Product Information
Full details
The Puma MagMax Nitro 2 is a high-performance stability trainer designed for adult male runners who prioritize maximum cushioning and energy return during long-distance road runs. By utilizing the advanced, ultra-lightweight NITROFOAM technology, this shoe delivers exceptional comfort for high-mileage training; however, its substantial stack height may feel less agile for runners accustomed to lower-profile, minimalist racing flats.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for speed workouts?
While the foam is reactive, the MagMax Nitro 2 is optimized for distance and comfort rather than high-intensity speed work or track racing.
What is the heel-to-toe drop of the MagMax Nitro 2?
This model features an 8 mm drop, which is standard for balanced support during long runs.
Can I use these for trail running?
These trainers are designed for asphalt and paved road surfaces. They are not recommended for technical or uneven trails.
How should I clean the shoes?
Wipe with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not machine wash or put them in the dryer.
Are these true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, but we recommend trying them on with your preferred running socks to ensure a proper fit.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping inside the shoe
Ensure the laces are tensioned correctly using the eyelets to lock the heel in place.
Midsole foam feels less responsive after many miles
Foam compression is natural over time; rotate the shoes to allow the material to recover, or consider retirement if you have surpassed 400-500 miles.
Outer sole shows premature wear
Check your running gait for heavy heel-striking or toe-dragging, and ensure you are primarily using these on paved surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your MagMax Nitro 2 trainers, it is essential to allow the foam to decompress between runs, ideally rotating them with another pair if you train daily. When cleaning, avoid machine washing; instead, use a soft cloth with mild soap and cold water to wipe away dirt. Ensure the shoes air-dry in a cool, ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can degrade the performance properties of the NITROFOAM. Check the outsole periodically for debris lodged in the tread to maintain optimal traction.
