Puma Velocity Nitro 3 Running Shoes (2E Width)
The Velocity Nitro 3 continues as Puma's flagship running shoe containing NITRO foam cushioning. It's the perfect place to start if you haven't run in Puma recently and want a do-it-all trainer.
Breathable Mesh Upper
The upper of the Puma Velocity Nitro 3 uses a breathable mesh material to provide optimum breathability and comfort. The perforations within the fabric allow cool air to flow, whilst hot muggy air escapes, providing a cooling sensation as you move and a drier, healthier environment for your feet to thrive in. Not only this, but the upper is highly durable thanks to its advanced construction, leaving you with shoes that are built to last. On the instep, Puma has added PWRTAPE to provide structure and support the foot whilst reducing in-shoe movement. Further increasing support, the shoes also feature a TPU heel spoiler which helps stop the ankle from rolling inwards. The Puma Velocity Nitro 3 has a traditional lacing system that offers a secure, locked-in feel as you run, and the upper is finished with Puma branding details for a sporty look.
NITRO Foam Midsole
The midsole of the Velocity Nitro 3 has been created using a NITRO Foam midsole. The foam is made from a nitrogen-infused Peba which is lightweight and springy, providing high energy return and responsiveness. By infusing nitrogen into the foam, Puma has been able to expand their midsoles. By doing so, the shoes are extremely comfortable underfoot whilst also providing maximum propulsion with each step, letting you run further and faster with ease. Not only will the foam help propel you forward helping you to hit those PBs but it also absorbs shocks and negative impact forces as you strike hard unforgiving surfaces. As a result, it reduces stress on the joints and the risk of injury.
PUMAGRIP Outsole
Finishing the shoes, Puma have used their PUMAGRIP rubber compound in the outsole construction, which combines superior traction with durability. Strategically placed, the rubber forms a solid connection with a wide range of surfaces, even when wet or dry, giving you the confidence to run whatever the weather. The strong connection with the ground will also provide a firm base to push off from, allowing for a more efficient gait cycle.
