PUMA Galaxis Pro Review: My ₹2,900 Running Shoes First Look
I bought the PUMA Galaxis Pro for ₹2,900 on Amazon during the festive sales. In my video I mention a normal price of around ₹6,000, and getting a good deal is why I picked this pair up. This PUMA Galaxis Pro review covers the unboxing, close-ups and a short balcony walk, along with my first impressions of the weight, cushioning and slightly stiff sole.
I haven’t run in them yet, so I can’t tell you about grip, long-run comfort or how the foam holds up over time. Treat this as a first impression of a budget running shoe, not a long-term test.

Watch my PUMA Galaxis Pro unboxing and first impressions
The video is the main record of this PUMA Galaxis Pro review. It shows the package, the box, close-ups of the upper, midsole and heel, the outsole, a short walk on my balcony and the part where I talk about the price. My first impressions come from that session. The Amazon listing details below are separate and are dated where mentioned.

Why I bought the PUMA Galaxis Pro
Before this pair, I was using Reebok shoes. The Galaxis Pro looked quite promising online, and the festive sales gave me a good deal on it. In the video I call these entry-level running shoes, the kind you find in the ₹2,000 to ₹3,000 bracket, and I wanted to check the fit, comfort and quality for myself.
I plan to use this pair for running, walking and the gym. This first look covers the unboxing and the first try-on, before that regular use begins.
Unboxing: the packaging was a bit loose
The order came from Amazon in a grey delivery bag, and the packaging and box felt a bit loose. If the box matters to you, for gifting or a possible return, check it when the delivery arrives.
Inside was a red PUMA shoe box. I ordered the grey and black colour, and my first reaction on opening it was that the shoes look quite nice.
Design and build
The upper is a grey mesh with a black heel section. There are orange stripes along the side and an orange PUMA cat logo, and the midsole is white. You can see all of it in the close-ups below.
The video includes close-ups of the mesh upper and the sole. I paid ₹2,900 for this pair and my first impression was positive, but one session can’t tell me how the materials will hold up over months of use.
The midsole has PROFOAM printed on the side. That label is visible in the footage. This first look doesn’t establish anything about the foam’s energy return or how long it lasts.
Weight and cushioning
The Galaxis Pro felt very light to me, and I mention it more than once in the video, including after trying them on. That’s a personal impression. I didn’t weigh the shoes, so I don’t have a number in grams to share.
The cushioning felt neither too soft nor too hard. I could feel the texture of the sole underfoot, and after trying them on I’d describe the comfort as very good for this price. I also expect them to give a good push while running, but this session didn’t include a run, so that part is still to be tested.
Sole and grip
The sole looked good to me, but it felt a little stiff when I tried the shoes on. I can’t say yet whether that stiffness will change with use.
I don’t know how the grip performs yet. I’ll be using these for running, walking and the gym, but this first look doesn’t tell you anything about grip on a treadmill, a track or a wet road.
Comfort on a short walk
Once I put them on, they felt comfortable, even with the slightly stiff sole. I walked around on my balcony in them, which is the walk you see in the video. It was a short try-on, not a run.
Fit and sizing are still unanswered
This first look doesn’t tell you whether the Galaxis Pro runs true to size, how much toe room it has or whether the heel slips during a run. If you’re between sizes, check the size chart and the return terms on the listing before you order.
PUMA Galaxis Pro price: what I paid
I paid ₹2,900. In the video I mention a normal price of around ₹6,000, which would make my price a little under half, but I haven’t verified that figure as the official MRP. At the time of writing (8 November 2026), the Amazon India listing showed ₹2,249 for UK 10 in Gray Echo-PUMA White-Orange Glo (product code 31176704). That is a dated observation for one size, not a guaranteed price.
As I said in the video, the price keeps varying, and if you can wait you may get a good deal. Check the listing for your own size and colour before buying. If you’re comparing PUMA running shoes under ₹3,000, my ₹2,900 purchase is one real price point, but this article doesn’t compare the Galaxis Pro with other models.

What I confirmed and what is still untested
| Point | What I could confirm | What remains untested |
|---|---|---|
| Packaging | Outer package and box felt a bit loose | Packaging on other orders |
| Build | Mesh upper shown in close-up | How the mesh holds up after months of use |
| Weight | Felt very light | An exact weight in grams |
| Cushioning | Neither too soft nor too hard | Comfort over long runs |
| Sole | Looks good; a little stiff at first | Whether the stiffness changes with use |
| Grip | Outsole shown to the camera | Grip on treadmill, track and wet roads |
| Durability | No assessment from a first look | Foam and outsole wear over time |
Who should consider the PUMA Galaxis Pro
My first impression was that beginners can consider this pair. It felt light and comfortable during the short try-on, although the sole was a little stiff. It also helps a lot if you can catch it at a sale price like the one I got.
Who may want to wait
This first look doesn’t answer questions about long-distance comfort, wet-road grip or trail use. If any of those will decide your purchase, you’ll need more evidence than this short session.
PUMA Galaxis Pro review: my first verdict
My first impression is positive. These are a good pair of shoes, they felt very light and comfortable for the price, and as a beginner you can consider them. The sole was a little stiff, and I couldn’t judge the grip yet.
I paid ₹2,900. The next useful test is regular running, walking and gym use, not another look at the shoe out of the box.
PUMA Galaxis Pro FAQs
Is the PUMA Galaxis Pro good for beginners?
My first impression is that beginners can consider it: the shoes felt light and comfortable for the price. The sole was a little stiff, and I haven’t yet seen whether it softens with use.
Is the PUMA Galaxis Pro worth buying?

Can I use the PUMA Galaxis Pro for walking and the gym?
I plan to use it for running, walking and the gym. The video only shows a short balcony walk, so it doesn’t establish comfort during a full gym session or a run.
How is the grip on the PUMA Galaxis Pro?
I don’t know yet. My first-look session didn’t include running on different surfaces, so I can’t comment on grip.

I bought mine on Amazon India. You can check the listing for the price and availability of your size and colour.
