FAQs
What type of runner is the Deviate NITRO 3 best suited for?
The Deviate NITRO 3 is recommended for neutral pronators who are looking for a responsive and cushioned trainer for everyday running and tempo efforts.
How does the PWRPLATE technology benefit my run?
The PWRPLATE is a carbon fibre plate engineered to stabilize the midsole and maximize energy transfer, providing a more propulsive and efficient toe-off with each stride.
Is the upper material durable?
The engineered mesh upper is designed for breathability and a comfortable fit. It incorporates at least 20% recycled materials, offering a balance of performance and sustainability.
What is the main difference between NITROFOAM™ and traditional EVA foam?
NITROFOAM™ is a nitrogen-injected foam that provides superior responsiveness and cushioning in a lightweight package compared to traditional EVA foam.
How should I clean my Deviate NITRO 3 trainers?
Clean with a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents to preserve the shoe's integrity and performance.
What is the weight and heel-to-toe drop of these shoes?
The shoes weigh approximately 270g (for a UK size 8) and have a heel-to-toe drop of 10mm.
Can I use these shoes for marathon racing?
While they offer a propulsive ride suitable for faster runs, they are primarily designed as daily trainers. For dedicated marathon racing, Puma may offer more specialized racing models.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff initially.
The PWRPLATE and NITROFOAM™ may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter runs initially and gradually increase mileage as the shoe adapts to your foot.
Upper feels loose or not supportive enough.
Adjust the lacing to ensure a secure midfoot lockdown. Try different lacing techniques to find what works best for your foot shape.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time.
This can be a sign of wear. The NITROFOAM™ will naturally compress over many miles. Ensure the shoes are being used for their intended purpose and not on abrasive surfaces which can accelerate wear.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Highly responsive cushioning for a fast feel.
- Propulsive ride due to PWRPLATE technology.
- Lightweight construction reduces fatigue.
- Breathable upper enhances comfort.
- Uses recycled materials in the upper for sustainability.
Cons
- Best suited for neutral pronators, may not be ideal for overpronators.
- Carbon plate might be too aggressive for very slow or recovery runs for some users.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you tie the laces to a comfortable and secure fit, accommodating your foot shape and preferred tightness.
Compatibility: The Deviate NITRO 3 is recommended for neutral pronators. It is designed for road running and general training.
Care:
- Cleaning: After runs, use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and mud from the outsole and upper. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing, which can damage the materials and construction.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes naturally. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can degrade the foam and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures. Rotating with another pair of shoes can also help extend their lifespan and maintain their performance characteristics.
