PUMA Golf | Tech Talk | Phantomcat

How’s it going everybody Andrew Lawson here senior product line manager here at Puma golf here to talk to you about the new Phantom cat Nitro Phantom cat Nitro is a brand new shoe for us you’ll see it at the tour level um from guys like Ricky Fowler and and some of our other

Guys on staff when designing Phantom cat we challenged our design team to rethink what a spike is not only just a replaceable Spike but also what what about the the shape they came up with this new flex bike shape Flex bikes also dual injected where this inner part is a

Little bit firmer and stiffer which gives you stability but also traction that you need and then the perimeter is a little bit softer which allows the spike or each of these little traction elements to spay out which allows you to maintain traction throughout your swing no matter the LIE creates more surface

Area giving you more traction but also helps prevent unnecessary markings on the green making sure that the flex bike is also green safe we wanted to make sure that the the flex bike was completely integrated with the out soole so that the backside was completely flat which allows for more foam underneath

Your foot and like I said that equates to more Comfort but the other thing that we did to make sure that one the shoe was green safe and marched greens less was make sure that the secondary traction also is integrated with the flex bikes itself so you can see these

Secondary traction spines surround that Flex bike which allows the shoe to disperse your weight and leave a ghostlike imprint on greens altogether Phantom cat includes two of our most important Technologies Flex Spike and Nitro foam Nitro foam is a super critical process foam where they’re actually injecting nitrogen gas into the

Foam as they’re molding it into this shape what that does it creates little air pockets of nitrogen gas into this foam which makes it super lightweight but also super responsive making sure that you have that cushion exactly where you need it but also giving you explosive power the pro foam midsole

Also provides you with a nice and stable platform as well as giving you the comfort that you need to walk 18 holes even 36 if you choose to do so and never have your foot fatigue and in combination with a ful length TPU bottom it also gives you the stability for kind

Of those torsional movements that you see and then when it comes to the upper we didn’t take any shortcuts there either a full grain leather upper provides you with a super soft feel on the top of your foot hugs your foot nicely and also gives you that oneyear

Waterproof warranty with a really nice engineered mesh in the heel for more info on Phantom cat head to Puma golf.com or head to your local golf retailer to get a pair for Yourself
