Product Information
Full details
The Puma Deviate NITRO 4 trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking enhanced speed and performance. With a focus on energy return and a lighter build than its predecessor, these trainers are ideal for tempo runs and race days. A potential consideration is their neutral pronation support, which may not suit all runner gaits. Key features include enhanced NITROFOAM, a breathable engineered mesh upper, and a carbon composite PWRPLATE for propulsion.

The main benefit is its speed-enhancing design, featuring lighter weight, enhanced NITROFOAM for better energy return, and a PWRPLATE for propulsion, making it ideal for faster running.
Who is this shoe designed for?
It is designed for adult male runners who prioritize speed and performance, particularly for tempo runs, interval training, and race day.
Is this shoe suitable for runners who overpronate?
No, the Deviate NITRO 4 is designed for neutral pronation. Runners who overpronate may require shoes with stability features.
How does the PWRPLATE technology work?
The carbon composite PWRPLATE is embedded in the midsole to create a lever effect, providing a propulsive and efficient toe-off with each stride.
What are the weight and stack height specifications?
The shoe weighs approximately 250g (for a UK size 8) with a stack height of 38mm in the heel and 30mm in the forefoot.
How should I clean my Puma Deviate NITRO 4 trainers?
Clean them using a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap and water for deeper cleaning. Avoid machine washing. Allow them to air dry naturally.
Does the shoe use recycled materials?
Yes, the upper of the shoe is made with at least 20% recycled materials.
What is the heel-to-toe drop?
The heel-to-toe drop is 8mm.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct size and width. Try lacing them differently to relieve pressure points. Wear with appropriate running socks. If the issue persists after a break-in period, consider trying a different model.
Lack of traction on wet surfaces
The PUMAGRIP outsole offers good multi-surface traction, but performance can vary. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris. For extremely slippery conditions, exercise caution or consider shoes with more aggressive tread patterns.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time
Foam cushioning naturally degrades with use. The lifespan of the cushioning depends on mileage, running style, and surface. If responsiveness diminishes significantly, it may be time to consider a replacement pair.
Upper material feels abrasive
This can sometimes occur with new shoes or if worn without proper socks. Try wearing them with thicker, moisture-wicking running socks. The engineered mesh should become more pliable with use.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Significantly lighter than its predecessor for improved speed.
- Enhanced NITROFOAM provides excellent energy return.
- Durable PUMAGRIP outsole ensures great traction on multiple surfaces.
- Breathable upper keeps feet comfortable during long runs.
- Includes a carbon composite plate for added propulsion.
Cons
- Designed for neutral pronation; may not be suitable for overpronators.
- Maximum cushioning might feel less responsive for runners preferring a firmer feel.
- Carbon plate might require an adjustment period for some runners.
- Specific colorways (like White/Green) may show dirt more easily.
- While lighter, they are still performance trainers and not ultralight racing flats.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. Simply ensure they are the correct size and fit. For optimal performance, it is recommended to break them in gradually with shorter runs before tackling long distances or races.
Compatibility: The Deviate NITRO 4 is designed for neutral runners. It is compatible with most running surfaces, including road, track, and light trails, thanks to its versatile PUMAGRIP outsole. It is suitable for adult male runners.
Care:
- Cleaning: After runs, remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or prolonged sunlight, which can degrade the materials.
- Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
