Unveiled at the exclusive PUMA NITRO™ Lab in Tokyo – coinciding with the start of the World Athletics Championships Tokyo 2025 – the collection translates the cutting-edge technology of PUMA’s existing innovation into futuristic, never-before-seen running models.
In the same way racing car manufacturers use concept cars to test boundary-pushing ideas before they hit the road, PUMA has created the FAST-XP collection to showcase the next generation of speed-driven innovation. Each shoe draws inspiration from PUMA’s most advanced track technologies, re-engineered for both track and field, and road running.
FAST-XP SPT
Inspired by the Berserker – the spike worn by 400m hurdle world record holder Karsten Warholm – the FAST-XP SPT is purpose-built for a 200m and 400m sprinter. With a split, asymmetrical 3D PWRPLATE for banking efficiency on curves, NITROFOAM™ Elite pod for explosive energy return, and a posterior heel wedge to support longer sprint events, it’s engineered to amplify every stride, from the blocks to the finish line.
FAST-XP LVT
Taking cues from 13-time world record holder Mondo Duplantis’ pole vault spike, the FAST-XP LVT reimagines vertical propulsion for the road. With a dual-density midsole, full-length carbon PWRPLATE spine, and hollow heel geometry, it blends cushioning, stiffness, and reduced weight for elite-level responsiveness mile after mile.
FAST-XP PLS
Born from the Berserker’s propulsive DNA, the FAST-XP PLS transforms sprint innovation into a high-performance road shoe. Featuring cascade-shaped NITROFOAM™ geometry paired with NITROFOAM™ Elite and PWRPLATE stability, it delivers plush cushioning, high energy return, and efficient propulsion for long-distance speed.
FAST-XP SPG
Evolving from the FAST RB NITRO™ Elite, the SPG mirrors the explosive rebound of a springboard. Its dual-plate construction, forefoot rocker apex, and strategic NITROFOAM™ Elite pods maximize energy storage and release for fast runners chasing their edge.
FAST-XP BLD
Inspired by the dynamics of carbon blades, the FAST-XP BLD is engineered for aggressive propulsion. A stiffer heel with midfoot rocker works in harmony with flexible forefoot elements and a PWRPLATE-enhanced NITROFOAM™ system, enabling rapid transitions and powerful push-offs.
