Product Information

Not only does the Nitro look crisp and modern, but the comfort and grip is some of the best on the market. Available in multiple colorways too. Yes. Pairs of golf shoes made by Puma regularly make it into our list of the best golf shoes. Puma make some excellent spiked and spikeless golf shoes for men and women. Do Puma golf shoes fit true? Versatile Style - Refined anatomical last provides an excellent fit and ample forefoot volume for unrivalled comfort Our range of GS-Fast golf shoes take design inspiration from our much-loved “RS” line of trainers, but for GS we’ve added golf twist. With an outsole designed to offer superb traction, you can keep your foot-in whether you’re on tee-ing off or playing out of the bunker. Like most of our golf shoes, the GS-Fast are also constructed with a fully waterproof upper to keep your feet dry and comfortable even in adverse conditions. IGNITE Foam– Revolutionary or not, IGNITE is PUMA’s take on a responsive (and foam-cushioning) midsole material. It’s all part of what PUMA calls “Comfort Construction.”

Standard sizes are available in six colorways while wide sizes are limited to just four. The Disc version is available in six colorways as well but wide sizes are not available. The first is, as I mentioned, the wide version isn’t as wide as some other wide shoes. My feet are only kinda fat, so I’m good, but the width could be problematic for guys with really fat feet. I’m looking at you, Dave Wolfe. For sure, PUMA has made some heavily structured designs and it has definitely dabbled in the lightweight, flexible mesh-y, rubber, unconventional design space as well, but the Articulate is different entirely and that’s a good thing.

Introduction

If there’s any discomfort during this exhaustive test, it’s a safe bet I’ll have problems on the course. If not, we’re all clear to play golf.

PUMA Golf calls the IGNITE Articulate the most versatile performance shoe it has ever made. I can’t swear to the accuracy of that assertion but, speaking as a guy who has tried just about every golf shoe PUMA has made in the last decade, I think there is something to it. One important change I noticed was the waterproof material covers the entire toe box. This feature, which Puma dubbed the “PWRFRAME,” gives the top of the shoe a more uniform look. It also provides some functional benefits which I will talk about later on. Not that it’s supposed to be, but the IGNITE Articulate definitely isn’t the Titan Tour. Initially, that was the bad news. What I found on the course is that the PUMA IGNITE Articulate is the closest thing I’ve found to my favorite golf shoe– the FootJoy FJ Freestyle. Style is inherently subjective but there’s nothing inherently off-putting about the PUMA IGNITE Articulate. For those of you who have bemoaned the modern style of the two BOA shoes I’ve reviewed so far, the relatively conventional design should help you sleep easier tonight. I haven’t decided if I like it more than the Titan Tour (I just re-spiked those, too) but it’s absolutely my favorite PUMA shoe since the Titan Tour.The Ignite PU foam is included to provide a high-energy return and long-lasting cushioning. Time will tell if the Ignite foam cushioning will serve me for a number of years, but if my experience with the shoe so far is anything to go by, I have full confidence in this product. Many players choose to have one pair for winter and another, lighter pair for summer to keep them fresh and suit different requirements. A spiked shoe to compete with the very best. The improvements on last year's model are minimal, but it provides excellent traction, support and a sharp look.
