Puma soccer shoes

Puma cleats fall into three main families, each built for a style of play. See the full Puma soccer collection and our Puma soccer shoes.

Puma Ultra — speed

Built for fast players and wingers, the Ultra is all about lightness: a thin, tough ULTRAWEAVE upper, a close-to-foot fit for a near-barefoot feel, and a reactive outsole that favours acceleration and quick changes of direction. If your game lives in the runs in behind, this is your range.

Puma Future — control and agility

The Future targets playmakers and creative players. Its FUZIONFIT band and adaptive lacing wrap the foot for dynamic lockdown, while the upper textures ball contact. The result: agility, control and versatility all over the pitch.

Puma King — touch

The King is a modernized classic. Its next-generation K-Better synthetic leather delivers the soft touch and comfort that built the range's reputation, without the upkeep of natural leather. A safe pick for players who value ball feel and comfort over 90 minutes.

Then choose your surface: FG (natural grass), AG (turf), TT / turf (short or winter grass) and IN / IC (futsal, gym). All three families come in men's, women's and junior versions.

Puma running shoes

On the running side, Puma shook up the market with its Nitro foam. The range covers every use, from daily miles to racing:

  • Velocity Nitro: the ultimate versatile neutral trainer, for daily training and long runs alike.
  • Deviate Nitro: a step more dynamic, with a carbon-fibre PWRPLATE for faster runs; the Deviate Nitro Elite pushes responsiveness for racing.
  • Magnify Nitro: maximum cushioning, built for comfort and long distances.
  • ForeverRun Nitro: stability and support for runners who want more hold.
  • Fast-R Nitro Elite: Puma's super-shoe, built for road performance and the marathon.

What is Puma's Nitro foam?

Nitro foam is a cushioning foam injected with nitrogen. The nitrogen creates micro-bubbles in the material, making it both very light and responsive: it absorbs impact while returning energy with each stride. The higher-performing Nitro Elite version powers the racing models (Deviate Nitro Elite, Fast-R), often paired with a carbon plate to maximize energy return. It's this technology that explains why so many runners now search for “Puma Nitro” shoes.

Puma apparel and training

Puma dresses the athlete head to toe. Its dryCELL fabrics wick sweat to keep you dry under effort. The range covers soccer apparel (jerseys, shorts, tracksuits), training and running pieces, and a lifestyle line for everyday wear. Explore Puma apparel.

How do Puma shoes fit?

Puma often runs a little small and narrow. Take your usual size, or go up half a size if you have a wide foot or are between sizes. Try them on with the socks you'll use.

Do Puma soccer cleats run small?

Yes, most run a little small and snug, especially the Ultra. Many players go up half a size. The King, in synthetic leather, tends to soften and mould to the foot over time.

What's the difference between Puma Ultra, Future and King?

Ultra is built for speed (lightweight ULTRAWEAVE upper), Future for control and adaptive fit (FUZIONFIT), and King for comfort and the touch of K-Better synthetic leather. Choose by your style of play.

What is Puma's Nitro foam?

Nitro foam is a cushioning foam injected with nitrogen, both very light and responsive: it absorbs impact while returning energy. The higher-performing Nitro Elite version powers the racing models, often with a carbon plate.

Which Puma running shoe should I choose?

For versatile daily training, the Velocity Nitro; for faster runs with a carbon plate, the Deviate Nitro; for maximum cushioning on long distances, the Magnify Nitro; for support, the ForeverRun; for racing, the Fast-R or Deviate Nitro Elite.

How can I tell if Puma shoes are authentic?

Buy from an authorized retailer and check for a clean logo, a label with an article code, tidy stitching and the original box. At Soccer Sport Fitness, all Puma products are guaranteed authentic.

How do I wash Puma shoes?

Clean by hand with a damp cloth and mild soap. For suede, use a dedicated dry brush. Avoid the washer and dryer; air-dry away from heat.

How do Puma jerseys fit?

Replica jerseys fit fairly true; for a looser fit, size up. The Authentic version is more fitted (athletic cut).
