Full details
The Puma Men's Deviate Nitro 3 trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking enhanced propulsion and responsiveness in their everyday training. The key benefit is the combination of advanced NITRO™ foam and a PWRPLATE technology for a snappy, energetic ride, ideal for speed-focused workouts. A potential caveat is their recommendation for neutral pronators, meaning they may not be suitable for individuals requiring significant overpronation support. This versatile shoe integrates lightweight construction with dynamic support, making it suitable for Hyrox and various training styles.

FAQs
Who is the Puma Deviate Nitro 3 best suited for?
These trainers are best suited for adult male runners with a neutral foot pronation who engage in everyday training, including tempo runs, interval sessions, and varied workouts like Hyrox. They are designed for those seeking a responsive and propulsive running experience.
What is the main benefit of the NITROFOAM™ and PWRPLATE technology?
NITROFOAM™ provides superior responsiveness and cushioning, while the PWRPLATE (a nylon plate) stabilizes the midsole and maximizes energy transfer, resulting in a distinctly 'snappy' and propulsive ride that enhances speed and efficiency.
How much do the shoes weigh?
The Puma Deviate Nitro 3 trainers weigh approximately 270 grams for a UK size 8.
What is the heel-to-toe drop and stack height?
The shoes have a heel-to-toe drop of 10mm. The stack height is 39mm at the heel and 29mm at the forefoot.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
While they offer good cushioning and responsiveness for training, their design is geared more towards faster-paced, varied workouts. For long-distance marathon racing, runners might prefer a shoe with a slightly different balance of cushioning and support, though they can be used for marathon training.
Can I use these shoes for cross-training in the gym?
Yes, the Deviate Nitro 3's versatility, agility, and supportive structure make them suitable for various gym activities, including circuit training, HIIT, and lighter weightlifting sessions.
How should I clean my Deviate Nitro 3 trainers?
Spot clean using a mild detergent and cold water with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid machine washing. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
What is the sustainability aspect of these shoes?
The engineered mesh upper is crafted with at least 20% recycled materials, contributing to a more sustainable approach in their production.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or causes discomfort.
Ensure laces are adjusted properly; not too tight or too loose. If discomfort persists, consider alternative lacing techniques or check if the size is correct for your foot. Consult the size guide.
Reduced responsiveness or cushioning over time.
This can be a natural sign of wear. The advanced foams and plates have a lifespan. Consider replacing the shoes if performance noticeably degrades after significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles).
Upper material shows signs of premature wear.
Ensure proper care and avoid excessive exposure to abrasive surfaces or harsh cleaning chemicals. Check for any loose threads or potential snags during activities.
