automotive customisation, blending motorsport heritage with contemporary street culture.
PROJECT: PLAID explores the connection between motorsport, modified cars and personal expression — and turns it into a sneaker.
01 THE SPEEDCAT スピードキャット
The Speedcat has long been rooted in racing culture. Its influence has since extended beyond the track and into street culture.
For PROJECT: PLAID, the shoe draws inspiration from the world of early 2000s tuner culture.
02 THE CAR クルマ
In the early 2000s, customised cars became an extension of their owners' personalities. Nothing stayed stock — every choice said something about the person behind the wheel.
A key inspiration hides inside the cabin — the racing seat
03 THE SEAT レーシングシート
A key inspiration comes from racing seats — an often-overlooked detail of automotive culture.
From the 1990s into the early 2000s, brands such as Recaro, Bride and Sparco became recognised within the tuner scene for their distinctive racing seats.
04 THE PLAID タータンチェック
The Speedcat Plus translates these automotive details into footwear — a navy suede upper paired with a woven plaid panel and textured Formstrip. The materials and detailing reference the look and feel of customised automotive interiors, while keeping the Speedcat's signature racing-inspired silhouette.
