Full details
The Puma Deviate NITRO™ 3 trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking enhanced propulsion and a responsive feel for their everyday training runs. Featuring advanced NITRO™ foam for superior cushioning and PWRPLATE technology for energy transfer, these trainers aim to make every stride feel faster. A key consideration is their suitability primarily for neutral pronators, and while the upper uses recycled materials, the overall focus is on performance.

FAQs
Are the Puma Deviate NITRO 3 suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the combination of NITROFOAM™ cushioning and PWRPLATE technology makes them suitable for marathon distances, especially for neutral pronators who benefit from responsive energy return.
Can I use these trainers for trail running?
They are best suited for road running and can handle light, well-maintained trails. For technical or muddy trails, a shoe with more aggressive traction and protection would be recommended.
What does 'neutral pronator' mean?
Neutral pronation describes a running gait where your foot rolls inward a normal amount after landing, efficiently distributing impact. These shoes are designed to support that natural motion.
How do I clean the engineered mesh upper?
Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For stains, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap and water, then wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth. Always air dry.
What is the weight of the Puma Deviate Nitro 3?
The trainers weigh approximately 270g for a UK size 8.
Does the PWRPLATE technology require a break-in period?
While the shoes offer comfort from the start, the PWRPLATE's responsiveness can become more noticeable as the midsole foam adapts to your gait over a few runs.
What is the heel-to-toe drop?
The heel-to-toe drop is 10mm, providing a balanced feel between the heel and forefoot.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try loosening the laces and re-tying them to allow for a more personalized fit. The engineered mesh upper may require a few runs to break in.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time
The NITROFOAM™ may naturally compress with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are clean and that there are no debris lodged in the sole. For optimal performance, consider rotating with another pair of shoes for daily runs.
Upper material feels abrasive
This could be due to the break-in period or an improper fit. Ensure socks are worn during runs. If the issue persists after several runs, check the lacing for uneven pressure points.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Puma Deviate NITRO 3 trainers are ready to wear right out of the box. Ensure you have the correct UK size for optimal fit and comfort.
Compatibility: These trainers are designed for neutral pronators. They are best suited for road running and moderate trail surfaces. Avoid using them for activities that could stress the plate or upper in unintended ways.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and mud. For stubborn stains, a mild soap can be used sparingly. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water.

- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
