Carbon-Plated Speed and Responsive Cushioning for Training and Race Day
The Deviate NITRO 4 is built for runners who want to push the pace. Lighter than its predecessor and designed for performance, this shoe combines advanced cushioning with propulsion to help you run faster and more efficiently.
Featuring upgraded NITROFOAM technology, the midsole delivers high energy return with a smooth and responsive ride. A carbon composite PWRPLATE works through the midsole to provide forward propulsion, helping you maintain speed during tempo sessions and race efforts.
The breathable engineered mesh upper keeps the shoe lightweight and comfortable, while the PUMAGRIP outsole ensures reliable traction across road surfaces. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
