Puma Velocity Nitro 3 vs Puma Magnify Nitro 2: Which Puma shoe is right for you?

[@kye455]

I have the magnify nitro 2 and done almost 200 miles in the shoe and absolutely love it such a good daily. It's so good I've purchased a second pair which was on sale

[@JDeezle21]

I also grabbed the Magnify 2's & love them

[@kye455]

@JDeezle21 there brilliant I'm also using the puma devaite nitro 2's as well which are also amazing and in the sales at the mo

[@MiracleWarriors]

How is the stability of the Magnify Nitro 2 ? Comparable to the stability of a Vomero 17, Gel-Nimbus 26 , On Cloud Eclipse or a NB 1080 v13 ( a little wobbly in the heel but I don't overpronate on them ) ?

[@kye455]

@MiracleWarriors I've not tried any of the others but I've never had any stability issues with them tho

[@Fozzee.1970]

What's the difference between them? I find the DN2 too flat and firm. ​@@kye455

[@mateuszmrowiec4265]

I own both and they are FANTASTIC!! ;D I guess will stay with the brand for a long time.

[@paullooper1090]

Magnify is wide foot friendly, how is the fit of the velocity?

[@mateuszmrowiec4265]

narrow and very snug. After some KM (50) is softer and you can feel more ground. @@paullooper1090

[@benjaminkuch2558]

I have the Magnify 2 and really like them. I use them for basically every non-fast stuff I do, but I even used them once for a 3x5x50m session on the track (didn't trust my Steakfly's grip for acceleration in the wet) and they felt actually quite good, so you can run reasonably quick in them.

[@mikewarrentube]

Thanks for emphasising the narrow fit of the velocity - very useful to have insights into width as well as length in the fit segment

[@NikosXydias-e9y]

Have been running in the Velocity N3 for a few weeks now and love it. Really versatile and just a great every day shoe. The structure of the tongue is the only thing I am not super fond of as I find it just too thin and a bit strange in terms of shape. First PUMA shoe after many Mizunos, Sauconys and ASICS’. Really impressed!

[@AbhijeetBorkar]

I have the magnify Nitro 2 and they are very fun to run in, nicely cushioned! Great for a long run and recovery!

[@liamglasper1127]

The velocity 2 was may daily trainer and I bought the magnify 2 for long and recovery runs. However, the magnify is extremely comfortable and surprising versatile. I find myself lacing up the magnify almost every run, including tempo sessions. It’s not as quick as the velocity but it’s marginal. I’m 13st/83kg and have a heavy running style, so perhaps this is why the higher stack is better for me as the foam doesn’t compress as much.

[@BriJ1963]

Puma are making great shoes and I've got the magnify 2 and velocity 2 I'd say the midsole cushioning improves after 10 to 12 miles, I have quite wide feet and I'd agree that the magnify shoes are a little wider I found the velocity fit improved again after about 12 miles.

[@matthewcreelman1347]

This might be a weird comparison to want to see, but I'd love to see the Saucony Axon 3 vs the Puma Velocity Nitro 3.

[@marcoc2706]

Wanted to get a pair of Magnify 2 during the holiday sales. But Puma Canada didn't even have the men's version!

[@neilmac6360]

Both superb shoes & exceptional value for money imho.

[@andreasclair3454]

Which one of these would you say are most close to the Deviate Nitro 2 in terms of fit? I’m looking for a pair of shoes to use on the treadmill and/or at the gym.

[@bambaklats2891]

Velocity

[@timlicence94]

Agree, I have the Deviate Nitro 2 and Velocity Nitro 2 (but have tried the V3) and would say the two are very similar in fit and width. I have the magnify 3s on order now too :) @@bambaklats2891 @andreasclair3454

[@marky1974]

Are both shoes stable?

[@MiracleWarriors]

Is the Magnify Nitro 2 as stable as a Gel-Nimbus 26 or a Nike Invincible 3 ? Those new guilded neutral strike shoes are becoming super stable that, for me, is "killing " the need of buying stability shoes . I hope that this huge stack of Nitro foam don't collapse inwards like the old Asics Nova Blast 1 . Thanks .

[@benjaminkuch2558]

I can't compare it to the Nimbus or Invincibles but I never had any instability issues with my Magnify

[@collins735]

I've got the magnify 2 and I had the nimbus 1 and they are night and day different. Towards the end of my long runs the rear of the nimbus would roll inwards where I was fatigued and losing form. Whereas the puma is rigid from start to finish. The nimbus is definitely a more springy shoe though.

[@MyFatAdaptedLife]

I would consider either pair, if it wasn't for the 10 mm heel drop, which seems rather aggressive for a daily trainer.

[@Ginguredrunner]

There is almost no rocker...so I'd say they don't feel like 10mm (I have the mag2)

[@natglenn129]

Looking a none carbon shoe. Was looking at the Velocity or the NB Rebel, any suggestions.

[@dri1811ya]

I have V2 and Rebel 3. Rebel is noticeably lighter and easier to push pace in. Velocity for easy or longer runs.

[@italiansurprise]

Can anyone compare Magnify Nitro 2 and Saucony Triumph 20/21?

[@pedrorelvao4117]

Check for the test, where on the channel...

[@ds77777]

Velocity can feel flat for a heavy runner. At least it did for me. Magnify 2 turned out to be a much better shoe. Guess it really depends on weight. I am 90 kg.

[@liauwsuryadi9251]

wouw...An Alladin Shoes, it is not good for my toes, i had buy and used it, after 6 months, i had paints on my toes, just because the shape narrow.

[@Mobeku]

Pyooma

[@Paulo_afonso1977]

I Hate the Magnify, too bulky for me
