FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the PWRPLATE?

The PWRPLATE is a carbon fibre plate designed to stabilize the midsole and maximize energy transfer, leading to a more efficient and propulsive stride.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

Yes, the combination of NITROFOAM™ cushioning and the PWRPLATE makes them suitable for marathon training and racing, offering both comfort and energy return.

What does the 10mm drop mean for my run?

A 10mm drop means there is a 10mm difference in height between the heel and the forefoot. This promotes a natural transition from heel strike to toe-off for many runners.

How much recycled material is used in the upper?

The upper is crafted with at least 20% recycled materials, contributing to a more sustainable product.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

No, these shoes are designed for road running and track use. They lack the specific traction and protection needed for trail surfaces.

How do I clean my Deviate Nitro 3 trainers?

Clean them with a soft brush and a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing and always air dry away from direct heat.

What is the weight of a single shoe?

A single shoe weighs approximately 270g, making them a lightweight option for performance running.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too stiff on first wear

The PWRPLATE and NITROFOAM™ may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter runs initially and gradually increase mileage.

Laces are difficult to keep tied

Ensure you are using a secure lacing technique, such as a double knot. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or too smooth.

Reduced responsiveness over time

Check for excessive wear on the outsole or midsole. Ensure the shoes have been properly cared for and not exposed to extreme temperatures.

Discomfort in the arch area

Verify the shoe size and fit. If the discomfort persists, consider using aftermarket insoles that offer different arch support, though this may affect the shoe's intended performance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent energy return due to NITROFOAM™ and PWRPLATE.
  • Lightweight construction for enhanced speed.
  • Versatile performance for training and racing.
  • Responsive cushioning provides comfort during long runs.
  • Sustainable materials used in the upper construction.

Cons

  • May feel too structured for runners preferring a completely minimalist shoe.
  • The PWRPLATE might require an adjustment period for some runners.
  • Durability of the carbon plate under extreme conditions is a long-term consideration.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Puma Deviate Nitro 3 trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure they fit correctly before your first run; lace them up to your preferred comfort level, allowing for natural foot expansion during exercise.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for road running and track use. They are compatible with most running apparel and socks. They are not designed for trail running or activities requiring significant lateral support.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After runs, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in hot cars or direct sunlight for extended periods.
  4. Rotation: For optimal lifespan and performance, consider rotating these shoes with another pair, allowing them to fully dry and recover between runs.
