FAQs

What distances are these spikes best suited for?

The Puma evoSpeed Sprint Nitro 2 is specifically engineered and optimized for short-distance sprint events, primarily 100m and 200m.

Are the spike pins replaceable?

No, the Puma evoSpeed Sprint Nitro 2 features 8 lightweight permanent spike pins. They are designed to be integral to the aggressive sprint plate for ultimate traction and propulsion.

Can I use these spikes on any track surface?

While they might function on various synthetic tracks, these spikes are specifically recommended for MONDO-type track surfaces to achieve optimal performance, grip, and energy return.

How should I clean my sprint spikes?

After use, brush off any loose dirt or debris. Wipe the upper with a damp cloth. Do not machine wash or use harsh detergents. Air dry them away from direct heat.

Do I need to break in these spikes?

It is recommended to wear them for a few short warm-ups or light sprint drills before a full race or intense training session. This allows the shoes to adapt slightly to your foot.

How do the PWRPLATE and NITROFOAM technologies benefit me?

The PWRPLATE is a carbon fiber plate that provides exceptional energy return and propulsion, while NITROFOAM Elite is a lightweight, responsive cushioning foam in the forefoot, working together to enhance speed and rebound.

Troubleshooting

Spikes feel slippery on the track

Ensure the track surface is clean and dry. These spikes are optimized for MONDO-type tracks; performance may vary on other surfaces or in adverse conditions. If the issue persists, inspect spike pins for any unusual wear or damage.

Discomfort or rubbing during sprints

Check your sock choice; a thin, moisture-wicking sock is often best. Ensure the laces are snug but not overtightened. If the spikes are new, wear them for a few short, light sessions to allow for a minor break-in period. Improper sizing can also cause discomfort, so verify your fit.

Reduced spring or propulsion

Confirm your lacing provides a secure lockdown, which is crucial for maximizing the energy return from the PWRPLATE. Ensure your running form is conducive to sprinting, staying on your toes to utilize the curved last and forefoot cushioning effectively. Over time, all performance footwear experiences material compression, but this should not be significant for a new pair.

Upper material feels too tight or restrictive

The ULTRAWEAVE upper is designed for a snug, secure fit. If it feels excessively tight, ensure you have the correct size. The material will conform slightly over a few wears. Try adjusting the lacing to relieve pressure points without compromising lockdown.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the lifespan and performance of your Puma evoSpeed Sprint Nitro 2, follow these guidelines.

Initial Setup

  1. Lacing: Ensure your spikes are laced securely. Use a lacing technique that provides a snug fit without cutting off circulation. A good lacing method prevents foot slippage inside the shoe during powerful sprints.
  2. Break-in: Although modern spikes require less break-in than older models, it's recommended to wear them for a few short warm-ups or light sprint drills before a full race. This allows the shoe to conform slightly to your foot and helps you get accustomed to the feel.

Compatibility

These spikes are Recommended for MONDO type track surfaces. While they may perform on other synthetic tracks, their design and spike configuration are optimized for the specific characteristics of MONDO tracks, offering the best grip and energy return.

Product Care

  • Cleaning: After each use, especially if the track is dirty or wet, gently brush off any mud or debris from the outsole and spike plate. Use a damp cloth to wipe down the upper. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, which can damage the materials.
  • Drying: If your spikes get wet, stuff them lightly with newspaper and allow them to air dry at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can degrade the materials and adhesives.
  • Storage: Store your spikes in a cool, dry place, ideally in a breathable shoe bag, to prevent odor and material degradation. Keep them away from extreme temperatures.
  • Spike Inspection: Although the spike pins are permanent, regularly inspect them for wear or damage. While not replaceable, keeping them clean ensures optimal traction.
