Im Replacing My Favorite Puma Carina Sneakers While Theyre on Sale

My go-to shoe for the last few summers has been my Puma Carina Sneakers, but they have gotten pretty beaten up over the last few years, and while my sneakerhead boyfriend has tried to revive them with a deep clean, I am pretty sure they’re ready for retirement. Given that Rihanna and Selena Gomez have been spotted wearing the brand on several occasions, I’ve put off parting with the well-loved and -worn sneaker — not to mention, they’re super comfortable and great for everyday wear.

Selena and Rihanna both styled theirs with all-white lounge sets (though Rihanna accessorized with a drink in hand, as Rihanna does). The Umbrella singer also wore another pair of Pumas ahead of the 2023 Academy Awards with a metallic bucket hat and football jersey. So, to keep dressing like the duo, I'm going to have to replace my worn-out sneakers — and what better time to swap for a fresh pair than while they're still 26 percent off post-Prime Day.

The Carina is Amazon’s number one best-selling fashion sneaker, available in 16 color variations and sizes 5.5 through 11. The shoe has a white leather shell and non-slip rubber platform with great traction, while on the inside, it features a cushiony sole that forms to your feet over time for maximum comfort.

I have worn these sneakers through four years of college, six months of navigating cobblestone streets in Europe, countless extensive cardio workouts, and now, daily treks across NYC. Besides a bit of discoloration and lots of wear on the leather, the shoes have held up well. The outer rubber sole is still intact and has great traction, and the insole, now fully broken-in, offers the perfect amount of support and bounce while walking. They’re also super versatile when it comes to styling. Taking notes from Rihanna and Selena, I have dressed them down with jeans and a T-shirt, and for dressier outings, with dresses and skirts. 

Rihanna, Selena, and I aren't the only ones getting lots of use out of our Pumas; the Carina sneakers currently have over 16,900 five-star ratings with raving reviews to match. One shopper who spends their day "standing for 9 to12 hours straight" as a hostess said the "easy to clean" shoes are "so comfortable"  given that the "toe box isn't constricting." Another shopper recommended these sneakers for the summer, considering they can "wear [them] with everything."
