Our Puma Future page brings together the agility range from the German brand, identifiable by its compression band that hugs the foot, in Ultimate, Pro, Match and Play levels, with FG/AG or mixed soles for winter and in children's sizes. It is suitable for forwards, midfielders and defenders who frequently change their footing. Our tips help you choose your level and size.
A upper that adapts to the foot.
The Future has succeeded the evoPOWER in the Puma collection with a central idea: to adapt the shoe to the foot instead of the other way around. The first versions featured a free lacing system, NETFIT, which allowed for tightness exactly where it was needed. The current models rely on an elastic compression band, called FUZIONFIT, that wraps around the midfoot and locks it down without pressure points. The result: a shoe that fits both narrow and wide feet. In rugby, this fit reassures players as they make quick turns and changes of support, all while maintaining a good feel for kicking the ball.

The four levels share the same silhouette, but not the same construction. The Future Ultimate features the thinnest upper, the most advanced compression band, and the lightest sole: it's the match model. The Pro takes the essence of this model with slightly thicker materials. The Future Match offers a robust compromise for a player who trains several times a week, while the Play, being simpler, is suitable for beginners and those on a budget. For kids, the LL versions, which are laceless, slip on like a sock thanks to their elastic upper, saving time before practice.
The sole is chosen based on the surface you play on most. The FG/AG version, the most common, has molded studs suitable for both dry natural grass and synthetic turf. For the heavy pitches of winter, Puma offers MxSG versions, which combine a few metal screw-in studs with molded ones: grip increases without sacrificing lightness. In terms of fit, the elastic band accommodates wide feet: you stick with your usual size, tried on at the end of the day with match socks. After the session, a brush, a wipe with a damp sponge, and air drying are enough to maintain the synthetic upper.
Great bargains can be found in the good deals, promotions, clearance, sales, and Black Friday. The new arrivals showcase the latest models. The highlights of the year follow a steady pattern: the Black Friday at the end of autumn, the end-of-year festivities, the winter sales, the French Days in spring, followed by summer sales and back-to-school promotions.
Yes, that’s one of its strengths: its elastic compression band adapts to the shape of the foot without squeezing. Those with wider feet often find more comfort than in a very narrow speed shoe.
MxSG refers to a mixed sole for soft ground: a few metal screw-in studs accompany the molded studs. It provides the necessary grip on a wet pitch while remaining lightweight.
LL indicates a laceless version: the elastic upper slips on like a sock and holds the foot on its own. Younger kids can get dressed without help, and no laces come undone during a match.
Yes, for a half, centre or fullback, on dry or synthetic pitches, and in MxSG version for winter. For forwards, who are exposed to the pressure in scrums, a rugby shoe with a reinforced upper is preferred.
Yes, its thin upper, well-secured by the compression band, provides a consistent striking surface and good feel. To take penalties on a winter pitch, the MxSG version secures the support foot.
