Product Information
Full details
The Puma MagMax Nitro 2 trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking maximum cushioning and energy return for comfortable, energetic runs, particularly for training and long distances on asphalt. While offering a lighter, smoother, and more responsive ride than its predecessor, a potential drawback for some users might be the specialized nature of its maximum cushioning, which may not suit all running preferences.

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct UK size. Wear with appropriate running socks and consider using the lacing system to customize the fit. The knitted tongue and plush collar are designed for comfort, but some break-in time may be needed.
Reduced cushioning or energy return over time
While NITROFOAM™ is durable, cushioning can gradually decrease with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not being used on abrasive surfaces other than asphalt, which can accelerate wear. Regular cleaning can help maintain material integrity.
Traction issues on wet surfaces
The redesigned outsole offers excellent traction on dry asphalt. On very wet surfaces, grip may be reduced. Run cautiously and be aware of potential slippage.
