FAQs
Are these suitable for professional football matches?
No, the VS-1 Contact Football Boots are designed as a lifestyle shoe inspired by football heritage. They are best suited for casual wear, training, or recreational play, not for the demands of professional matches.
What does 'VS-1 collection' refer to?
The VS-1 collection takes cues from Puma's V1 football boots and the radical DNA of early 2000s match day style, offering a blend of retro aesthetics and modern comfort.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from textile with synthetic leather and rubber overlays, providing durability and a comfortable fit.
How should I clean my VS-1 boots?
Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap sparingly. Always allow them to air dry naturally and avoid direct heat.
What is the fit like?
These boots feature a regular fit with a rounded toe, offering a comfortable and familiar feel for most wearers.
Can I wear these for running or other sports?
While comfortable, these boots are specifically designed with football-inspired features. For optimal performance and safety in other sports like running, it is recommended to use footwear designed for those specific activities.
What is the purpose of the lace cover?
The lace cover provides a cleaner aesthetic and helps to keep the laces securely fastened during wear, preventing them from coming undone unintentionally.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing them with the type of socks you typically use for football. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow the materials to break in.
Laces keep coming undone
Ensure the laces are tied securely. Utilize the provided lace cover to help keep the knot in place and prevent loosening during activity.
Tread/grip feels insufficient on certain surfaces
These boots are best suited for firm, dry surfaces. For wet or soft ground conditions, a different type of football boot with more aggressive stud patterns would be more appropriate.
Material shows signs of wear quickly
Avoid using these boots for high-intensity matches or on abrasive surfaces. Clean and care for them regularly as per the instructions to prolong their lifespan.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These boots are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure they fit comfortably before use. The lace cover can be secured over the laces once tied.
Compatibility: Designed primarily as a lifestyle football shoe, they are best suited for firm ground (FG) surfaces for light training or casual play. They are not recommended for professional match play on varied or aggressive pitches.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris from the upper. For stubborn stains, a mild soap can be used sparingly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Laces: If laces become dirty, they can be removed and hand-washed separately.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to maintain their shape and protect them from dust.
