FAQs
What does 'FG' mean on these football boots?
'FG' stands for Firm Ground. These boots are designed for use on natural grass pitches that are slightly damp or dry, or on well-maintained artificial grass pitches.
How do I clean my Puma Future 8 boots?
Brush off dirt with a soft brush and wipe with a damp cloth. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
Can I use these boots on an artificial grass pitch?
Yes, the FG (Firm Ground) soleplate is suitable for well-maintained, short artificial grass pitches. They are not ideal for older, longer, or softer artificial turf.
What is the benefit of the FUZIONFIT 3 upper?
The FUZIONFIT 3 upper provides a highly adaptive and personalized fit. It combines a stretchy knit base with Lycra, offering support that dynamically adjusts to your foot's movement.
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
The FUZIONFIT 3 upper is designed to be adaptive, which can accommodate a range of foot shapes. However, for significantly wide feet, trying them on in person is recommended.
How does the PWRTAPE technology help?
PWRTAPE technology offers targeted support across the midfoot, enhancing lockdown and stability during quick movements, helping to keep your foot secure within the boot.
What is the warranty period for these boots?
Warranty information typically varies by retailer and region. Please check with the point of purchase for specific warranty details and duration.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Allow for a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure laces are tied correctly, not too tight or too loose.
Poor traction on the pitch.
Confirm you are using the boots on the intended Firm Ground (FG) surface. Check the studs for any debris or damage that might be affecting grip. If playing on slightly softer ground, consider if an SG (Soft Ground) or AG (Artificial Grass) boot might be more appropriate.
Difficulty with ball control.
Ensure the GripControl Pro finish is clean. Wipe the upper with a slightly damp cloth to restore grip. Practice with the ball to get accustomed to the boot's feel.
Seams or materials appear to be separating.
Inspect for damage. If the boots are within the warranty period and the damage is due to a manufacturing defect, contact the retailer. Minor wear and tear may occur with extensive use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These football boots come ready to wear. Ensure you have the correct size for a comfortable and secure fit. The adaptive upper should conform to your foot shape with initial wear.
Compatibility:
Pitch Type: Designed for Firm Ground (FG). This means they are best suited for natural grass pitches that are slightly damp or dry, and artificial grass pitches that are short and well-maintained.

Care:
Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt and mud with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
