Puma Golf has stayed busy throughout the first half of 2022. Earlier this year, they brought us the huge forum favorite in the ProAdapt AlphaCat golf shoes and today are getting ready to deliver on the new Ignite Articulate.
The Ignite Articulate is their latest in cleated innovation with an all-new design that features an articulating outsole, midsole and upper that actually flexes with your foot. Flexible and traction combined. This is where the Ignite Articulate steps in and delivers with a modern athletic silhouette that is designed to offer performance without any sacrifice in comfort.
ENGINEERED ARTICULATION – Strategically engineered grooves in the outsole, midsole, and upper, allow the shoe to flex with your foot, while delivering the highest level of support.
8-CLEAT TRACTION PATTERN – A redesigned traction pattern features eight strategically place Tornado cleats in high-force areas provides increased traction.
ARTICULATING PWRCAGE – A strong and lightweight saddle that is thinner across the midfoot allows the cage to wrap securely around any foot shape delivering support and stability throughout the swing. Also, the cage has a slight increase in thickness around the lacing to provide extra lock-down support.
EXOShell – Upper material with engineered mesh to provide structure fused underneath TPU Film that provides support and a 1-year waterproof warranty
IGNITE FOAM – Revolutionary and proprietary midsole foam provides energy return, responsive ride, and superior step-in comfort.
VERSATILE PERFORMANCE LAST – A new last shape delivers excellent fit, unrivaled comfort and a stylish toe-down look.
The Puma Golf Ignite Articulate golf shoes drop with Men’s laced and Men’s disc along with five different colorways. Wide options are also available in the lace version and sizes range from 7-15. Cost will be $170 and available beginning today both at retail stores like BudgetGolf.com or Pumagolf.com.
Yep, I can relate. My home course has three ponds and a creek flowing through so one of my pre-requisites for an everyday shoe is waterproofing.
I dont have them side by side right this second, but they appear to be. Same comfort level too so far. I will get them out on the course next week for some walking.
After trying on multiple different pairs in prep for the MC you really can’t go wrong with Puma shoes.
Totally agree on price. I feel like golf shoe pricing has sky rocketed recently. Gonna be $200 soon enough.

They looked really comfortable. I don’t know how light they were but they looked very light.
They weren’t heavy at all. I really enjoyed them.
I would agree with that. They were a little harder to get on than the AlphaCats but maybe that’s just because they need to get streched out a little. I currently have these, the Gray AlphaCats, the white, red and blue AlphaCats coming in, and the white Fasten8’s. I will be switching back and forth between them. I’m also looking at the ProAdapt Delta Spectra’s on the site.

these shoes (I have two of the disc version) are so comfortable.
I’ve only worn alphacats from their latest lines. Eager to try another style.
I found these more comfortable than the Alphacats….there is a hot take.
same sizing?
I dig..
yes.
That’s saying something. I love my Alphacats.
That “green lagoon” color has popped up in several items for the spring line. I like it.
I was the opposite and though the Alphacats were a little more comfortable. These were close though.
I had the original ignites and I thought the Alphacats were way better in terms of comfort
It has to happen.
I am trying to fathom how this is even possible!
I know everyone is different but these just felt more comfortable to me in the toe area. I don’t have a wide foot and the Alphacats just feel so tight in that area, but these felt great.
I need to season to start soon so I can focus on actually playing rather than looking at golf stuff online.
Very comfy, great presentation, and a little bit more of an upscale look from some of the other Puma models.
I am feeling both of these may have to happen.
