PUMA Men's Ignite Articulate Golf Shoe

Product Information

In my estimation, the Freestyle is one of the most unstructured spiked golf shoes ever made and, while that might sound like a bad thing (and for some it is a bad thing), there’s a “freedom of movement, let your feet explore the ground” kind of feeling. Admittedly these shoes will not be everyone's cup of tea and we did get several comments about them from playing partners and other members of the golf course when we first tested them out. I’ve found that more modern casual sporty shoes can often feel almost a bit flimsy when wearing and certainly swinging hard in, but these spiked golf shoes have hit both the comfort and stability nails on the head, giving me the player great versatile performance.

If Puma isn't the brand for you, we've made other brand-specific guides on FootJoy, adidas and Nike too. We tested the grey and white model which really looks smart thanks to the the shock of orange that dominates the heel and the faux mesh pattern across the whole shoe. They look really nice, and with the comfort and usability that this article pertains to, would almost certainly be on my list for a future shoe purchase.

Normal laces are good for most but for some golfers, BOA laced shoes provide more convenient fastening and shouldn’t loosen during the course of a round, but are usually a tad more expensive.Puma are well known for designing some of the best golf shoes in the game and we loved the visuals on these trainers. If there’s any discomfort during this exhaustive test, it’s a safe bet I’ll have problems on the course. These Puma shoes are as well-rounded as any golf shoes I’ve worn this year, comfortable, modern design, and have plenty of grip to swing hard in.

The Elevate does look very similar to its predecessor and we loved the combination of materials the brand has used to develop what is a fantastic looking golf trainer.So, yeah, while I’m still firmly in the laces are for suckers camp, I’m not entirely “ride or die” on that. According to Puma, it refers to the Articulation Geometry which allows the shoe to move with your foot while still providing strong levels of support throughout the swing. We tested the HydroLite from FootJoy back in 2021 and it is still one of the top models for waterproof protection out there. Since those humble beginnings, our endeavour has blossomed into a robust and trusted online retailer, representing the leading brands in the golf industry.

Going up against the likes of the FootJoy Tour Alpha, adidas Tour360 22 and Under Armour HOVR Drive 2, the Puma Ignite Articulate has arrived readymade to be a contender for the best spiked golf shoe of the year.Having tested them on wet and dry conditions, we've had no problems with slipping or balance here, which is a big deal considering they are a spikeless shoe. I’m certainly not going to wear a shoe that doesn’t fit because of some misguided principle (see: laces are for suckers) and since PUMA Golf just started offering wide sizes like yesterday, I’m going to let the lack of wide sizes in Disc versions go … for now. I know some of you obsess over such things, so it’s my job to let you know, but it’s not a deal-breaker for me. I’ve worn them on dry turf at Sand Moor golf club and all day filming instruction content at a slightly damp Celtic Manor, and the performance has been excellent.

Style is inherently subjective but there’s nothing inherently off-putting about the PUMA IGNITE Articulate. This is something I look for as an early extending, back-foot-slipping golfer, but I know I’ll have no issue with these. Many players choose to have one pair for winter and another, lighter pair for summer to keep them fresh and suit different requirements. The white/grey colorway goes perfectly with a grey pair of slacks and they just didn’t seem as out of place visually as we were expecting. I tried this shoe on and while the midsole and outsole were really nice, I found the upper flexed in an odd spot, causing a uncomfortable pinch.An upgrade on the Puma Ignite Articulate the Ignite Elevate expands on what was one of the best golf shoes to be released in 2022.
