FAQs
What does 'FG' mean for these boots?
'FG' stands for Firm Ground. These boots are specifically designed and optimized for use on natural grass pitches that are dry and firm.
Can I use these boots on artificial grass (AG)?
No, these boots are not recommended for artificial grass. Using FG boots on AG surfaces can lead to excessive wear on the studs and soleplate, reduce grip, and potentially void your warranty. Puma offers specific AG versions for artificial turf.
How do I clean my Puma Ultra 5 Ultimate FG boots?
After use, gently brush off loose dirt and mud. Wipe the boots down with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
What is PWRTAPE SQD?
PWRTAPE SQD is a strategically placed support frame within the boot's upper. It's designed to provide an optimal balance of agility and stability, especially during quick movements and changes of direction.
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
While the Ultra 5 Ultimate has a streamlined fit for speed, individual fit can vary. It's best to try them on to ensure comfort, especially if you have wider feet. Some users find they can stretch slightly over time.
What is the significance of the SPEEDSYSTEM soleplate?
The SPEEDSYSTEM soleplate is engineered for superior traction and propulsion. Its design, including the FastTrax studs and a unique three-stud heel setup, is based on extensive research to maximize acceleration, braking, and cutting efficiency on the pitch, making you quicker off the mark and during directional changes.
Are these boots made with recycled materials?
Yes, the upper of the Puma Ultra 5 Ultimate FG boot is made with at least 20% recycled materials, reflecting Puma's commitment to sustainability.
Troubleshooting
Reduced grip or slipping on the pitch
Ensure you are playing on a firm ground surface. These boots are specifically designed for FG and will not perform optimally on soft ground or artificial turf. Check studs for wear or damage.
Discomfort or rubbing during play
Verify you have the correct size. Ensure laces are tied securely, but not too tightly. A short break-in period is often needed. Wear appropriate football socks that offer cushioning and prevent movement.
Boots getting dirty quickly or retaining mud
Clean your boots immediately after each use. Remove excess mud with a soft brush, then wipe with a damp cloth. Allow them to air dry naturally, avoiding direct heat.
Loss of ball control despite GripControl Pro
Check if the textured surface is clean and free from dirt buildup. Ensure the boots fit snugly, as a loose fit can affect touch. Practice dribbling to adapt to the boot's feel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup & First Use
- Lacing: Ensure the boots are laced securely but not overly tight. Adjust the laces to achieve a snug fit that locks your foot in place without causing discomfort.
- Break-in Period: Like all high-performance football boots, a short break-in period may be beneficial. Wear them for light training sessions before competitive matches to allow them to conform to your foot shape.
Compatibility
- Surface: These boots are designed exclusively for firm ground (FG) surfaces. This means natural grass pitches that are dry and relatively hard.
- Not Recommended For: Artificial grass (AG), soft ground (SG), or indoor courts. Using them on unsuitable surfaces can lead to reduced performance, accelerated wear, and potential injury.
Care & Maintenance
- Cleaning After Use: After each use, remove loose dirt and mud with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials.
- Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Consider using boot trees to help maintain their shape.
- Sockliner Care: The removable sockliner can be hand-washed with mild soap and water if needed, then air-dried.
