June 2019 – If cushioning and responsiveness is what you are looking for in a running shoe, PUMA has three new styles under the ultimate HYBRID family on offer. The sports brand is launching the HYBRID Astro, HYBRID Fuego and HYBRID Sky, each of them providing unique technologies, different benefits and contrasting designs. However, all of them featuring the unmatchable HYBRID FOAM.
Why is HYBRID FOAM such a gamechanger? When running, PUMA’s IGNITE FOAM reacts first on impact, providing instant ENERGY RETURN. Then, NRGY beads act to provide the ULTIMATE CUSHIONING, giving back to the IGNITE FOAM, absorbing the energy, creating a rebound effect during the toe-off phase. The result is cushioning and energy return for your longer runs.
