The ultimate running shoe which features an innovative foam technology that makes it the most responsive running shoe, the birth of PUMA Ignite was the result of a nine-year research and development programme.

PUMA IGNITE is the perfect example that coincides with their latest tagline PUMA’s ForeverFaster. Powering every stride is IGNITE foam, proprietary foam that provides responsive cushioning, optimal rebound and comfort. Strategically placed in the heel of the shoe is ForEverFoam — a compound used heavily in the automotive industry.



This premium foam in the shoe is what sets IGNITE apart and makes it one of a kind. This foam compound is what gives the shoe maximum durability. This material which results in long – lasting durability is special and it is entirely new to the market.

PUMA’s new aim is to strengthen its running platform with the advantage of IGNITE. The shoe is the ideal pair for everyday running.

In conjunction with the PUMA Ignite launch, PUMA will be launching their latest 21 Days Challenge for all Malaysians to join them and create the next ‘big thing’ on social media platforms. The objective of this campaign is to encourage all Malaysians to be involved in running activities and keep the momentum going for 21 days in a row, snap a picture of every session and upload it onto your social media account Instagram, Facebook or Twitter and redeem your prize.

PUMA Ignite is worn by Usain Bolt, the fastest man in the world. As quoted by Bolt during the global launch in New York last month, he says “IGNITE is a great a running shoe, along with PUMA spikes, I spend a lot of time training in this shoe as well and it really helps to sustain my energy levels. I love IGNITE for that.”
