In this video I’m giving you my initial review of the PUMA Deviate Nitro 4, the new plated training shoe that’s just landed in the UK for £150. I bought this one with my own cash, as always, so nobody’s paying me to say nice things. The big question is simple: is this an essential update, or is it more of the same? I run through the key stats first, then break it down properly into upper, midsole and outsole after getting some early miles in. The Deviate Nitro 4 is going for a maximal stack setup with two blends of NITRO foam and a composite carbon plate in the middle, so it’s clearly aiming to be that fast daily/tempo option that can cover a lot of bases. I talk about how the upper feels on foot, how the midsole behaves under load, and what the outsole is doing in terms of grip and durability expectations. I also cover value at £150 and finish up with my final scores. Let me know what you think down in the comments, keep it nice, and I’ll see you in the digital ones and zeros.
