EVOLUTION is how Puma keep things interesting. Standing still doesn't keep you ahead of the game, so Puma's new collection for 2009 takes a dramatic step forward with unique high impact cosmetics and a dynamic new profile loaded with innovative features.
With 20/20 in mind, the brief to Puma's batmaker was to develop a completely new bat profile that takes balance and lightweight pick-up to new levels.

The result is a highly technical contoured blade with a powerful rigid spine and high impact 'power toe' for punchy field splitting shots - supreme balance with maximum driving power. 


As ever Puma takes the lead with a unique offering every bit as modern as the new generation of high performance players they design their product for.


In 2009 Puma‘s cricket collection is 100% PVC free. This represents a huge leap forward in product development and Puma's environmental responsibility. The benefits are great; product is of a much higher quality and weight is significantly reduced.

Not a fan of the shape, saw it in the summer when they were thinking of it being the Ballistic.

No, the Evolution has a scoop all around the spine that is lower than the edges.

the profile resembles that of the Vendetta. The vendetta too has scoops that go a bit below the level of the edges. But the Evolution has a steeper spine.

Whois making the bats for puma?
