FAQs

Are the PUMA Deviate NITRO 4 suitable for beginners?

Yes, the neutral support and good cushioning make them suitable for beginners who have a neutral gait. However, runners who overpronate may need a shoe with more stability.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The heel-to-toe drop is 8mm, which is a moderate drop suitable for a wide range of runners.

How much cushioning do these shoes offer?

They feature maximum cushioning with a stack height of 38mm in the heel and 30mm in the forefoot, providing a plush and comfortable ride.

Can I use these shoes for daily training as well as racing?

Yes, the combination of cushioning and responsiveness makes them versatile enough for both daily training runs and competitive race efforts.

What does 'NITROFOAM' mean?

NITROFOAM is PUMA's advanced, lightweight foam technology that provides exceptional responsiveness and cushioning while being significantly lighter than traditional foams.

How do I know if I have a neutral pronation?

Neutral pronation means your foot rolls inward slightly upon landing to absorb shock. If you're unsure, consult a running specialist or observe wear patterns on old shoes – even wear on the ball of the foot and a slight wear on the outside heel often indicates a neutral gait.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The PUMA Deviate NITRO 4 weighs approximately 250g for a UK size 8, making it a lightweight option for performance running.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring an even distribution of pressure. If the issue persists, consider if the size is correct or if the lacing technique needs adjustment for your foot shape.

Reduced energy return over time

The foams and plate are designed for longevity, but performance may gradually decrease with very high mileage. Ensure the shoes are clean and dry, as excessive moisture can impact material performance. Regularly inspect for wear on the outsole and midsole.

Slipping on wet surfaces

While the PUMAGRIP outsole offers multi-surface traction, extreme wet conditions can challenge any outsole. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris. For very slick conditions, proceed with caution.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional energy return for faster running.
  • Lightweight construction enhances agility.
  • Durable PUMAGRIP outsole offers great traction.
  • Breathable upper keeps feet comfortable.
  • Made with recycled materials for sustainability.

Cons

  • Not suitable for runners requiring pronation control.
  • Maximum cushioning might feel less responsive for some runners.
  • Carbon plate is optimized for speed, potentially less ideal for very slow recovery runs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear running shoes. Ensure you select the correct UK size for a proper fit. The standard lacing system allows for adjustable tightness across the foot.

Compatibility: Designed for neutral pronation, these shoes are best suited for runners whose feet roll inward naturally and do not require motion control features. They are compatible with most standard running socks.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cool water with a cloth or soft brush. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can degrade the foam and adhesives.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid prolonged compression, such as stacking heavy items on top of them.
