I finally got mine a little over a month ago due to them being out of stock for a while. I love the ride. Two 10K races in them and they helped me to a top 3 in one still coming back from a knee injury.
Ran my recent marathon pb in these and I absolutely loved them. They are so comfortable and the cushion held up much better over the distance than my og alphafly’s did.
Hi Edd. Been a long time since I last commented. Hope you and your family are doing well. My rehab for runners knee has gone well I feel blessed. Still a bit cautious about running alot but I do a few runs per week with the NB5 fantastic shoe btw what a banger. I do some off season gym work and alot of tennis which is hella fun. Much love as always.
Thanks Eddbud the man! 🥳 Want to say again that I love your videos, your calm voice, your indepth expertise, your few german words (dankeschön!) amd the musical inderludes at the end! Very nice and refreshing combos :) Since I have the Deviate Nitro Elite 2 (1/4 size down or something) on its way to me, how does version 2 compare to this verion 3? :) Greetings from Austria - Danke Edd!
Like you bought 3 pairs of AF3s this year, I've bought 3 pairs of PDNE3 this year. It's by far my favourite race day shoe. Just works for me. Now available in many running online shops here in Australia including the Puma site. We have the collab PUMA x REPRESENT 247 Deviate NITRO Elite 3 and the Ekiden and the FGL White/Sunset colorway. I'm hoping they drop a clean white/black colorway soon too.
I’m building my Puma rotation. Started with the Velocity Nitro 3 and love them. Magmax just arrive today and got my first run in them. Love them. The DN elite 3 are in my wanted list. Hoping I might get lucky and find a deal in Boxing Day sales. Would love to bring them into my rotation with an eye to race in them at the end of Feb for my first half.
Definitely tempted with this, Snowdonia marathon at the end of next year has some rougher terrain at the end of it and the grip on this shoe could make it the weapon of choice.
I only use this shoe now (gave my version 2 to one of my kids, still going strong) indoors and out. I wish the tongue was a tiny bit longer (don't we all) as lacing is a pain. Truthfully you don't get the best out of it below 13-14ph and it gets going nicely at 16kph+ Unfortunately I don't get to those speeds unless I'm going downhill. But until they put a motor in a shoe those speeds are temporary (but fun).
My shoe buying this year when i went to buy Puma deviate nitro elite 3, none available Asics metaspeed paris, none available Nike fly 6, none available Adidas Evo sl, nope none I bought a pair of Adidas primeX2 for £127 , sure they last forever
Ow one last question - these or the Nike Zoom Fly 6? Both will be used as shorter mid racers and trainers for upcoming marathon (in April) I know there's quite a dollar difference.
That new colourway for this super shoe drops on 20/12/24 according to the official Puma UK site. Shame, it’s not released until after the 30% discount code (BEAT) released earlier today.
Ed hello! I m trying to find a pair of Marathon shoes but they re all so expensive!😢 I ran last year's marathon with Boston12. What's your advice and your choices please?! Nimbus25/magnify2/novablast???
I'd been looking out for a pair of these for ages, finally gave up and pulled the trigger on the Fast R V2 instead, then they go and release a new batch. Thanks Puma 🤦🏻
@@j.ernestomora5567 me too. Puma seems to fit long in general. My larger right foot is 45,5. I bought a pair of Velocity Nitro 3 GTX in EU 46 per chance and yeah, long, but the toe box is flat, so the toenail of my fat big toes press against the upper. When running you don't notice it (just barely, if you thing about it), but i wouldn#t want to try it half size smaller (EU 45). The normal Velosity Nitro 3 in EU 46 i just giot, fits larger in general, means "higher" in the toe box and therefore less snug out of the box. In addition to the long fit, it feels good, but surely a half size too large. Reviewers testers say true to size or even gone down half a size (I think it was ben Parks). Another Puma in 45 is in its way to me :) Sooo, if you are in between sizes, maybe pick the smaller one! I also go with the smaller 285mm / rounded down EU 45 in most Asics shoes (Superblast, Kayano Lite 3, Nimbus 26, Fuji Lite 3) but in GT2000 and Noosa Tri i need the next higher number, 290mm / rounded up EU 46. Novablats 4 TR I don't know, my 46 feel large, but i didn't try it in 45. Ben Parks also goes down half a size in Superblast and also in the Novablast (seen in his NB5 video recently). VN2 in 45, DN2 in 45 and DNE2 also in 45 or on their way to me :)
@@philipppuchner1115 I bought Novablast 4 in my usual size and one half a size down because I also watched Ben's video. I returned the smaller one because my pinky fingers were smashed after a while. My usual size is indeed a little bit large but after a while I got used to. Thank you for your reaponse
Isn't the Magnify Nitro model clearly wider than all the other Puma models? I believe also the Foreverrun was said to be a little wider than Puma-usual. And they fit wider than Hoka and much wider than Adidas SL2, so i think they are somewhat in range of "normal footed folks", but just maybe in the narrower half.
@philipppuchner1115 I tried the Magnify Nitro in Store, but it was too narrow in the toe box. My pinky toe rubbed against the plastic cover. Same for the Foreverrun.
Multiple Puma owner here vouching for outsole durability. Best in class based on my experience.
Bought a pair. Fairly plentiful in the US! Spot-on review, Edd!!
💯 the best shoe I've owned to date! 🏃♂️🤟💪
I finally got mine a little over a month ago due to them being out of stock for a while. I love the ride. Two 10K races in them and they helped me to a top 3 in one still coming back from a knee injury.
Ed cant get hold of this shoe this week but I support you re Puma Shoes soles - simply the best 👌
Ran my recent marathon pb in these and I absolutely loved them. They are so comfortable and the cushion held up much better over the distance than my og alphafly’s did.

Glad the blaster is working out for you!
A review i 100% agree. I have 300 miles on one and over 100 miles on another. I love marathon green edition, wish I couple find another
Thanks for another honest review 🙏🏾👏🏽. Not planning to buy it but may be tempted if they eventually come on sale in the future.
Got mine to 100k this weekend with a 10k race... What a beautiful shoe, set it and forget it, the foam so bouncy and the traction is fantastic.
I love that people who have tried the show know how superb it is!
Thanks Eddbud the man! 🥳

Thanks for tuning in. Much softer midsole in the v3.
Love it Ed.
My absolute shoe of the year. A joy. New white colourway released. Snapped it up.
Yes it’s super clean looking

The magmax was a bit much for me. Love the deviate though
Nice review👌. New colourway drop tomorrow from Puma direct

Hi Edd! I bought that for my wife and she loved it!
Awesome review once again Edd! Absolutely love this line!
You and me both!
I did a 6 mile run it yesterday. My first Puma running shoe it was pretty good.
I only use this shoe now (gave my version 2 to one of my kids, still going strong) indoors and out. I wish the tongue was a tiny bit longer (don't we all) as lacing is a pain. Truthfully you don't get the best out of it below 13-14ph and it gets going nicely at 16kph+ Unfortunately I don't get to those speeds unless I'm going downhill.

I've got the new colourway coming tomorrow! Perfect timing with this video!!
🥈
Picked up a pair of these for €172 a few months ago off a French site called lepape, banger of a shoe.
They are hard to beat. Has everything you need though wish they just made more of them!
Morning all. The Puma DNE3....¡¡¡¡¡YEAH!!!!. Like to EDDBUD. Merry Christmas.
Happy holidays!
before AP4 come out this is the best now i switch. but DNE3 is best value for money
Top notch as always Edd. Thanks for another great year of reviews…… My wallet HATES you but the rest of us appreciate 😆👍
This would be my top shoe of the year. There are no issues with availability and a discount. Ordered my second pair as I wrote this msg.
It’s only recently it’s been available again in the uk.
Edd...perhaps your new nickname should be Edd "switch out the laces" Bud! You love to do that! 🤣 You know how to solve any lock down issues.
Love me a lace swap
👍 great track recommendation’
Good Morning Sir!
Morning!
Good morning Edd.
Morning!
You nailed it - best value supershoe!
👊🏼🤖‼️
Puma have hit the spot here. Just need more of them!
Thanks, Edd
My shoe buying this year when i went to buy
Puma deviate nitro elite 3, none available
Asics metaspeed paris, none available
Nike fly 6, none available
Adidas Evo sl, nope none
I bought a pair of Adidas primeX2 for £127 , sure they last forever
Great deal on the NB SC Trail at SportsShoes- £70 in the mustardy colourway. Down from over £200. Most sizes available.
Other colours are £100 too.
🥉
Going to pick up the new colourway
😍
Edd- wow, I actually found a pair! How do these fit since I can only buy online (I'm a size 11 US) and what size would be best?
True to size for me
Ow one last question - these or the Nike Zoom Fly 6? Both will be used as shorter mid racers and trainers for upcoming marathon (in April) I know there's quite a dollar difference.
I need a wide vertion! They are soooo narrow

It’s out on startfittness now
Puma DNE3 vs Saucony EP4 vs ??
What’s the best 3-3.5hr marathon shoe for a 70kg, neutral, strider, heal striker please Edd? 🙏
The Puma trumps the speed in almost all aspects for me
@@EDDBUD and Endorphin Pro 4 too?
It is a toss up between this shoe and the AP4 for my next marathon racer. So conflicted 😅
No sign of the pro 4 yet. Though the Adios 9 is incoming
Available at running warehouse for $230 now
Any chance of a transatlantic Christmas special where Kofuzi joins you to reflect on the best shoes of 2024? That would be an absolute banger.
@@Feanaro5503 I can try! Will give him a shout and see if he has some time
For the algorithm! (also only available in size 13 & 14 in the US)
Ed hello! I m trying to find a pair of Marathon shoes but they re all so expensive!😢
I ran last year's marathon with Boston12.
What's your advice and your choices please?!
Nimbus25/magnify2/novablast???
Find a pair of the deviate nitro elite 2. Loads on discount
Puma Deviate Elite or Asics Metaspeed SKY Paris for marathon?
Asics M. Sky Paris= 2h - 3h; Puma DNE 3= 3h- 3h 30min. Good Luck.
@@Manuel_712 CieloX 3.30/4 h …Thanks
I'd been looking out for a pair of these for ages, finally gave up and pulled the trigger on the Fast R V2 instead, then they go and release a new batch. Thanks Puma 🤦🏻
It’s always the way! The fast r are also great though
Still not emotionally prepared to say goodbye to my nitro elite original version as my treadmill shoe…
Seems perfect for me, just to snug upfront. Bummer.
which one better of ground running shoe puma deviate nitro elite 3 or adidas adizero 4???
Don’t have the 4 so can’t comment on that
Is it better compare to nike alphafly 3 for distance of half marathon and beyond.?
Not another good pair of running shoes.
I need to stop buying them :)))
Thank you for the review, Ed!
Glad you like them!
Puma ❤❤❤❤❤
Is it fine for wide feet? or is it more narrow?
No I feel it’s ok for narrow or normal width
Do you think it is true to size?
Yes but it’s narrow in the toebox.
@@EDDBUD I've heard that it's a little bit long, so I was thinking to buy a half size smaller

One of the best running shoes on the market
😂😂😂
I don’t think you have enough shoes tbh. 😊
@@TechXSoftware My wife won’t agree. 🤣👍🏼
👊🏼🤖‼️
Always appreciated
I would love to buy Puma shoes, but they just run to narrow. They should offer wide versions for us normal footed folks 😢
I've got a pair of these but only tried them on to date, but find these are a better fit and wider in the toe box than the velocity
Yeah I agree with above comment. The elite’s are wider than you’d think. Extremely comfortable too
Okay for normal footed folks.
Isn't the Magnify Nitro model clearly wider than all the other Puma models? I believe also the Foreverrun was said to be a little wider than Puma-usual.
And they fit wider than Hoka and much wider than Adidas SL2, so i think they are somewhat in range of "normal footed folks", but just maybe in the narrower half.
@philipppuchner1115 I tried the Magnify Nitro in Store, but it was too narrow in the toe box. My pinky toe rubbed against the plastic cover.

I have some hooky Persil to get that stain out 🪥
Will we get an Edd by the shoe adorned Christmas tree video this year? 🎄🤞🏻
Yes though I need to wait till the wife’s gone to bed. 🤣
