Future 18.1 Netfit FG/AG's superb solid outsole
A new feature found on the Puma Future 18.1 Firm Ground Netfit is the Rapidagility hybrid outsole. It is made of a lightweight and flexible Pebax material. The soleplate also comes with torsion bars for stability and responsiveness.

Puma Future 18.1 Netfit FG/AG's innovative construction
The most distinct part of the Puma 18.1 Firm Ground Netfit upper is the Netfit technology. On the launch colorway, it is the yellow net material found on the upper. This knitted mesh structure has hexagon-shaped holes that act as lacing systems. They offer customized lacing depending on your foot shape and size for that ultimate locked-in feel.
With the Netfit technology, you can tighten the laces to create tension in certain areas. It acts just like a corset, but for the foot. You can also create a cleaner, laceless strike zone if you prefer.
Another amazing purpose of the Netfit system is to provide texture on the surface of the upper. Thus, this soccer cleat can deliver a ton of grip on the ball and a pingy sensation when you shoot.
Dynamic upper of Future 18.1 Netfit
The actual upper is made up of a form-fitting, textile-based material. Together with the Netfit system, the upper provides a cushioned and responsive touch on the ball.
The one-piece upper construction of the Puma Future 18.1 Firm Ground Netfit also features the evoKNIT technology on the collar and strike zone. It provides a tight but comfortable sock-like sensation around the ankle for a secure, locked-in feel.
The mid-top collar has a unique shape which peaks at the front and the back. It is also ribbed in front in order to reduce friction.
