Product Information

Full details

The PUMA Deviate Nitro™ 3 trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking enhanced propulsion and speed in their daily training and speed training sessions, particularly on asphalt surfaces. These neutral shoes offer a responsive, snappy ride thanks to PWRPLATE technology and NITRO™ foam, infusing speed into every stride. A key consideration is their specific focus on performance, which might mean a firmer feel compared to maximally cushioned shoes.

FAQs

What is the main benefit of the PWRPLATE technology?

The PWRPLATE, made of carbon fiber, is designed to stabilize the midsole and maximize energy transfer, contributing to a more propulsive and faster stride.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon racing?

While excellent for speed training and tempo runs, their primary design is for everyday training. For ultra-marathons or extremely long races, runners might prefer a shoe with even more cushioning.

What is the weight of the PUMA Deviate Nitro™ 3 trainers?

The trainers weigh approximately 270g, making them a lightweight option for performance-oriented runs.

Can these trainers be used by runners with a neutral gait?

Yes, these are neutral shoes designed to accommodate a neutral foot strike.

What is the difference between NITRO™ foam and NITROFOAM™?

NITRO™ foam is the general term for PUMA's advanced cushioning technology, providing a lightweight and responsive feel. NITROFOAM™ is a specific implementation of this technology within the midsole.

How does the 10mm drop affect the running experience?

A 10mm drop typically promotes a balanced feel between the heel and forefoot, suitable for a wide range of runners and helping to facilitate a natural stride.

What surfaces are these shoes best suited for?

These trainers are optimized for asphalt and other firm, even surfaces like roads and prepared running tracks.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure laces are loosened before putting on the shoes. Try different lacing techniques to adjust the fit across the midfoot and forefoot. Confirm the correct size has been purchased.

Reduced responsiveness over time

Check for excessive wear on the outsole and midsole. Clean the shoes regularly as dirt can affect cushioning performance. Running surface and intensity can also impact longevity.

Discomfort on longer runs

Verify the shoe size is appropriate and allows for foot swelling. Consider if your foot strike is compatible with the shoe's geometry. Break in the shoes gradually over several runs.
