CARLSBAD, Calif. – PUMA Golf today introduced the new ALPHACAT NITRO, a spikeless shoe with premium cushioning that provides explosive energy and propulsion with each step. With the new Alphacat Nitro PUMA continues to raise the bar in the spikeless golf shoe category, creating a fashion forward design with hi-tech materials and advanced performance.
The ALPHACAT NITRO design features a new and innovative NITRO FOAM material, which is infused with nitrogen gas to create exceptional cushioning and energy return with every step. The newly designed material is also extremely lightweight, allowing for an energy saving design. The Upper EXOShell is engineered with mesh to provide enhanced structure and support both during the swing and while walking. In addition, a Dual Material Alpha Traction sole design provides grip and stability in a wide variety of turf and weather conditions as well as impressive durability. And true to form for all PUMA kicks, a unique Formstripe External Heel Counter looks cool wherever the shoes are worn.
“Our goal at PUMA is to constantly innovate and the ALPHACAT NITRO is cutting-edge,” said Andrew Lawson, Senior PLM, Footwear, PUMA Golf. “We infused NITRO Foam into the midsole, which provides lightweight performance and energy return. Players who try it will notice the difference immediately.”
The ALPHACAT NITRO ($160) shoes are available in 6 colorways in the laced model and 4 colorways in the DISC model, in men’s sizes 7-13, 14, 15. The ALPHACAT NITRO will be available at retail and on pumagolf.com today in the US and Canada.
