Latest Puma Shoe Reviews
Puma Playmaker Pro
The Puma Playmaker Pro is Puma’s most affordable hoop shoe in 2023. The shoe retails for just $80. For the price, you get a reasonable amount of performance on the court. Traction is excellent, but won’t be the most durable outdoors, cushioning, provided by a slab of Profoam, is very reactive without much compression or impact protection, and support is just enough to get you where you are going. The best feature of the shoe, and in this aspect you are getting a ton of bang for your buck are in the materials. You get a mix of textiles and synthetic leather overlays with some small premium suede esthetic details. Watch the full review. Price: $80
Puma MB 02
The Puma Playmaker MB 02 is the highly anticipated second signature shoe of the Charlotte Hornets superstar, LaMelo Ball. The Puma MB 01 was the best basketball shoe of last year, so the MB 02 had a very high standard to meet… and didn’t. The shoe is not terrible by any means, but it can be labeled a disappointment. The Puma MB 02 features good traction, a dense and reactive cushioning system, and not-so-great materials and support features. Watch the full review. Price: $130
Puma TRC Blaze Court
The Puma Playmaker TRC Blaze Court is a great, under-the-radar, performance model from Puma. There wasn’t much noise surrounding this shoe but it has proven to be a great on-court model. With the Puma TRC Blaze Court you get some effective and grippy traction, bouncy cushioning which is equal parts reactive and plush, and nice support features. Durability can be an issue so keep that in mind. Read the full review. Price: $120 $79
