Product Information
Full details
The Puma Deviate Nitro 2 is a high-performance trainer engineered for adult male runners seeking a blend of responsiveness and stability for various distances. Featuring elite-grade foam technology and a carbon-composite plate, it excels at energy return, though its specialized construction may require a short adjustment period for runners used to traditional, non-plated footwear.

FAQs
Is the Deviate Nitro 2 a stability shoe?
It is a neutral performance trainer with inherent stability features, such as an improved heel hold, but it does not contain specific medial posts for overpronation correction.
Can I use these for racing?
Yes, the Deviate Nitro 2 is well-suited for racing, particularly for half-marathon to marathon distances where energy efficiency is critical.
How long should the outsole last?
While mileage varies based on surface and gait, the PUMAGRIP ATR is designed for high durability and generally provides long-lasting performance for daily training.
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK sizing for adult male trainers.
Is the upper material waterproof?
No, the engineered mesh is designed for maximum breathability and will not keep feet dry in heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of stiffness in the arch
This is often due to the PWR-PLATE. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks and gradually increase the distance to allow your foot muscles to adapt.
Slippage in the heel area
Try a 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing technique to secure the ankle more firmly against the heel collar.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Exceptional energy return from the Nitro Elite foam
- Lightweight platform reduces fatigue over long distances
- Durable traction on multiple road surfaces
- Improved upper provides a locked-in, secure fit
Cons
- The propulsion from the plate may take time to adapt to
- Primarily optimized for road use rather than technical trails
- Design aesthetic is performance-focused, which may not suit casual wear for all users
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, confirm your UK shoe size (this model is available in a wide range of sizes including 7 to 12). When first wearing these, allow for a few shorter break-in runs to let the plate and foam adapt to your gait.
Care Instructions:
- Air dry the shoes naturally in a cool, shaded place after running in wet conditions.
- Avoid machine washing; instead, spot clean with a soft brush and mild soap.
- Remove the insole after exceptionally muddy runs to allow for thorough drying of the interior.
- Inspect the PUMAGRIP ATR rubber periodically to ensure the tread remains clear of debris.
