Budget-friendly gift ideas Puma

Puma, a brand born in Herzogenaurach

Puma is a German brand, born in Herzogenaurach, Bavaria. In January 1948, Rudolf Dassler registered his sports shoe factory there, initially called Ruda, a contraction of his first name and surname. That same year, he registered the name Puma, chosen to evoke the speed, agility and endurance of the great feline from the Americas. His brother Adolf ran adidas, which was located on the other side of the Aurach, the river that runs through the town: the rivalry between the two brothers marked the entire history of German sport. The bouncing feline of the logo still signs every product, from the smallest accessory to the competition shoe.

The selection is organised by brand:

Balls and bags Puma for footballers

Puma has been involved in football for decades: the King, launched in 1968, fitted Pelé and then Maradona. A ball from the brand continues this story at a low price. It is chosen according to the player's age: size three for under eight years, size four up to around twelve years, size five from thirteen years onwards, like adults. The sports bag holds the outfit, towel and water bottle, often with a separate compartment for muddy boots; the drawlstring bag, ultra-light, is enough for a pair of shoes or a spare shirt on training days at the club.

Caps and beanies with the feline logo

The cap Puma comes in sports models, light and breathable for running or tennis, and in stylish cotton models, with a curved visor and embroidered logo. Its adjustable back closure fits almost all heads, making it a safe gift. The beanie in knit, plain, with a cuff or pompom, accompanies winter journeys and the sidelines; a fleece-lined model keeps warmth around the ears. For a teenager, we go for a sober colour, black or grey, where the embroidered feline stands out clearly; for a child, a bright colour also makes them more visible in the street.

Good deals

Great deals can also be found in good plans, promotions, clearance, sales, and Black Friday. The new arrivals showcase the latest collections, and items shipped within 24h are prepared and sent out within 24 hours. The highlights of the year follow a stable order: Black Friday at the end of autumn, the year-end holidays, the winter sales, the French Days in spring, then the summer sales and back to school.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size of Puma socks to choose?

Puma socks are sold in size ranges, such as from thirty-nine to forty-two or from forty-three to forty-six. You take the range that includes your usual size; between two ranges, choose the larger one to avoid the sock being too tight.

How to wash a cap without deforming it?

Clean it by hand, with lukewarm water and a little mild soap and a soft brush, without twisting it. It then dries in the open air, resting on a bowl or a round shape, to keep the shape of the crown and visor.

What is the Formstrip of Puma shoes?

It's the band that runs down the side of Puma shoes since the late 1950s. It originated as a reinforcement to stabilise the foot, placed on the outside of the upper, before becoming the brand's visual signature.

What is Puma dryCELL technology?

dryCELL refers to Puma's technical fabrics that wick moisture away from the garment, where it evaporates more quickly. A dryCELL t-shirt thus stays drier and lighter than a cotton t-shirt during exercise.

What Puma gift for a child under ten?

A size three or four football, a colourful beanie, or a drawlstring bag for the club make for real delights. Avoid clothes that are too tight and prefer items that will be used every week.
