FAQs
What age group are the Puma FUTURE PLAY boots intended for?
These boots are recommended for older kids, typically between the ages of 8 and 16 years.
Can I use these boots on an indoor artificial pitch?
The FG/AG designation means they are suitable for firm natural grass and artificial grass. They are not designed for indoor hard courts, which require specific indoor shoes.
How do I clean mud off the boots?
Remove excess mud with a dry brush, then use a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the boots or using harsh cleaning agents.
Are these boots suitable for players with wide feet?
The regular tongue construction offers a standard fit. Players with very wide feet might find them less accommodating; trying them on is recommended.
What is the benefit of the embossed zones on the upper?
The embossed zones are strategically placed to increase friction and grip on the ball, helping players maintain control during dribbling and passing.
Do these boots offer good ankle support?
The boot provides support through its upper construction and lacing system. However, they are not high-top boots and do not offer additional ankle bracing.
What does 'FG/AG' stand for?
FG/AG stands for Firm Ground / Artificial Grass, indicating the soleplate is designed to perform effectively on both types of surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight
Ensure you have laced them correctly and are wearing appropriate football socks. If still tight, consider trying a half-size up or exploring alternative lacing techniques.
Traction is poor on wet grass
Check if the boots are appropriate for the surface. The FG/AG soleplate is optimized for firm ground; very wet or muddy conditions might require different stud patterns.
Difficulty controlling the ball
Ensure the embossed zones on the upper are clean. Dirt or mud can reduce the effectiveness of the grip.
Stitching appears to be coming loose
Inspect the stitching carefully. If it is a minor cosmetic issue, it may not affect performance. For significant structural concerns, contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Ensure the boots are the correct size and fit snugly but comfortably.
- Lace up the boots evenly to secure the foot within the upper.
Compatibility:
- Surface: These boots are designed for Firm Natural (FG) and Artificial Grass (AG) surfaces. They are not recommended for soft ground, indoor courts, or hard, dry surfaces.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth. For tougher dirt, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Stuff the boots with newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture and help them retain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
- Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, to protect them from damage and excessive dust.
