The IGNITE Articulate is Puma Golf's most versatile performance shoe to date. Every component of these spiked shoes has been precisely developed to move with the golfer's foot during the swing, from the Articulation Geometry on the outsole, midsole, and upper to the cushioning of the Ignite foam. I haven’t decided if I like it more than the Titan Tour (I just re-spiked those, too) but it’s absolutely my favorite PUMA shoe since the Titan Tour.

A solid spikeless shoe that excels in all round grip and support around the ankle. Make sure to get these half a size bigger than you normally would. As far as wide golf shoes go, the IGNITE Articulate isn’t as wide as some others. It’s definitely not FootJoy Tour Alpha BOA wide, for example. It’s fine for me but if you need a really wide shoe, the Articulate might not get it done. Not that it’s supposed to be, but the IGNITE Articulate definitely isn’t the Titan Tour. Initially, that was the bad news. What I found on the course is that the PUMA IGNITE Articulate is the closest thing I’ve found to my favorite golf shoe– the FootJoy FJ Freestyle.Tony, you had me at “the PUMA IGNITE Articulate is the closest thing I’ve found to my favorite golf shoe – the FootJoy FJ Freestyle.” Since those humble beginnings, our endeavour has blossomed into a robust and trusted online retailer, representing the leading brands in the golf industry. We take immense pride in being your go-to destination for all things golf!

In ourWe Tried Itseries, we put gear to the test and let you know if it works as advertised. Blending urban streetwear styles with golf, PUMA has developed a versatile golf shoe that provides fantastic comfort and support to your feet and ankles. The IGNITE Articulate is the most versatile performance shoe Puma Golf has ever made. Between the Articulation Geometry on the outsole, midsole, and upper, to the cushioning of the Ignite foam, every detail of these spiked shoes has been meticulously designed to move with the golfer's feet during the swing.

Cleat Traction Pattern (with HEX Traction Lugs)– Who’s counting, right? Anyway, the IGNITE Articulte features eight Tornado cleats which incidentally is the same number of cleats as my favorite golf shoe ever. More on that in a bit.

IGNITE Foam– Revolutionary or not, IGNITE is PUMA’s take on a responsive (and foam-cushioning) midsole material. It’s all part of what PUMA calls “Comfort Construction.” The GS-Fast comes with a wide rubber outsole that is littered with a ton of small rubber studs. That means these shoes are better used as a summer golf shoe but still performed very well in slightly soft autumnal conditions with their grippy outsole providing solid traction on the turf. They are also completely waterproof and are very easy to wipe down after your round. When trying a pair on for the first time, listen for the 'whoosh' sound when you slide your feet in - that's the sound of all the air leaving the shoe to confirm it is the correct size, but do a walking test to be sure. They shouldn't pinch anywhere, nor should your feet be moving around inside.

Articulating PWRCAGE– PUMA’s strategic use of vowels and capitalization is sometimes baffling but the point is that the PWRCAGE structure provides a more secure fit. To a degree, it mimics what you get with BOA and Disc systems. Tony believes that golfers deserve to know what's real and what's not, and that means MyGolfSpy's equipment coverage must extend beyond the so-called facts as dictated by the same companies that created them. For golfers who appreciate a little freedom of movement, there’s a lot to love about the P UMA IGNITE Articulate. When the sizing is right, it’s extremely comfortable right out of the box. There’s plenty of traction, your feet have some opportunity to explore and stability is still pretty damned good considering the nature of the design. In my estimation, the Freestyle is one of the most unstructured spiked golf shoes ever made and, while that might sound like a bad thing (and for some it is a bad thing), there’s a “freedom of movement, let your feet explore the ground” kind of feeling. It’s ideal for golfers who want more traction than many spikeless golf shoes deliver but still want some stability without feeling like they’re standing on a platform anchored to the ground.
