PUMA CELEBRATES THE LAUNCH OF THE SPEEDCAT IN EGYPT

July 9, 2025

A high-impact launch event brings together Cairo’s creative scene to welcome the iconic silhouette, from CGI buzz

The wait is over. After sparking curiosity with a mysterious CGI teaser that set social media abuzz, PUMA has officially unveiled its legendary SPEEDCAT sneaker in Egypt, and did so with unmistakable flair. Originally designed for Formula 1 drivers, the sleek, low-profile silhouette has been reborn for the streets, with its Egyptian debut marking a new chapter for the brand’s presence in the region.

The teaser, which featured a Bastet-like feline roaming Cairo before transforming into the PUMA icon, kicked off a story built on movement, mythology, and modern identity. The buzz led seamlessly into a one-night-only reveal event at Townhall by Kamelizer, District 5, where local tastemakers, artists, athletes, and media gathered to experience the Speedcat up close.

Guests stepped into a world inspired by the spirit of the SPEEDCAT: minimalist yet bold, grounded in performance yet made for the street. The evening’s centerpiece was the reveal of the sneaker itself — sleek, refined, and ready to hit Cairo’s pavement.

Backed by Intertex, PUMA’s main distribution partner in Egypt, the launch helped bring the SPEEDCAT to market while shaping the brand’s local presence, setting the stage for a bold reveal.

From the cinematic CGI teaser to the high-impact launch night, the SPEEDCAT’s arrival has been a cultural moment in motion. It’s not just about sneakers, it’s about connecting legacy to local relevance.
