Puma Unveils Supercharge Boot Pack: SA Pricing Revealed

Puma has introduced the next model of the Future football range, with Brazilian and PSG star Neymar Jr. once again acting as the flagship athlete for the boots.

The new model doesn’t stray too far from the great foundation of last season’s Future, but adds an innovative ‘Fuzionfit360’ dual mesh upper and integrates Puma’s ‘Pwrtape’ technology (which appears on the Ultra Ultimate and older-gen boots) to enhance support for a closer fit.

“The placement of the Pwrtape is based on strain data collected from measuring strain forces on the upper of the boot during a variety of key football movements that include accelerating, running, cutting and kicking,” said PUMA spokesperson Florian Nemetz. “The Pwrtape has been integrated into a zig-zag pattern to provide targeted support in the high-strain areas. This provides our athletes with optimal support with an ultimate locked-in fit so you can move without constraints when performing key movements on the pitch.”

The Future will be worn by the likes of Neymar Jr., Julia Grosso, Dzsenifer Marozsán, James Maddison and South African stars Themba Zwane, Keagan Buchanan, Teboho Mokoena, Bongani Sam, Ethan Brooks, Sphelele Mkhulise, Zanele Nhlapo and Sibusiso Mabiliso.

As a step toward a better future, the upper of the Future features at least 30% recycled materials.

The top-tier Puma Future Supercharge edition is priced at R4,499 and available from 31 January at Puma.com, PUMA Retail Stores, Totalsports, Studio 88 and selected retailers.
