About this deal

Striking was one of my favourite things to do in the Puma Future Z 1.3. The upper takes the stinging sensation out of your shot but provides you with that oomph you get from a classic power boot when striking the ball through the sweet spot. The effectiveness of the compression band also means that my planting foot was well secure when attempting to strike into the top corners. The first time I put the boots on, I thought the compression band was tight around my midfoot – if it was a little tighter, the band would have caused cramping in my feet. Within a couple of minutes of light jogging and warm ups, my concerns and the tightness melted away. The compression band is comfy AF. The Puma Future Z is all about mobility It’s been 4 years and Puma has dished out tons of updates to their Puma Future line. It was all about the perfect fit, no matter the foot shape. We at BOOTHYPE have come to love the series, and my personal favourite has been the Puma Future 5.1.

When it comes to touch, you do get a much closer feel of the ball as compared to any Puma Futures of the last 3 years. I felt quite connected to the ball when I make my passes, shoot or even when receiving it at pace. However, I can’t shake off the feeling that the touch feels pretty… average and dull? It’s not bad but it doesn’t feel unique or special like some of the previous Puma boots I’ve worn. It hasn’t taken the big cat long to improve on their Future Z again and this time, I think it is almost perfect. Puma Future Z 1.3: Going bigger on compression Trapping a ball feels close to feet but I felt that the knit provided just a bit of cushion for me to feet like I had the feathered touch of Olivier Giroud. I also felt confident with my passing and crosses as I could wrap my foot around the ball easily with that adaptive upper. Putting on the boot isn’t a chore despite how small the mouth looks. All you need to do is to loosen the top laces and in goes your feet. The Puma Future Z fits perfectly width and length wise when I went half a size down. Those with super wide feet should go true to size but for everyone else, go half down. The boots feel light on feet at 220g in a US 9 and you’d be hard-pressed to hear anyone having issues with its weight or how they fit especially when you take your first steps in them. The forefoot and the base of the upper are protected by a thin silicone layer to protect the knitted upper from wear and tear. A new feature that comes with the layer are soft embossed spikes on the outer foot – presumably for grip during dribbles and for those outer foot passes. For all these new materials and knit, the boot is pretty light at 225g in a US 9.

SẢN PHẨM LIÊN QUAN

The formula of the Puma Future Z 1.3 has remained the same as its predecessor – a boot that fits most foot shapes through an adaptable midfoot. The adaptability comes from the compression material covering the midfoot and Puma has invested more on that front. The compression band, officially named FUZIONFIT+, covers the entire midfoot up to the lace area and the mouth of the boot. About two thirds of the boot is covered in FUZIONFIT+.

The upper was thin but the touch felt quite dull and average. The Puma Future Z 1.3 changes that entirely. The entire upper is made from a knitted material and it’s evident when you feel the dampened sensation all round. Like past Futures (pun unintended), the boot is fairly wide so expect to go half a size down in them. The moment you put on the Puma Future Z 1.3, you’ll immediately notice the compression band doing its work on you. The compression bands held my feet firm and pivoting around in the Z soleplate is effortless, even on artificial ground (AG). Puma’s firm ground (FG) boots tend to be quite AG friendly and the Puma Future Z is no exception, earning our seal of approval for AG pitches. For those looking to be a ball hog like Neymar, the grippy textures across the boot do help you a little in keeping the ball close to your foot. Perhaps it’s not grippy enough to help you add spin to your passes but it provides just enough traction to give you confidence when controlling at a moderate dribbling pace.However, I do wish that it didn’t need to readapt to my foot every time I put it on, and that it took to the shape after one or two games, instead of five. But still, the fit and compression are second to none among the current football boot selections out there. Really impressive work by Puma there. The Puma Future Z 1.3 has a more elegant touch
