FAQs
What type of runner is the MagMax NITRO™ best for?
These shoes are ideal for adult female runners with a neutral gait who primarily run on asphalt surfaces for training and recovery.
How does the NITROFOAM™ technology benefit my run?
NITROFOAM™ provides advanced cushioning and a responsive feel, offering energy return with every stride to enhance comfort and reduce fatigue on hard surfaces.
Can I use these shoes for trail running?
No, the MagMax NITRO™ is specifically designed for asphalt and hard surfaces. The PUMAGRIP outsole and shoe construction are not optimized for the demands of trail running.
What is the heel-to-toe drop on these shoes?
The shoes have an 8mm heel-to-toe drop, offering a balanced feel that suits many runners.
How do I clean my MagMax NITRO™ shoes?
Clean them with a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove dirt. Avoid machine washing and harsh detergents. Always air dry away from direct heat.
What is the approximate weight of these shoes?
The approximate weight is 300g for a men's size 42. Please note that weight can vary slightly depending on the specific size.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
Yes, they are suitable for marathon training, especially for runners who prioritize comfort and cushioning on asphalt for their long runs and recovery days.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or cause discomfort.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try wearing them with different types of running socks. Loosen the laces and re-tie them to allow for a better fit, ensuring they are snug but not constricting.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time.
The NITROFOAM™ cushioning may naturally decrease over extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not exposed to extreme heat during drying, which can degrade the foam. Consider replacing the shoes after significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles).
Slipping on wet surfaces.
While PUMAGRIP offers good traction, extremely wet or slick surfaces can still pose a risk. Ensure the outsole is free from debris. For very wet conditions, exercise caution and reduce speed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.
Compatibility: The MagMax NITRO™ is designed for neutral runners and is best suited for asphalt or hard, even surfaces. They are compatible with most running attire.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and cushioning technology.

- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid cramming them into tight spaces where they could be deformed.
