I saw these at my Ross too! But I chose the Salomon aero glide that was also at Ross! I liked the slightly wider toe box on aero glide but I liked the bounciness of the puma deviate nitro 2. I’m already thinking about going back to grab it just to have in rotation and at $39 it’s a steal!
@@ATFOURELEVEN nah California , yea I ended up getting the green aero glide, you think I should just grab the pumas lol I feel like I’m gonna miss out if I don’t get it now lol 😂
I’m really happy as a Puma Velocity Nitro 2 how Puma has reinvented itself in the running ecosystem. I see all these great shoes and people regaining confidence, it’s just makes me smile. Remember that the best marketing it’s a good product.
at first, i wasn't sure about these puma shoes. so I tried electrify nitro 2 for the light training version first.. the results were very satisfying, namely there were no blisters on the soles of my feet, the knee pain disappeared, and the grip made my running practice more comfortable, no slipping. finally i decided to buy puma deviate nitro 2..again i was amazed with the result. very comfortable on the feet, lightweight for high-speed running practice, agile, and no less than other top-level running shoes.
Awesome, was waiting for this review. I like the fact that Megan is so comfortable in front of the camera now. It wasn't that long ago that she didn't want to step in front of it. Good review, well done all.
I just picked up a pair for £89 in the UK. I had the v1 and wasn't impressed with them so they got sold pretty quickly. Looking at this review and reading some of the comments below I'm looking forward to getting the v2 👌
I bought the V1 with these heel padding which is weird but really works. They were deeply discounted from a Puma Outlet…. AUD 300+, then $260, then 50% off that. It’s a steal under AUD140. Puma is very good to us budget conscious runners.
Just got this on a one off sale online here in the Philippines for around $70 USD. I don’t think anyone can get it at this price anywhere in the world. This review made me feel more lucky to have copped a pair at this price. 🔥
Love v1 despite heel issues. I used them until I worn lateral forefoot rubber down to the foam. Puma grip is awesome! Great for my many sloshy/slushy/snowy/icy/grassy/muddy/rainy/sunny runs in Ohio. Look fwd to v2👍🏻👍🏻
When I buy new running shoes I search for the best fit, comfort cushion weight and bounce, to compare I will wear the new shoe on one foot and the other current favorite on the opposite foot….theses shoes shocked me when I put them on…they were as good and better than most of my other shoes from adidas, Nike, Hoka , ASICS, cloud….at 160.00 they are worth every penny, I picked them up on sale $99. And they come reg and wide width, great great shoe
How does the deviate compare to the superblast in terms of comfort? I had the superblast and returned that shoe because the foam was too stiff to run in at easier slower paces which affected my Achilles. Anyone else have any issues like this?
The heel issues have not been resolved yet. I still have some rubbing going on. And I've heard from several other runners who've had the same problem. Other than that, I've got 400km in them now, still almost as good as new and love them.
So....there's an Nitro Elite, which at some point has gotten an upgrade under the same model name. There also seems to be a non-available Elite 2 now, which might be called different in Europe/UK vs the US. Now this Deviate Nitro 2 does mention "elite" on the midsole, though it's not an actual carbon plated Elite version... And than there's also the Deviate Fast-R, which is supposed to be their high end super shoe. Puma might be on the right track with their running shoes these days, but they really need to work on their marketing game.
I've been looking at this shoe for a while and cant really decide. Heard other reviews on it; and basically they said it s a great shoe; but other shoes in the same category can do it better. I guess the only way to know is to buy the damned shoe and try it out.
I like the stack height. The grip looks amazing for winter. Hopefully it doesn't run long like the Velocity Nitro 2, or the Novablast 3. And of course like the Novablat 3, this shoes is still not available in Canada. I feel like Meg is not a person you want to piss off, at least that's how it comes across in the vids haha.
@@DuncanEpping You'd think they would get this part right. Very strange, especially with people complaining about it with the previous versions. I returned the Velocity 2 cause found the length annoying and size down was too tight and too short.
@@DuncanEpping Okay good to know I don't have weird feet haha. I really wanted the Pumas. Don't have this issue with any other shoes. If Puma wants to be weird they need to make 3/4 sizing as well.
I'd love to buy this shoe as I love my Velocity Nitro v1 and v2... But I just don't run quite enough to need so many shoes and I want the shoes I already have to be worn out in time for when 2023 shoes drop haha
Thanks for the video, and love the channel. I am big guy (95kg/210 pounds) and run a half marathon around 1:55-2:00, would you recommend the Velocity 2 or Deviate 2 as a potential race day shoe? Or would the NB Supercomp Trainer be more suitable? I find the more traditional racing shoes not that great for my size/pace.
@@colbert6122 perhaps you're just like me. Like other people have mentioned before, it could work for the pace that you asked... but for a longer run, it may felt some slight discomfort.
I have this arriving in the coming week and am really looking forward to it. This will be my first Puma running experience. I have over two dozen road running shoes and another dozen or so trail running shoes from the likes of Nike, Saucony, adidas, ASICS, Hoka, NB, On, Speedland, Salomon, and inov-8, but Puma had never entered my radar, until THIS. Seems like a winner that can handle most road-running requirements short of race day. It seems like the Deviate Nitro 2 will complement my Novablast 3, Endorphin Speed 3, and Mach 5 in the daily trainer category very well. I want a different feel, ride, and experience with every running shoe. I want each to have its own thing; not too close to anything I already have and this seems like it has it - something different with its own "character", so to speak. Seems like it's a wee bit heavy due to its heavy-duty outsole but that's cool and offers a feature that my other daily trainers lack. Looks sleek, fast, and cool as well. I used to like Puma back in the day - haha - and it's great to see Puma getting back into the game. The Puma stripe logo is iconic. I'll be checking out more Puma shoes in the future although this one seems to stand out from the pack.
@@georgejopanos763 Tried both and to me there is no discussion, the Novablast 3 TR it is a GREAT shoe. Do it all, very responsive it is a real pleasure running on it.
Found these at Ross today for $39.99. There's another pair there and I'm just going to get it for daily rotation.

Just got mine. These are fire!!! Better than everything I've run in this year, including Speed 3
Is this good for wide feet?
LOVE my Velocity Nitro 2 so I’m eager to try this baby. I’m a huge Puma fan now!!!
And it was only 2021 when Puma surprised us with this awesome line! Puma, keep up the good work 💪

It’s a great time to be a runner. So many options. Decisions Decisions 🤔
The paradox of choice. It's a nightmare. But I'll take.

If it's anywhere even close to the first version, it's not only a winner, but better than most anything else in class. My V1 pairs have been amazing.

Light, puma grip, & nailing the colorways, what's not to like about that.

Good morning for all the runners. Good and interesting information about Puma D. nitro2. Like for Meaghan and Thomas. A nice day for everyone.

Shoe brands should be paying you for the quality product photography.
I’ve vn2, should I get the dn2? It seems similar except the carbon plate.

Put 400mi on the V1s and been running in the V2s past 3 weeks. Defiantly another workhorse for me.
Is this good for wide feet?
I always look forward to Megan's review. I follow her advice b/c I can only wear very cushioned sneakers.
i have the guest iteration and they are great… was thinking of getting another pair of running shoes and now these got released 😊😊 good times

@@Kaisersozze I did exactly the same thing. I tried two different sizes and it just didn't work. Ended up buying Saucony again
@@DuncanEpping Okay good to know I don't have weird feet haha. I really wanted the Pumas. Don't have this issue with any other shoes. If Puma wants to be weird they need to make 3/4 sizing as well.
I actually sized down half a size but bought the wide fit even tho I don’t have particularly wide feet. It worked a treat!
How would you recommend the sizing on this shoe
Would you suggest it to run a marathon at pace 4.45 min / km ?
Where can i buy that white color
Are these a good racer for 5-10k
man I love the colors. Just got some peg turbo N.N. so I have to use those for awhile.
what do you think if compare to asics glide ride 3?
Having worn down my Speed V2’s, I am torn between trying these Pumas or going for the obvious choice which is the Endorphin Speed 3. Your thoughts?
Check out between two shoes
Nitrogen infused foam is good because why? (Don't have time answer that, just a thought I had)
Is it not available yet?
Can i use the female version? Any difference in fit same size 42?
Which is better cushioned and can race better, deviate 2 vs nova blast 3?
Can we do puma deviate nitro 2 vs endorphin shift 3 on "between 2 shoes". Which would you prefer?
Love the review.. especially the outtakes!
Also another one I want to try out..
I'd love to buy this shoe as I love my Velocity Nitro v1 and v2... But I just don't run quite enough to need so many shoes and I want the shoes I already have to be worn out in time for when 2023 shoes drop haha
Is this shoes good for sprinter?
how is the insole from the deviate nitro 2? is it basic eva or its made with nitro foam too? >.
Would you recommend this as a daily trainer because it has carbon fibre plate?
yes! it's better than novablast 3 for me
excellent as always!, can we compare them with the speed 3? or is it a different shoe? Thank you!
We did a between 2 shoes on the very topic

Deviate has more underfoot
True to size?? Or go up 1/2 size??? Getting ready for 1/2.....
Up 1/2 size please if u have wide feet
@@luisrazormax2861 old,old question/ but appreciate ya.....
Could these be used for a half marathon or more suited for daily training?
Yes
Does it kind of compare to the tempus?
No the tempus is a stability shoe.
On sale right now in the Philippines for 90$
I wish it was light greay or silver..white gets dirty when yo ugo fast!
Is it true to size or do you need to go a 1/2 up?
TTS
Which ride is better, this or Nova 3
Between 2 shoes coming up
@@Believeintherun looking forward to the comparison.
Is it comfortable enough for easy paces (i mostly run in 7 min/km pace)? I read that some reviewers felt discomfort and stiffness during slower paces.
I definitely prefer it at quicker paced
I'm curious how it performs for 6:30-7:30/km half
@@colbert6122 perhaps you're just like me. Like other people have mentioned before, it could work for the pace that you asked... but for a longer run, it may felt some slight discomfort.

Great review guys
Can you tell me if I wear a 12.5 on hoka Mach 5s would I go 12 or 13 on puma? They don't have 12.5.
Just depends on how much toe room you want, but they run true
Same question. Did you find an answer?
When does this white colorway get released in the states?! It’s gorgeous!
they could be compared with the endorphin speed
Big cat energy 😼
this or novablast 3??
Both are tops. How important is grip where you run. Puma grip is pretty solid for the winter.
@@Believeintherun oh okay.. the puma grip on the deviate nitro 2 is the same exact one as on the velocity nitro 2?
