Full details
The Puma MagMax Nitro 2 trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking maximum cushioning and energy return for an ultra-plush, comfortable ride. While they offer exceptional comfort, they may be best suited for training runs rather than high-intensity speed work due to their focus on cushioning. Key features include advanced NITROFOAM™ cushioning, a breathable engineered mesh upper with PWRTAPE reinforcement, and a durable PUMAGRIP outsole for multi-surface traction. These trainers provide a regular fit with a rounded toe and lace-up fastening.

FAQs
What is NITROFOAM™?
NITROFOAM™ is Puma's innovative nitrogen-infused foam technology. It uses premium raw materials to provide maximum energy return and superior cushioning, offering an ultra-plush and responsive ride.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the MagMax Nitro 2's high stack of NITROFOAM™ cushioning makes them very suitable for marathon training and the race itself, especially for runners who prioritize comfort and impact protection on long runs.
How do I clean the engineered mesh upper?
Gently clean the engineered mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals to preserve the material's integrity and breathability.
What kind of surfaces does the PUMAGRIP outsole provide traction on?
The PUMAGRIP outsole is designed for durable traction on a variety of surfaces, including roads, sidewalks, and light trails. It offers reliable grip even in wet conditions.
What is the width of these trainers?
These trainers are designed with a regular width, which is standard for most athletic footwear and should accommodate a wide range of foot shapes.
Can I use these for speed work or racing?
While they offer good energy return, the MagMax Nitro 2 is primarily optimized for maximum cushioning and comfort, making them ideal for training runs. For very fast-paced speed work or competitive racing, you might prefer a lighter, more responsive shoe from Puma's performance line.
What is the stack height of the MagMax Nitro 2?
The MagMax Nitro 2 features a significant stack height, noted as 'high' in the product description, providing substantial cushioning for an ultra-plush ride.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the lacing pattern. Experiment with different lacing techniques to find a fit that is comfortable and secure for your foot shape.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time.
While NITROFOAM™ is durable, cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes after significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles), depending on wear patterns and individual preference.
Traction is reduced on wet surfaces.
Ensure the PUMAGRIP outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. While designed for multi-surface traction, extreme wet conditions can still reduce grip. Exercise caution during wet runs.
Discomfort or rubbing in specific areas.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe fit is correct for your foot shape or if break-in is required for the specific areas.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the shoes with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution, applying it with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
