Full details

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for neutral runners?
The MagMax Nitro 2 is designed with overpronation in mind due to its stability features and high cushioning. While neutral runners might find the cushioning comfortable, the support structure may not be ideal for their gait. It's best suited for runners who need or appreciate support for overpronation.
What is the heel-to-toe drop, and why is it important?
The heel-to-toe drop is 8mm. This moderate drop helps to create a balance between cushioning and a more natural foot strike, reducing stress on the Achilles tendon compared to very low drops, while providing ample underfoot protection.
How do I clean my PUMA MagMax Nitro shoes?
To clean, use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap to remove dirt. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners. Always air dry them away from direct heat.
Can I use these shoes for walking or daily wear?
Yes, the high level of cushioning makes them very comfortable for walking and daily wear, offering excellent support and shock absorption.
What does 'NITROFOAM™' mean?
NITROFOAM™ is PUMA's advanced foam technology that provides superior responsiveness and cushioning while being lightweight. The 'highest stack' means there is a particularly thick layer of this foam in the shoe.
What is the weight of the shoe?
The PUMA MagMax Nitro running shoes weigh approximately 270g for a UK size 8. This is a moderate weight, balancing cushioning with performance.
How durable is the PUMAGRIP outsole?
PUMAGRIP is engineered for durable traction across a variety of surfaces, providing reliable grip over many miles.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. Try lacing them differently to adjust pressure points. Wear with appropriate running socks.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the PUMAGRIP offers good traction, extreme conditions may reduce grip. Ensure shoe treads are clear of debris. Consider specialized trail shoes for very challenging terrain.
Reduced cushioning over time
Foam cushioning naturally compresses with use. To prolong life, avoid exposing shoes to excessive heat and clean them regularly.
Feet feel hot or sweaty
The engineered mesh provides breathability, but optimal comfort depends on sock choice. Use moisture-wicking running socks.
