A motorsport racing flat, done in chocolate-brown satin with a flower garden printed over the top. That’s not the combination most people come running for, which is exactly why I keep an eye on it. The Puma Speedcat Silky in “Chocotart / Warm White” went quiet for a while, and now it’s back in stock across a handful of shops.
Satin, florals and a gum sole
What sets this Speedcat apart from the standard version is the fabric. No suede, no mesh, but a glossy satin upper in a deep chocolate tone. Over it runs a floral print, tulips and lilies in blue, lilac, orange and green, from the toe all the way to the heel. The cream Formstrip and toe break up the brown, the laces sit in that same warm white, and underneath it all is the brown gum sole that belongs on this low racing silhouette. Outspoken without being loud, more for someone who likes to liven up a rotation than someone playing it safe.
€84 at the floor, €120 at retail
Here’s where it gets interesting for a buyer. The recommended price on this pair is €120. On Solezilla.com I’m seeing four active listings from four different shops today, all in euros, running from €84 at the low end up to that full €120. Puma’s own listing sits in the middle at €96.95, with StockX around €112 between them. So the floor is roughly 30% under retail, from a regular shop rather than some one-off outlier, which is the kind of gap I actually trust. The Hypescore sits at 38, CHARGING, comfortably in the middle: nobody’s charging a premium, it’s not on every shelf, and that’s often exactly the moment to move.
UK and US shoppers, note there’s nothing in pounds or dollars here yet, only euro listings, so count shipping and import on top. And watch the sizes. With a thin spread like this a few sizes usually go first and the rest hangs around, so if you take a common size you’ve still got a choice right now. The Speedcat also runs narrow and long; if you’re between two, size up rather than down. A quick check before you order saves you a return.
Want to be sure €84 really is the lowest at the moment you look, since stock and prices move by the day? Compare the Speedcat Silky across every shop on Solezilla. More on the silhouette lives on the Puma Speedcat page, and the rest of the brand sits under Puma. The Chocotart page shows which shops still have it and in which sizes.
So: is this floral racer a Grail or a Bail? Let us know where it lands with you.
