FAQs

What is the main benefit of NITROFOAM™ Elite?

NITROFOAM™ Elite is PUMA's premium performance foam technology, delivering exceptional responsiveness and a lightweight feel for enhanced speed and comfort.

How does the PWRPLATE enhance performance?

The carbon fibre PWRPLATE is engineered to maximize energy transfer with each stride, providing a propulsive and efficient ride that helps you run faster.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

Yes, the combination of max cushioning, responsive foam, and propulsive plate makes them highly suitable for marathon distances and other long-distance races.

What type of pronation is recommended for this shoe?

These trainers are designed for neutral pronation, meaning they are best suited for runners whose feet do not excessively roll inward or outward.

How do I clean my Deviate NITRO Elite 4 trainers?

Spot clean using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.

What is the heel-to-toe drop of these shoes?

The heel-to-toe drop is 8mm, which is a common and versatile drop that balances cushioning and responsiveness.

Can I use these trainers for everyday casual wear?

While comfortable, they are engineered for performance running. For everyday casual wear, consider shoes with less aggressive performance features.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing system. For tightness, loosen the laces, especially around the midfoot. For looseness, tighten the laces, focusing on a secure fit over the instep and ankle.

Reduced responsiveness after several uses

Ensure the shoes are clean and dry. Excessive dirt or moisture can impact foam performance. Allow the shoes to air dry completely after runs.

Slipping on wet surfaces

The PUMAGRIP outsole provides good traction, but all rubber compounds can have limitations on extremely wet or slick surfaces. Exercise caution and consider your running environment.

  • Durable outsole for reliable traction
  • Secure fit with PWRTAPE technology

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they are the correct size and fit snugly but comfortably before your first run. Lacing them appropriately will enhance the lockdown provided by the PWRTAPE.

Compatibility:

Designed for neutral pronation, these shoes are suitable for runners whose feet roll inward naturally. They perform best on road surfaces and prepared tracks. Not recommended for trail running due to the outsole design.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or submerging in water, as this can damage the materials and foam.
  • Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
