Product Information

Full details

The Puma Deviate NITRO™ 3 trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking enhanced propulsion for everyday training runs. Featuring PWRPLATE technology and NITRO™ foam, they offer a responsive and snappy ride that infuses speed into every stride. A potential caveat is their recommendation for neutral pronators, which may not suit all foot types. Key features include an engineered mesh upper made with at least 20% recycled materials, advanced NITROFOAM™ for superior cushioning, and a PWRPLATE carbon fibre plate for stability and energy transfer.

FAQs

Are the Puma Deviate NITRO 3 suitable for marathon running?

Yes, the combination of NITROFOAM™ cushioning and PWRPLATE propulsion makes them a strong contender for marathon distances, especially for neutral runners looking for a responsive shoe.

Can I wear these for gym workouts?

While they offer good cushioning, their primary design is for running. For gym workouts, especially those involving lateral movements, dedicated cross-training shoes might offer better stability.

What is the main benefit of the PWRPLATE?

The PWRPLATE is a carbon fibre plate designed to stabilize the midsole and maximize energy transfer, resulting in a more propulsive and efficient toe-off.

How does NITROFOAM™ differ from traditional EVA foam?

NITROFOAM™ is a nitrogen-infused foam that is lighter, more responsive, and offers better cushioning compared to traditional EVA foams, providing a 'snappier' ride.

What does 'neutral pronators' mean?

Neutral pronators are runners whose feet roll inward a healthy amount upon landing, distributing impact effectively. The Deviate NITRO 3 is designed to support this natural foot motion.

How much recycled material is used in the upper?

The upper of the shoes is made with at least 20% recycled materials, contributing to a more sustainable product.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The heel-to-toe drop is 10mm, providing a balanced feel between cushioning in the heel and responsiveness in the forefoot.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Adjust the lacing to find a more comfortable fit. Ensure you have the correct size; consider trying a different size if discomfort persists.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time.

This can be a sign of wear. While NITROFOAM™ is durable, its properties may decrease after extensive mileage. Inspect the outsole for wear and consider replacement if performance has significantly degraded.

Upper mesh feels restrictive.

Ensure laces are not overtightened. The engineered mesh should offer a snug but breathable fit; if it feels too tight, it might indicate an incorrect size or width.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly responsive cushioning from NITROFOAM™.
  • Enhanced energy return and stability due to the PWRPLATE.
  • Lightweight design for a faster feel.
  • Breathable and comfortable engineered mesh upper.
  • Sustainable materials incorporated into the upper.

Cons

  • Best suited for neutral pronators, may not be ideal for overpronators.
  • Specific performance benefits may be less pronounced for heavier runners.
  • Durability of the carbon plate over very high mileage is a consideration.
  • High stack height might feel less stable for runners preferring a minimalist feel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. Simply ensure you have the correct size for a comfortable fit. The lacing system allows for adjustment to personal preference.

Compatibility: The Deviate NITRO™ 3 is designed for running, specifically for neutral pronators. It is compatible with most running surfaces, including roads, tracks, and light trails.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the shoes with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution, and allow them to air dry completely. Avoid machine washing or direct heat.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and dry them at room temperature. Never use a dryer or direct heat source.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are not compressed or deformed during storage.
