PUMA DEVIATE NITRO 3 - UPDATE TO THE BEST VALUE PLATED SHOE ON THE MARKET - WORTH THE WAIT? - EDDBUD

[@TheSiameseDreamer]

Congratulations on reaching 52k. I can't believe I've been here since the beginning.

[@skybiz4520]

I cannot call 11-12 OZ a racing shoe, - 8-9 OZ is the target weight for me and for some reason this is the most important attribute. Recently - Saucony Endorphin Pro/2 my favorites ( 8 oz) not 12, but I get it, Puma looks great otherwise. Thanks for the review..!

[@metalsadman]

same, i have 2 pairs of dn2, so I would prolly get dne3 rather.

[@teewaikay]

Curious - why get Superblast 2 and not the DN3? Asking because I have both DN2 and Superblast 1 (love both) and am considering between DN3 and Superblast 2 now

[@infernaltim]

First, my PB on this channel! Lol

[@EDDBUD]

[@rogerx9298]

v2 is one of my favorites, but it is the shoe where my feet overpronates the most. It's due to the narrow base on the midfoot. And it's not just narrow, it's angled like an "S" so the inner/medial side of my midfoot is practically hanging on air. The 2nd issue is the pointy toebox. My toes aren't allowed to splay naturally. Other than that I love the overall feel of the shoe. Just need to navigate more carefully on flat surfaces. I wish they made the toebox similar to the Foreverrun, and widened the base on the midfoot. They could have resized the small cutout to avoid adding weight. Oh well, I guess they didn't want to change it too much, but I think it's too little too late.

[@stevecolders]

Interesting review. I can't see a world where I won't buy a pair of these, but I'll definitely wait for them to get rid of that Nitro text on other models. V2 was my parkrun shoe of choice, interesting you think this'll be better at longer distance stuff.

[@EDDBUD]

It’s more controlled and stable for longer perhaps steady runs as opposed to the faster efforts. Perhaps a good interval shoe

[@chrisnelson5442]

Really enjoyed 2 for long runs, daily runs and 5k tempo runs but midsole started to bottom out at 300km eventually taken out of rotation at 400km. Oh and sometimes between then it started to shed pieces of the outsole.

[@teewaikay]

that's a shame. just hit 600km in my pair - love them

[@olegeorg]

After 650km the sole was about 1cm lower than on a new pair. They still felt ok and perhaps the sole was done after 500.

[@robin29991]

I loved the first version but the v2 somehow didn' t do it for me. A bit disappointing that this v3 now has gone up in weight.

[@lordedmundo23]

Thanks for the review. Strange that they didn't fit the heel issue by narrowing down to more of a v shape than the rounded heel - which they did change between the VN2 and VN3. Didn't bother me much - but I know it did for some people. Somehow this colourway (and big logo!) doesn't look as good as it does on the Elite V3. However, I see Puma have 4 other colourways already available as of today. Loved the DN2, but will give this one a miss for now. The Brooks Hyperion Max 2 could well be the better alternative for me. Similar specs - looks great in the pics as well (plus big Brooks logo on the side!)

[@EDDBUD]

The blue one is really nice

[@marga_asana2run]

Dankeschön!Will go 4 ver 2, if in discount 😀 Love the color!

[@matthewstevenson6207]

Shoe manufacturers should really have a massive justification for increasing weight in running shoes from one version to another. Does not sound like Puma can justify the weight in this case. Might be more tempted to try the Mizuno Rebellion Flash 2 when the DN2s are due for replacement.

[@davidlynch9049]

I got an early version of this shoe from a French company that didn't respect the release date. 😂 I have 100 km on them. I think it's an improvement except for the heel fit for me. I had the same size as the Deviate 2s (men's North American size 9). I wish they would have made the heel like the Velocity 3s. I wouldn't say I like the heels as, like you, I had a heel slip in my left shoe, but not the right shoe with average lacing. 🤷🏻 I don't usually do a runner's loop, but for this shoe, I did, which solved the problem, but the heel is a fail IMHO. And that external heel shark thingy should be forgotten as it doesn't do anything that I could tell. As you mentioned, a simple, boring, harder insert heel counter works well and would have improved the heel. I don't care about the weight as I will use it for a daily trainer and the Velocity 3s, which I will likely use more than this one. I prefer this upper over the last version, except for the heel fit. Thanks for the candid review. 😊

[@TheGetawayMan]

The Novablast 3 and 4 are equally loud to this, for me. I feel like I’m a fairly nimble runner but the world knows when I’m coming in either of those lol

[@Feanaro5503]

I use all the eyelets whenever possible. Two shoes where that really helped the lockdown were the ZoomX Invincible and the Pegasus 39. But I had to replace the stock laces to do it.

[@EDDBUD]

Yes the invincible 3 was spot on using all eyelets

[@waltersinnett9095]

The weight increase can probably be explained as Puma attempting to reposition the Deviate Nitro as their "super trainer" rather than the more speed shoe it was before. Looking at their Nitro lineup right now you have the Fast-R as their out-and-out marathon option, the Fast-FWD as their 5k/10k racer and speed shoe(so their Takumi Sen equivalent even if it is a bit pricier RRP), the Deviate Nitro Elite 3 as their more versatile option that can do both and the likes of the Velocity, Magnify and Foreverrun filling in the various other roles. What they're missing is a "super trainer"; essentially built like a daily trainer but with the foam, plates and technology that started out in top end shoes and designed to be a versatile shoe that can do everything pretty well but is probably best as a long-run shoe for marathon training. Hence this; heavier because the focus has changed from being an uptempo daily trainer you can do fast efforts and speed sessions in (which the 2 was) to being a daily trainer you can do long efforts at marathon pace in. Will it work? I'm not sure for this first take on it. Outside of someone who desperately needs the best outsole Puma's selling point has always been value; their shoes may be just a *tiny* bit worse than comparable options from other brands but they're also considerably cheaper (and tend to be more durable). On paper that's the same here; at RRP £150 it's considerably cheaper than most of the super trainer type shoes from the other brands. The problem is most of those brands are onto the second or third version of their super trainer or at the very least are soon to release an update. That means discounts for those older editions and from the reviews of this shoe I've seen so far it's going to be hard to recommend this over a discounted Speed 3, Superblast, SC trainer, Boston 12 etc. Now almost every shoe struggles to win a value battle against discounted previous editions but that becomes more of an issue when being good value is one of the biggest selling points. My cynical side also thinks that maybe they've got a lot of Fast-FWD's hanging around in warehouses and they don't want to risk cannibalizing their sales. The Deviate Nitro Elite is already a lightweight carbon-plated racer that is really good at shorter distances while also being able to handle the longer ones in the way a Fast-FWD basically can't. If the plain Deviate Nitro was still a really lightweight plated daily trainer than could do speed sessions really well then there'd be even more questions about what the point of the Fast-FWD is then their already are. This way at least they can point to the Fast-FWD and say it's the one you want for 5k/10k races and any speed focused training.

[@EDDBUD]

Yeah the fast fwd seems more the “Takumi sen” now.

[@yianpap6093]

Thanks buddy. A new version is supposed to improve on the previous one and this one does the opposite it seems. Both upper (which was perfect in the DN2, why the hell change it...) and midsole a little degraded, plus the shoe is heavier. as well? Summary: Puma completely failed here. What a shame. How difficult was it to at least not degrade it?! Only the looks are improved, but that won't be enough to persuade me. Good stuff Puma, I have 2 DN2's and I really wanted to add some variety and you give me the perfect excuse lol. Still tempted by the DN3 elite though, to put on whenever I feel like a PB, which is almost never nowadays!

[@EDDBUD]

The elite 3 is a massive upgrade. This one could do with some weight relief

[@markkirschstein]

aww man, love the V2 - this isn't sounding like an upgrade. Today's musical interlude had me laughing though.

[@EDDBUD]

Invincible 3 or a Pegasus fine for walking

[@97shaggy]

Great video as always, any particular shoe you would recommend if on marathon prep but having to go on a family holiday to Disney world in, a bit of a do it all shoe where I can get some training in combined with 20,000+ steps a day ? I don’t want to sacrifice the shoes in my current rotation 😂

[@EDDBUD]

This isn’t a bad choice or perhaps the sl2 from adidas.

[@CaptainTetsuo]

Im still packing 2 x pair of DNE1's. Use them for running speed work and Hyrox racing.

[@EDDBUD]

They are super light

[@tomas0525]

I also experience heel slip on v2. I think it is the convex & concave shape inside the heel. The concave is only 50% not holding anything and convex or padded area is 50%. Other good fitting shoes have concave 75% & convex 25% shape, so it is actually holding the heel down. ~ Hopefully we see some cut in half review to finally confirm the stack height.

[@Fraser365]

I alternate between my Puma DN2 and Superblast version 1s and honestly think if I can, I will just pick up another pair of each as opposed to there respective updates.

[@Thomlabe]

If you’re not going to other brands I think this is very sensible.

[@paulmulks]

I had the v2 and put over 300 miles in them but I thought after after 150 miles the midsole lost its spark and it was then a bit of a slog to run in. I'll probably wait until this version is discounted, or maybe even go for the SL2

[@EDDBUD]

The sl2 is quite formidable!

[@taurusx1000]

I got the version 2 for $120,but I'm sure i could have gotten it cheaper, wasn't able to get that pretty orange sunset color I think the rebel v4 would be my next buy

[@NOKIA6031]

I logged 900k with v.2. In the beginning, I didn't like them, but they were a real workhorse. Only caveat for puma, they did not come in half sizes for sizes above 11uk. The increase in weight for the v.3 will probably hold me away for my 11.5uk (if they made it available). Good job Ed

[@EDDBUD]

Yeah I noticed no half sizes beyond the 11. Somewhat odd choice

[@miltond1]

Coming from the Speed 4, it feels snug for my narrow foot, so a plus for me. The nitro letters don’t bother me at all. Love the color!

[@hauyeelam6057]

Ed, thanks for the review, try several Puma running shoes, such as Forever Nitro, Magnify Nitro, sizing is always the issue for me… size 5 are too big and size 4.5 is too narrow in the toe box. Sadly in the end, I have returned them all. I am also slightly overpronate not sure the DN3 is good for overpronate or not? Any advice?

[@EDDBUD]

The base is nice and stable in the v2/3. I can see it being decent for that

[@francesc5313]

Probably I will hunt for second pair of DN2 on bargain. I feel like DN3E is really big step forward in Deviate Elite series but I'm not sure where Puma want to be in Deviate series. DN2 was maybe too good shoe and maybe it should stay on the market and still be produced as benchmark shoe.

[@luqmananuar226]

True though. Now I'm struggling to find a replacement here in Malaysia. DN2 is no longer available in store. I tried DN3, it is imo, feels like a totally different shoes. A bit aggressive. Bought an Endophin Speed 3, but it is more specialised in speed workouts, rather than all rounder like DN2. Any suggestions for replacement? Tq.

[@epatollecrm]

Feels like the changes are intended to differentiate it even more from the Deviate Elite this time. Makes sense for them to encourage people to go for the more expensive model, but a little disappointing for those of us who love the version 2.

Yes more gap between them now

Hi Edd. I am a huge fan of your channel. However most of the time you tend to skip the toebox width even if you don't have those stats do you mind at least to mention how it feels when running? Thank you

[@EDDBUD]

I think I’ve mentioned it in almost all recent videos. It’s a typical Puma shape with quick lateral taper

[@Running_with_Greg]

@EDDBUD I thought about the width of the shoes. You are an expert and to you it's enough to say typical puma shape and you know what it is or what it feels like. To me when I look for shoes it is vital to know if it will comfortably accommodate my feet. Are they narrow, narrowish, just about roomy enough or wide. That sort of thing 😳 Particularly when it comes to daily trainers when I'll spend most of my runs in them 🤗 Please consider this addition to your reviews. Thank you

[@Re_mad7]

how do you measure the drop? Run Repeat cut it in half and they actually measured it higher than the 10mm advertised, at 10.1mm.

[@EDDBUD]

Sounds like it moved away from the Endorphin Speed 4 & closer to an SC Trainer V2.

I hope it’s a 6 mm drop

[@EDDBUD]

It is 👍🏼

The writing on the wall, england you mean😂

It’s a tough watch right now

Kinda like that Nitro logo tbh…it’s big, it’s brash but then why not shout the fact you’ve invested in your running & your fitness? But then, almost immediately, insidiously, the English reserve kicks in…and the beige nondescripts get another outing :(

[@EDDBUD]

It’s somehow not as prominent on this model

[@Echo_Recon_01]

Another reason for me to save. 😅

So sounds like they really upgraded the nitro elite v3, but nitro v3 is about the same. I guess if it ain’t broke don’t fix it haha

[@EDDBUD]

Big update on the elite 3. Wearing my pair right now

Much appreciated

Multiple lines of 'Southgate, you're the one, you still turn me on' is enough to give anyone a viral condition 🤢

Hope you don’t have glow worms.

So you listened to the track too 😂 I don’t remember it charting but the internet says it got to 14 on the hit parade

Skip the “NITRO” on the medial side! 👍

I think Mach 6 or Novablast 4 much better than it.
