These Are the It Sneakers Celebrities Love to Wear With Baggy Pants and Jeans
Despite all the new pant trends that have emerged in 2025, celebrities continue to be most loyal to baggy pants and jeans. And during their off-duty time, they often pair their pants with sneakers. One of the specific It sneakers countless celebs have paired with baggy bottoms this year is the Puma Speedcat. And the most recent celebrity to sport them is Sophie Turner, who was just spotted wearing the retro suede sneakers with wide-leg sweatpants and a gray hoodie in NYC.
Given how versatile and wallet-friendly Puma Speedcats are, it's no surprise to me that they've reached It-item status. Celebrities like Rihanna, Dua Lipa, and Emily Ratajkowski often step out in them, as well as Julia Garner and Vittoria Ceretti, who've been spotted wearing them with baggy pants and jeans (as you'll see below). I'd even go as far as to call them the It sneakers of 2025, and the fact that Puma and Balenciaga recently collaborated on a Speedcat collection solidifies this. It's safe to say the style isn't going anywhere anytime soon.
If you're in the market for a new pair of retro It sneakers, keep scrolling for some Puma Speedcat outfit inspiration via Turner and a few other celebs, and shop the sneakers in an array of colorways that work for your style.
