FAQs

Are the Deviate Nitro™ 3 suitable for marathon running?

While the NITRO™ foam offers good cushioning, the primary design focus is on propulsion and speed for everyday training. For very long marathons where maximum plushness is desired, a more cushioned shoe might be preferred. However, many runners find them suitable for marathon distances depending on their preference for responsiveness.

What is the main difference between the Deviate Nitro™ 3 and previous models?

The Deviate Nitro™ 3 typically features refinements in the foam compound, plate geometry, or upper construction to enhance performance, responsiveness, and fit based on user feedback and technological advancements.

Can I use these shoes for gym workouts?

These trainers are optimized for running. While they can be used for light gym activities, they are not specifically designed for lateral movements or heavy lifting, which may require different types of footwear.

How do I know if I have the right size?

There should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the midfoot should be snug but not constricting.

What does 'Gold Moon' refer to in the colorway?

'Gold Moon' is the name of the specific colorway, referring to the aesthetic appearance of the shoe, often incorporating golden hues with a complementary base color like white or silver.

Is the PWRPLATE made of carbon fiber?

Yes, the PWRPLATE is described as a carbon-infused plate, designed to provide stiffness and enhance energy return for a propulsive feel.

How durable is the outsole?

The outsole is constructed with durable rubber compounds to withstand regular running use and provide consistent traction. However, longevity will depend on running surface, frequency, and individual gait.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even pressure distribution. If the issue persists, consider if the size is correct or if the shoe requires a break-in period.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

Be cautious when running on wet pavement or trails. The outsole is designed for general traction; for extremely slippery conditions, alternative footwear might be necessary.

Discomfort in the arch area

This could be due to the PWRPLATE. Allow for a break-in period of 10-15 miles. If discomfort continues, consult with a running shoe specialist about potential alternatives or insoles.

Foam feels too firm

NITRO™ foam is designed for responsiveness. The firmness may be more noticeable in colder temperatures. Running in the shoes will help break them in and activate the foam's properties.
