Confirming our leaks from yesterday, Puma is back at it again, providing Neymar with yet another signature edition boot. This time, it's the Future Ultimate 'Instituto', paying homage to the superstar's Brazilian roots.
Despite his move to the Saudi Pro League, Neymar's legacy of signature boots lives on. What makes this particular release extra special is the collaboration with kids from the Instituto Projeto Neymar Jr., a community center founded by Neymar himself. Puma worked closely with these children, allowing them to create graphics inspired by their idol. The result is a vibrant and eye-catching boot, featuring a mix of different graphics designed by the children.
The Future Ultimate 'Instituto' is a visual delight, with a base color of "Puma White" and pops of Racing Blue, Lemon Meringue, and Parakeet Green. These bold hues pay tribute to the classic colors of the Brazilian national team. To add an extra personal touch, the insole of the boot showcases the names of the children from the Instituto Projeto Neymar Jr. who contributed to the design.

Additionally, the FUZIONFIT360 upper ensures adaptability and support, combining dual mesh, stretchy knit, and supplemental PWRTAPE for optimal performance. 3D textures at key contact zones aid grip and ball control, while the Dynamic Motion System outsole provides stability and flexibility.

Neymar himself expressed his deep connection to the Instituto, stating, "The Institute is very special to me. Since its inauguration in 2014, we have been able to support underprivileged children and their families through sports, education, and healthcare. The Instituto is a place where kids can go after school to learn extra skills that will help shape their future. I am very proud of the team behind this amazing place and the impact we have had on the community, reaching over 10 thousand people. Being able to work with some of the kids on a collection was a beautiful moment for me, and I hope to make them proud when I step onto the pitch wearing the boots they designed for me."
The Future Ultimate Neymar 'Instituto' boots are already available for purchase, priced at $250 USD (230 GBP/250 Euro).
