Puma Netfit Technology has officially launched with the Speed Ignite Netfit for $140. “Sometimes I’m doing power work, and then sometimes it’s speed and agility work, so it’s important to have a shoe that’s flexible enough to do the right exercise.” “I do a lot of training - sometimes a bit too much - and it’s always different,” said Bolt. Runners can continue to customize and refine their own lacing style.Īccording to Puma, Usain Bolt will be wearing shoes with Netfit as part of his training for the World Championships in London. These five options are just a jumping off point.
Heel Support lacing provides runners with a tight fit around the heel.
Those with the opposite problem can try Narrow Foot lacing. Runners with wider feet that need room to breath can use Wide Foot lacing. Stability lacing provides runners with additional medial support. Standard lacing is meant for runners that require minimal support. To start people off, Puma has provided five different lacing options. Netfit is coming to several sports and performance shoes for the track, gym, or street. This allows owners to lace their shoes however they see fit to match their style, needs, or shape. The uppers of Puma’s new shoes combine a high-grade engineered net with form-fitting base materials. With a netted mesh exterior, users have gained complete control over how they lace up. In one shoe, this new system offers near infinite performance and style options. Netfit is a new lacing system that drastically reduces the need for variant models. In an innovative approach, Puma has created a system that allows owners to customize the fit themselves. Minor variations in the arch, sole, upper, and laces can completely change a shoe’s performance. No matter the brand of athletic shoe, countless models are released each year to accommodate every kind of foot.
