Puma

German sportswear brand Puma offers footwear that ranges from retro lifestyle sneakers such as the Suede, Palermo and Speedcat to performance shoes for running, football, golf and motorsport-inspired styles. Its running line uses NITRO foam in models such as the Velocity Nitro and Deviate Nitro, while football players can choose from boot families including Future and Ultra. Puma also releases frequent collaborations with designers and celebrities that sit at the fashion end of its range. The brand is sold through its own stores and website as well as sports and fashion retailers internationally. Shoppers wanting recognisable casual sneakers or capable running shoes at prices often below some rivals' flagship models may find it worth comparing. Before buying, check whether a model is designed for sport or style, and review sizing guidance, since fit differs between retro lifestyle shapes and performance lasts.
