I looked at, amd tried both. I really likes both. They are much the same. The Brooks feels a litle softer. They are both great, but the Puma was a lot cheaper here in Denmark. Puma 140 euro (on sale)and the Brooks was 210. So in the end the Puma was a no brainer to choose
Great review guys! Cool to see honest opinions; how Nick just didn’t get along with the Puma, how Tom has now come around to the Puma but thinks the Brooks are still a great easy day shoe, how Mike prefers the Puma because it provides a bit more pop and therefore versatility. Would love to try both these shoes one day! Just wondering, how would you guys compare the NB Balos to these two shoes? Seems like another good easy day option if you get along with the ride
Had to return my Mag Max as it was just too narrow in the forefoot. I loved the geometry of the shoe, and the feel of the foam, but it was just a bit too narrow to be confident running in them for a couple of hours without discomfort. I’m usually a standard D fitting, and the Mag Max is certainly closer to a standard D width than the Deviate Nitro 3, but not quite enough. Such a shame Puma builds such narrow shoes without routinely offering wide fittings. I would have thought it would be worthwhile making a wide version of the Mag Max given how suitable it should be for larger runners……..
I've definitely noticed they're narrow and find most running shoes I have to order a half size up with some (Hoka) needing to be a full size up for me.
first few runs in the MagMax it irritated my Achilles a little like Nick experienced, 3rd run got caught in a biblical rain downpour (amazing grip as usual with Puma)...since that soaking it's been no trouble on the Achilles...maybe that's the thing it needed
Anything but Nike these days for me. Personally I swear by Puma and Asics down to their beefier outsole rubber that just lasts longer with me being so heavy footed.
OK, guys, i already ordered Hurricane 24 and Superblast 2, i am not buying more shoes!
Lol. You are covered for sure. Don’t buy more. 😃
For me, More v5 and SB2 and I’m good
I want the two shoes in this video and I’m going to get them. I have the superblast 2, and I want the hurricane. So there’s that. 😂
I have the Hurricane 24's I can make room for the Pumas ❤
I have both of these and Now I feel like I need the hurricane though 😩
What a joy to ride with the puma mag max !!! sensational and quite responsive to be honest...best shoe ever for my long runs
I have both and love them…!
Own the G max and a great shoe, the puma looks great, never had a puma running shoe, may give a try 🎉

Magmax is $70 dollars cheaper in Australia. Tough to argue against that.

Which one would you say is better for heavy runner

or just get the magnify 2 for half the price (frequently on sale for 80/85)
Not the same at all. Good for alternative but not on the same level. Nowhere near.
@@botrytis_cinerea care to elaborate , I'm considering magnify 2
@@bradleyhenry1996 magmax is a bit better but it's not worth 2X the price basically.
@@bradleyhenry1996 magnify 2 is a great shoe for everyday training up to long easy runs. magmax might be better but not nowhere near twice!
I had both. I can't get with the Glycerin Max. Felt like it took more effort to run in compared to the Magmax.

In HKG,PUMA MAGMAX IS 799,AND BROOK IS 1550
Team Puma ❤
Magmax vs Magnify Nitro 2
How does the Hurricane 24 compare to these?
