The PUMA Ultra 5 Pro FG/AG boots are engineered for players who prioritize speed and agility. On the pitch, you'll immediately notice the benefit of the SPEEDSYSTEM soleplate and its FastTrax studs. This combination provides explosive acceleration, allowing you to burst past defenders and change direction with confidence. The unique three-stud setup at the heel is particularly effective for sudden braking, giving you an edge in surprising opponents.
The PWRTAPE support frame is crucial for maintaining stability during quick cuts and agile maneuvers, ensuring your foot remains securely locked in without sacrificing freedom of movement. When dribbling at pace, the GripControl Pro texturing on the upper truly shines, providing excellent ball contact and enhancing your ability to control the ball even in challenging situations. These boots are highly versatile, performing consistently on both well-maintained firm natural pitches and modern artificial grass surfaces due to their FG/AG outsole design. The low-cut slip-on construction and soft heel cushioning contribute to an overall comfortable experience, allowing you to focus on your game without distractions.
Setting up your PUMA Ultra 5 Pro FG/AG boots is straightforward due to their low-cut slip-on construction. Simply slide your foot in, ensuring a snug and secure fit. The design is intended for a regular to narrow foot, providing a close-to-the-ball feel. It's recommended to wear them for a few light training sessions before a full match to properly break them in and adapt to their feel.
These boots are designed as FG/AG, meaning they are compatible with two primary playing surfaces:
Firm Ground (FG): Natural grass pitches that are firm and relatively dry.
Artificial Ground (AG): Modern artificial turf pitches (often referred to as 3G or 4G). The rounded studs on the lateral side are specifically engineered to provide effective grip and reduce stud pressure on these surfaces.
They are not recommended for extremely wet, muddy natural grass pitches (which typically require SG/Soft Ground studs) or older, abrasive 2G artificial turf.
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your boots:
Cleaning: After each use, remove loose dirt and mud with a soft brush or cloth. Use a damp cloth with mild soap (if necessary) to wipe down the upper. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials and adhesives. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a boot bag can protect them during transport.
Inspection: Regularly check the studs and soleplate for wear or damage. Ensure laces are intact if applicable (these are slip-on, but ensure the fit is still good).
