Puma Deviate Nitro Elite 4 review: Most comfortable super shoe ever?
Not long ago, carbon-plated race shoes were fast … and uncomfortable. They were Formula One cars — unbelievably light and explosive, but completely impractical for anything else. The Puma Deviate Nitro Elite 4 changes that. At just 163 grams (US 9.5), with a 40mm stack height, 8mm drop, dual-layer Nitrofoam Elite and a flatter carbon plate, this might be the first true super shoe that feels just as comfortable walking to the shops as it does racing a marathon. In this review, I cover: • What makes it lighter than the Elite 3 • The outsole changes (and what you lose) • Upper and toebox updates • How it compares to the Metaspeed Sky • Stability and “natural run” feel • Whether it’s actually better than the Elite 3 Over the next few weeks I’ll be comparing this shoe against other super shoes — so let me know in the comments which match-ups you want to see.
