FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Velocity Nitro 5 is a neutral trainer. If you have severe overpronation or require significant arch support, you may need an orthotic insert.
Can I use these for trail running?
These are optimized for road and pavement. While they have excellent grip, they lack the rock plates and aggressive lugs needed for technical trails.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your weight, running surface, and intensity.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the foam and the structural integrity of the shoe. Please clean by hand only.
Does the nitrogen-injected foam lose its bounce?
While all foams compress over time, NITROFOAM is engineered for high durability and consistent energy return throughout the lifespan of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Feeling instability during runs
Ensure your laces are tightened correctly for a secure lockdown and confirm the size matches your foot arch profile.
Outsole losing traction
Clean the outsole with a soft brush to remove debris and pebbles that may be lodged in the tread pattern.
Upper mesh collecting dust or debris
Gently vacuum or use a dry soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust before wiping with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Puma Velocity Nitro 5 trainers, proper care is essential.
Setup and Fit: Ensure your feet are measured correctly, as a proper fit is crucial for the neutral support design to work as intended.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid putting these shoes in the washing machine or dryer, as high heat can degrade the foam and adhesive.
- Drying: Air dry naturally in a cool, shaded area away from direct sunlight.
- Maintenance: Rotate your shoes with another pair to allow the foam to decompress and the moisture to evaporate between runs.
