Exclusive: Olivier Giroud Discusses PUMA
PUMA and Olivier Giroud seem to be an ideal match. On the cusp of asserting himself as Arsenal's new goal-hero, the Frenchman has worn PUMA since his earliest days as a professional footballer.
After signing an initial contract with the sports lifestyle brand in 2009, Giroud's rise to the Premier League has been met with a long-term renewal of his endorsement deal. Last season's Ligue 1 top goal scorer will continue to wear PUMA football boots for the foreseeable future. 
We recently caught up with the Arsenal striker to chat about his relationship with PUMA and his move to the Premier League. PUMA boots have always been a good fit for me and I have a good relationship with the people who work here. PUMA is a brand that is very respectful and follows a player during all of his career.
Formerly of French sides Tours and Montpellier, Giroud has been wearing PUMA speed boots since 2009. I think I will always continue with PUMA because I have worn the boots since the beginning of my career. I feel great in PUMA boots. 
Now wearing the PUMA evoSPEED for Arsenal and France, Giroud is hoping to replicate his Ligue 1 goal-scoring form in the boots. I think the PUMA evoSPEED is a very good boot for a striker. They are light and give me confidence on the pitch. I feel very good wearing these boots and have always scored goals wearing PUMA.
The Arsenal man is just one of Europe's top strikers wearing the PUMA evoSPEED. Mario Gomez, Sergio Aguero and Radamel Falcao headline a formidable line-up. They are a very good strikers boot and I think Aguero and Falcao would agree! 
Head of PUMA global sports marketing Christian Voigt commented, Olivier Giroud is a gifted and intelligent striker and a wonderful player to have in our global player portfolio. We are delighted about his progress, especially as he's such a likeable person and we've enjoyed working with him these past few years.
