FAQs
What does FG/AG mean for these soccer shoes?
FG/AG stands for Firm Ground/Artificial Grass. This means the soleplate and stud configuration are designed to provide optimal traction and performance on both firm, natural grass pitches and modern artificial turf surfaces.
Are these shoes suitable for narrow or wide feet?
The PUMA Future 7 Match features a mid-cut slip-on construction that provides a snug fit. While it adapts to many foot shapes, players with particularly wide or narrow feet may find they need to try them on to ensure optimal comfort. Info needed: [specific fit profile from manufacturer]
How do I clean my PUMA Future 7 Match shoes?
After each use, clean off mud and dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Remove insoles if possible and allow the shoes to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area. Do not machine wash or use direct heat for drying.
Can I use these boots on indoor courts or street surfaces?
No, these FG/AG boots are specifically designed for firm natural grass and artificial turf. Using them on indoor courts, concrete, or other hard surfaces can damage the soleplate and compromise performance and durability.
How important is the heel padding?
The integrated heel padding is crucial for comfort, especially during extended play. It helps to cushion the heel, reduce friction, and prevent blisters, contributing to a more comfortable and focused playing experience.
Is there a break-in period for these shoes?
Yes, like most performance soccer shoes, a short break-in period is often recommended. This allows the materials, especially the mid-cut construction, to mold and adapt to the unique contours of your foot for a personalized and comfortable fit.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or difficult to put on.
The mid-cut slip-on design is meant to be snug. Try wearing thin socks initially. Over a few uses, the materials should adapt slightly to your foot shape. If discomfort persists, ensure you have the correct size.
Lack of grip on the pitch.
Ensure you are using the boots on compatible surfaces (Firm Ground or Artificial Grass). Check the soleplate for excessive mud or debris buildup, which can reduce traction. Also, inspect studs for wear; heavily worn studs may reduce grip.
Foot discomfort or blisters developing.
Ensure your laces are tied correctly – not too loose (allowing movement) and not too tight (causing pressure). Make sure you are wearing appropriate soccer socks. If new, the boots may require a short break-in period. If issues persist, consider professional fit assessment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
First Use & Fit
- Unpack: Carefully remove shoes from packaging.
- Try On: Slip your foot into the mid-cut construction. The slip-on design is intended to be snug. Ensure your heel is comfortably seated against the heel padding.
- Lacing: Secure the laces firmly but not overly tight. Adjust until the fit feels secure across your midfoot without pinching.
- Walk Around: Take a few steps and perform some light movements (e.g., small jogs, pivots) to get a feel for the boots. Some initial tightness is normal with slip-on designs.
Compatibility
These boots feature an FG/AG soleplate, meaning they are compatible with:
- FG (Firm Ground): Natural grass pitches that are firm or slightly wet.
- AG (Artificial Grass): Modern artificial turf surfaces.
Avoid using these boots on hard ground (HG) or indoor (IC) surfaces, as this can damage the soleplate and reduce performance.
Care & Maintenance
To prolong the life and maintain the performance of your PUMA Future 7 Match FG/AG Soccer Shoes:
- Clean After Each Use: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt, mud, and grass clippings from the upper and soleplate.
- Remove Insole: If possible, remove the insole after play to allow for better air circulation and drying.
- Air Dry: Do not dry shoes near direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight) as this can damage materials. Stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help retain shape, then let them air dry in a well-ventilated area.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Odour Control: Use shoe deodorizers or baking soda sachets to combat odours if necessary. Do not machine wash.
