PUMA Run XX Nitro is warm
A runner said that the engineered mesh upper is great, “extremely well designed and comfortable," but it's also thick, lacks some breathability, and can be warm on hot summer days.
A specific shape
Despite not being backed up by everyone, research on “female-friendly” shoes seems to suggest that narrower at the heel and roomier at the forefront is the ideal shape. Whatever the truth, the result is an extremely comfortable and very secure feel, as those who tested it said:
- “the step-in fit feels custom-made”
- it's an “extremely comfortable fit that hugs the foot”
- “the comfort, step-in and fit are all superb.”
Not lively, yet enjoyable
The ride is described by most reviewers as firm, but very smooth, comfortable, and great overall. An experienced runner said that the feel of the foam in the midsole “as [her] feet land is pretty amazing” and it’s a “super enjoyable ride.”
On the other hand, a tester felt that the shoe lacked responsiveness. As she pointed out, “protection was excellent, but I didn’t get much of the rebound that was advertised.”

This is a stability shoe and therefore ideal for those women who tend to overpronate. The so-called RunGuide technology, which runs from the heel to the midfoot, helps keep the foot aligned and as reported by a tester, she was “well supported from the first mile to the last, every time.”

Among reviewers, there was no doubt about the outsole: it’s definitely grippy on a variety of surfaces, even on wet. As they put it:
- it has “exceptionally high traction rubber”
- the grip is “the real damn deal”
- the traction is “as good as advertised.”
Feels heavier than what’s listed
This shoe is not too heavy for a stability shoe. On the scale, its weight is 8.4 oz (237g) for a US7, and the average is 8.1oz (231g), but as a tester pointed out, “it feels significantly heavier,” and another one added that “these aren’t the fastest-feeling shoes.”
An affordable PUMA shoe
A reviewer commented on the price saying that it is “very reasonable for a stability shoe with such a great midsole.” Being sold at 130$, the XX Nitro is very close to the average cost of similar shoes (134$).

Despite some wear and tear on the outsole at the heel, the durability is reported as being very good and above average. A runner confirmed that after 40 miles there was only minimal wear.
XX Nitro is stylish
Reviewers agreed on the design and colors, saying that they make for a stylish shoe that can perfectly double as a sneaker. As they put it:
- it “looks fantastic”
- “I’ve gotten quite a few questions and compliments about it”
- “the rear plastic piece shouts lifestyle shoe.”
