Performance Summary
The Puma Stewie 3 introduces an interesting drop-in midsole setup, but the traction performance on dust holds the shoe back.

Well-balanced and supportive
Cons
Stiff outsole at the back of the shoe
Dust pickup hinders traction performance
Best Suitable For: Players who don't require much bounciness and excel with low-to-the-ground setups.
Category Performance Ratings
7.3
Traction
Dense, thin multidirectional tread with standard rubber compound. Strong grip on clean courts but dust-sensitive and loses bite.
7.8
Cushion
Firm drop-in midsole with dense foam and a stiff rear outsole. Stable, neutral ride with good step-in comfort but not bouncy.
8.3
Materials
Engineered mesh upper with TPU overlays and padded tongue. Lightweight and durable with solid build quality but limited breathability.
8.5
Support
Raised side walls, TPU lateral reinforcement, and torsional plate. Strong lateral containment and lockdown despite a minimal outrigger.
8.0
Fit
True to size with a snug toe box that eases after a short break-in. Good heel lockdown; wide feet may need half size up.
0%
Outdoor
Dense, closely spaced tread is not suited for outdoor courts. Traction and durability drop quickly outdoors.
small
large
Sizing
Runs true to size for most players. Consider half size up if you have extra wide feet or need more forefoot room.
narrow
wide
Width
Best for narrow to medium widths. Wide footers may feel constricted and often need a half size up.

The drop-in midsole is dense. The bounciness is not there, but it's meant for balance and containment.

I had to break in the cushioning over a few games. The drop-in midsole feels firm to start. It softens up but doesn't become bouncy. This is a neutral setup for sure.

The drop-in midsole feels nice. The rear outsole is stiff and affects some impact protection, though. The forefoot feels comfortable.

The rubber is stiff around the heel, which affects the impact protection. However, I like the drop-in midsole. Step-in comfort and underfoot cushioning are impressive.

I like the TPU reinforcement on the lateral side of the shoe. The upper and tongue are densely padded. It's not too breathable, though. The build quality is out of this world.

The drop-in midsole does have a torsional plate and elevated side walls, which I appreciate. I felt contained on the footbed. I wish there were a more prominent outrigger.
