Full details
The Puma Deviate NITRO™ 3 is designed for adult male runners seeking enhanced propulsion for everyday training. Its key benefit is the 'snappy' ride delivered by PWRPLATE technology and NITRO™ foam, infusing speed into every stride. A potential consideration is that the upper is made with at least 20% recycled materials, which might affect breathability for some users.

FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the Deviate NITRO 3?
The primary benefit is its ability to deliver unparalleled propulsion and a 'snappy' ride, making training runs feel faster and more efficient due to the combination of NITRO™ foam and PWRPLATE technology.
Who is this shoe best suited for?
This shoe is best suited for adult male runners with a neutral pronation who engage in everyday training and are looking for enhanced speed and responsiveness.
What is NITROFOAM™?
NITROFOAM™ is an advanced, nitrogen-injected foam designed to provide superior responsiveness and cushioning in a lightweight package, enhancing both comfort and performance.
What is the PWRPLATE?
The PWRPLATE is a carbon fibre plate engineered to stabilize the midsole while maximizing energy transfer from heel to toe, contributing to the shoe's propulsive feel.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon racing?
While they offer excellent responsiveness and cushioning for daily training and tempo work, they are designed more as a high-performance trainer. For dedicated marathon racing, PUMA may offer shoes with different constructions optimized for that specific discipline.
How does the recycled material in the upper affect the shoe?
The upper is made with at least 20% recycled materials, contributing to sustainability. For most runners, this provides a comfortable and standard fit. However, some individuals might find the breathability or feel differs slightly from shoes made with 100% virgin materials.
What is the heel-to-toe drop and stack height?
The heel-to-toe drop is 10mm, and the stack height is 39mm at the heel and 29mm at the forefoot.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces, particularly around the midfoot, and re-tie them more loosely. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks.
Reduced cushioning effect
Check for debris or wear on the outsole and midsole. Over time, foam cushioning naturally compresses; consider replacing the shoes if they have significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles).
Slipping on wet surfaces
The outsole is designed for general traction. For extremely wet or slippery conditions, exercise caution. Consider dedicated wet-weather running shoes if this is a frequent concern.
Upper material feels abrasive
This can sometimes occur with new shoes, especially those with recycled materials. Wear them for shorter distances initially to allow them to break in, and ensure socks cover the heel and ankle area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Puma Deviate NITRO 3 requires no special setup. Simply lace them up and head out for your run. Ensure the lacing provides a secure but comfortable fit, avoiding tightness over the top of the foot.
Compatibility: These shoes are recommended for neutral pronators. They are compatible with most running surfaces, including road, track, and light trails. They are not designed for hiking or trail running with significant obstacles.
Care Instructions: To maintain the performance and longevity of your shoes:
- Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cool water with a soft cloth or brush. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature. Never use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Do not store in plastic bags or sealed containers where moisture can build up.
- Washing Machine: It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as this can compromise the structural integrity and adhesives.
