FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for high-mileage marathon training?
The Electrify Nitro 5 is best suited for daily training and mid-distance runs. For extreme marathons, some users may prefer more specialized long-distance models.
Are these true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult UK sizing, but it is always recommended to compare against your current running shoe size.
Can I use these for trail running?
These trainers are primarily designed for road and gym surfaces; the tread pattern may not provide sufficient grip on loose or technical trails.
How long will the cushioning last?
Typically, the foam performance remains effective for 300 to 500 miles, depending on the intensity of use and the surface type.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, making it easy to air them out or replace them with custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of insufficient arch support
Consider using a supportive third-party insole if you have specific biomechanical needs.
Accumulated dirt in tread
Use a stiff-bristled brush to remove debris from the outsole channels to maintain traction.
Slippage at the heel
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to secure the heel lock more effectively.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Puma Electrify Nitro 5 trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Check: Always wear your intended running socks when trying on the trainers to ensure the sizing is correct.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after use. If necessary, clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a washing machine.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can degrade the foam integrity.
- Rotation: Allow the cushioning foam 24 hours to recover its shape between heavy usage days to extend the life of the shoe.
