PUMA Women's Proadapt Alphacat Golf Shoe

Product Information

Connor is a PR professional by day and golfer by night. He currently attends Arizona State University where he is working on a Master's degree in Social Technology. The shoe’s upper is unique. Similar to waffle-weave patterning, the EXO Shell is made up of an engendered mesh with a TPU film that gives the PROADAPT ALPHACAT excellent support, structure and waterproofing. I also quite like what PUMA has done at the top of the shoe with its fabric strap and additional grey padded area around the top of the Achilles and underneath the ankle. This is easily one of the best spikeless tractions I’ve ever experienced. It’s funny how different shoes with different patterns can still perform so well. In contrast to the FootJoy Fuel (one of my favorites), the traction looks vastly different but performs just as well. Fit Organically - Altered Traction- Traction inspired by nature - strategically designed directional lugs in proper zones for increased traction throughout swing for more grip and power.

Both are good options, however, recently I’ve been favoring the low-profile ride of the Alphacat. This is definitely a personal preference thing. If you’re in need of the MOST cushion, you should look elsewhere. But like a guard shoe on the basketball court, the Alphacat is all about feeling connected to the ground. TractionPUMA’s ADAPT Foam — a combination of resistant polymer and EVA cushioning — offers a high degree of impact resistance, energy return and great ground feel, making the shoe exceptional to walk in. Puma's all new proprietary ADAPT Foam midsole provides stable cushioning, utilising a mixture of the highest-grade EVA Cushioning and Styrene- an impact-resistant foam that provides excellent dimensional stability. The combination of the two materials provides you with both high energy return and ground feel. A spiked shoe to compete with the very best. The improvements on last year's model are minimal, but it provides excellent traction, support and a sharp look.

PROADAPT Multi Material Outsole, which features a high-durometer, abrasion resistant TPU perimeter that provides great stability and traction on soft surfaces P lease note: These size charts have been provided by the manufacturer and should be used as a guide. PUMA have always been a front runner when pushing the boundaries to design trendy yet functional golf shoes and the GS-Fast, an update on their much talked about RS-G Golf Shoes, certainly continues that trend. These are a statement shoe for those players wanting to complete a streetwear look on the course. Admittedly these shoes will not be everyone's cup of tea and we did get several comments about them from playing partners and other members of the golf course when we first tested them out. Our range of GS-Fast golf shoes take design inspiration from our much-loved “RS” line of trainers, but for GS we’ve added golf twist. With an outsole designed to offer superb traction, you can keep your foot-in whether you’re on tee-ing off or playing out of the bunker. Like most of our golf shoes, the GS-Fast are also constructed with a fully waterproof upper to keep your feet dry and comfortable even in adverse conditions. 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.

Why did I love the Adapt Foam cushion on the PROADAPT Alphacat? Ground feel. The cushion is low-profile enough to provide awesome ground feel and awareness, but also plenty soft and responsive for underfoot comfort and energy return. Blending urban streetwear styles with golf, PUMA has developed a versatile golf shoe that provides fantastic comfort and support to your feet and ankles. When it comes to the right fit it is also worth considering different laces. Normal laces are good for most but for some golfers, BOA laced shoes provide more convenient fastening and shouldn’t loosen during the course of a round, but are usually a tad more expensive. Pushing the boundaries of performance and style, the Puma PROADAPT ALPHACAT Golf Shoes combines a new multi-durometer traction system with premium technologies to give you the Alpha of all spikeless shoes.
