FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the NITRO™ foam?
NITRO™ foam provides superior responsiveness and cushioning in a lightweight package, delivering maximum energy return for a faster, more energetic run.
What is the role of the PWRPLATE?
The PWRPLATE is a carbon fibre plate engineered to stabilize the midsole and maximize energy transfer from footstrike to toe-off, enhancing propulsion.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the combination of cushioning and responsiveness makes them suitable for marathon training and racing, especially for runners seeking a performance edge.
Can I use these shoes for everyday casual wear?
While comfortable, their design is optimized for performance running. For everyday wear, you might consider less performance-oriented shoes to preserve the advanced technology.
How does the recycled material in the upper affect performance?
The recycled materials are incorporated into the upper construction without compromising the shoe's fit, breathability, or support, while contributing to sustainability.
What foot strike patterns are these shoes best for?
The Deviate NITRO™ 3 is optimized for a wide range of foot strikes and patterns, aiming to provide a beneficial experience for most runners.
How do I clean my Deviate Nitro 3 trainers?
Clean them with a mild soap and cold water using a soft brush or cloth. Avoid machine washing and always air dry away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size and width. Try lacing the shoes differently to adjust pressure points. Consider using thinner socks if needed.
Reduced responsiveness over time
Ensure the shoes are clean and free from debris that might affect the midsole or plate. Check for any visible damage to the sole or upper.
Slipping sensation during runs
Adjust the lacing to achieve a more secure fit around the heel and midfoot. Ensure the laces are tied securely. Check if the outsole grip has diminished due to wear.
Upper material feels stiff
This is normal for newer shoes with advanced materials. Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow them to break in. Gentle flexing of the shoe can also help.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These are ready-to-wear running shoes. Ensure they fit snugly but comfortably before your first run. No special setup is required.
Compatibility: Optimized for road running, track workouts, and racing. They are compatible with most running socks. Ensure your desired size provides adequate room in the toe box.
Care:
- Cleaning: After runs, remove loose dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cold water with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.
- Drying: Air dry shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
