7 Shoes Like Rihanna's Fenty x Puma Creepers

by Sam Escobar

In case you haven't heard, everyone is completely obsessed with the Rihanna Fenty x Puma velvet creepers. Not only are they designed by one of the world's most celebrated and beloved artists, they're also just a flat-out great looking shoe. But with huge popularity comes a big downside: the creepers are probably going to sell out A.S.A.P. (Insert the world's saddest emoji face.) So, what should you buy if Rihanna Fenty x Puma velvet creepers sell out?

It's only natural that fans of the shoes have been taking to Twitter to talk about her highly coveted line — and how quickly they're flying off the e-shelves. The good news is that creepers have been everywhere over the last year or two, so lots of designers and retailers have similar pairs that will fit into your wardrobe just as well (okay, almost as well) as Rihanna's gorgeous shoes, which are retailing on Puma.com and Urban Outfitters.

I've rounded up a few options for folks who may have missed their chance at snagging a pair Pumas. A couple of these picks come in similarly festive velvet to Rihanna's most recent design, while other creepers are made from cool matte suede, similar to the originals. Now, here's what you can buy if you can't get your hands on this cult favorite.

1. This Dramatic Deep Red Velvet Design

Superga Velvet Sneakers (Sizes 5 - 10), $118, Anthropologie

This luxurious pair of velvet sneakers is pretty close to the burgundy Puma design, making them a perfect pair of shoes to add that extra boost of flair to your outfit. They also come in black for folks who prefer a slightly subtler look.

2. A Pretty Pink Pair Of Velvet Lace-Up Sneakers

They feature a gorgeous silk lace-up design and a 1.5-inch platform.
