FAQs

What type of runner is the Deviate NITRO 3 best suited for?

These trainers are ideal for adult female runners with a neutral gait who run primarily on asphalt surfaces and are looking for a responsive shoe for everyday training and faster workouts.

What is the main benefit of the PWRPLATE technology?

The PWRPLATE is a carbon fiber plate that enhances propulsion, providing a snappier feel and helping to improve running efficiency.

How does the NITRO™ foam contribute to the shoe's performance?

NITRO™ foam is lightweight and highly responsive, offering excellent cushioning and energy return to make your runs feel faster and more comfortable.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

While they can handle very light, dry trails, they are optimized for asphalt. The outsole tread is designed for road grip, and trail debris could potentially cause excessive wear or affect performance on uneven terrain.

What is the weight and drop of the shoe?

The shoe weighs approximately 220g (for a size 42) and features a 10 mm heel-to-toe drop.

How should I clean my Deviate NITRO 3 trainers?

Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals.

Are these shoes good for marathon racing?

While they offer excellent propulsion for training, their primary design is for everyday training. For long-distance racing, PUMA may offer more specialized racing flats depending on your needs.

Troubleshooting

Slightly stiff feel on first wear

This is normal for shoes with advanced plates. Wear them for short runs or around the house to break them in. The foam and plate will become more flexible with use.

Mud or debris stuck in outsole treads

Use a stiff brush or a jet of water to dislodge any packed debris. Ensure the shoes are dry before storing to prevent mold or odor.

Reduced responsiveness over time

Ensure the shoes are kept clean and dry. Midsole foam can lose some of its properties if consistently exposed to extreme heat or moisture. Check for any visible wear and tear on the outsole or midsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to use straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. It is recommended to try them on before your first run to confirm fit.

Compatibility: The Deviate NITRO 3 is specifically designed for asphalt surfaces. While they can be used on treadmills or well-maintained, dry trails, their optimal performance and durability are on roads.

Care: To maintain the integrity and lifespan of your trainers:

  1. Cleaning: After runs, brush off loose dirt. For a deeper clean, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or prolonged sunlight, which can cause materials to degrade.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid leaving them in damp or overly humid conditions.
