FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the NITRO foam?
The NITRO foam provides a combination of excellent cushioning to absorb impact and high energy return to propel you forward, enhancing running efficiency and comfort.
Are these trainers suitable for walking or casual use?
While comfortable, their design is optimized for running performance. For extensive walking or casual wear, other shoe types might offer more tailored support and durability.
How should I determine the correct UK size?
Refer to the PUMA sizing chart available on their official website or consult the product's size guide. Ensure your heel is snug and there is adequate toe room.
Can I use these shoes for trail running?
The outsole provides good traction, but these shoes are primarily designed for road and track running. For technical trails, a shoe with more aggressive lugs and protective features is recommended.
How do I clean mud or dirt off the trainers?
Use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap and cool water. Avoid machine washing. Ensure they air dry completely.
What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?
For optimal performance, it's generally recommended to replace running shoes after 300-500 miles, depending on individual usage, weight, and running surface.
Is this shoe suitable for pronation control?
The Deviate NITRO is a neutral running shoe, designed for runners with a neutral gait. It does not offer specific features for overpronation or supination control.
Troubleshooting
Slightly stiff on first wear
This is normal for performance footwear. Wear them for short durations initially to break them in, gradually increasing mileage.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The NITRO foam is designed for longevity, but performance may subtly decrease after extensive mileage. Consider replacement after 300-500 miles of use, depending on running style and terrain.
Traction feels less effective on wet surfaces
While designed for good traction, extremely wet conditions can reduce grip. Clean the outsole regularly to remove any debris that might impede traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Designed primarily for road running and track workouts. While the outsole offers good traction, they are not intended for technical trail running or extreme off-road conditions.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: To clean, use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and cool water solution. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing, as this can damage the materials.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can warp the shape or degrade the foam.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to maintain their shape when not in use.
