Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a more relaxed fit. If the issue persists, check if the size is correct for your foot. Consider alternative lacing techniques for pressure relief.
Reduced cushioning after some use
The NITROFOAM™ midsole is designed for durability, but cushioning can feel different as the shoe breaks in. Ensure you are not exceeding the intended use for daily training. For significant loss of cushioning, it may be time to consider replacement.
Poor traction on wet surfaces
While designed for asphalt, traction can be reduced on very wet or slick surfaces. Run with caution and consider the shoe's limitations in adverse weather conditions.
Upper material feels restrictive
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly. If discomfort persists, the fit might not be suitable for your foot shape. Consult the size guide carefully.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Puma Velocity NITRO 4 Trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. As with any new running shoe, a short break-in period on shorter runs is recommended.
Compatibility: These trainers are specifically designed for neutral runners and are best suited for asphalt and firm, man-made running surfaces. They are not recommended for trail running or for individuals requiring significant motion control or pronation support.
Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your trainers:
- Cleaning: After runs, brush off any loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap with cool water and a soft brush. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid leaving them in damp conditions or direct sunlight for extended periods.
