    I did a 5km in the Puma Elite 3 on Sunday. I found it great. Better than the Asics Paris and Vaporfly 3.

      Essayez les Puma Fast R nitro elite 1 ou 2. J'ai les 1 = des bombes, presque plus rapides que mes saucony endorphin pro 2. Un poil moins confortables mais très propulsives

    Yesterday I tested the new Puma DNE 3. These are completely different sneakers and are very different from previous versions 1 and 2. In the first version, the carbon plate does not feel at all, as if it does not exist! the second ones are much better at pushing, but they are still too thin! but now, the third version is exactly what you need! They are quite soft and elastic. But it seems to me that they are better suited for those who run from the middle of the foot, NOT from the heel. The only disadvantage compared to the second version that I saw was the lack of a sealing roller in the heel cup! In the second version, it was there, and it did not allow the heel to crawl up and down, but it simply does not exist here!
    Thanks for the video, and greetings from Russia 😊

    Thanks for this review, I was considering both of these for a road racing shoe. Pumagrip, lighter weight, and firmer midsole makes this a no-brainer. Zoomx seems ok, but it always seems too squishy in other shoes I've tried.

    Just goes to show how different runners can be. Unlike Tom, I think the AF3 is a much better shoot than the AF1. I like the AF1 but the 3 is so much lighter and faster and seems to propel me along with much more ease! The only shoe I would compare it with is the Asics Metaspeed Sky Paris but think that the AF3 edges ahead the longer the race is. Great video guys!

    I have the DNE3, it’s the first race shoe I’ve owned & they’re incredible. They’re so comfy and they feel very, very fast. I did have to heel lock them/use a runners knot to get a good lockdown though, as the first time I used them I had really bad heel rub. Also they are surprisingly long, but true to size for me was just about right.
    I’ve used them for a massive PB in a parkrun, plus a 10k & half marathon race too and loved them for all 3 distances. I’ll be using them for the GNR in September & a marathon next year and would recommend them to anyone, particularly as for race shoes prices they’re cheap. They also help mildly with stability too.

    I usually always agree with nick on racing shoes
    Although for me I much prefer the alphafly 3 and puma deviate elite 3 over the asics meta speed sky Paris
    The Paris is incredibly fast and a really good shoe it’s just way firmer
    I think the ff blast turbo plus is way less soft and bouncy then the puma as well
    Only slight issue with puma is it slightly rubs my heel
    But heel locking helps or a good pair of socks it sorts it out I use Nikes trial socks because extra padding in the heel

    They are definitely not true to size. I’m an 11, and I had to go half size down on the puma and half up on the alphafly

      Same issue on Puma every time, they always run large. Nike was normal for me.

  • @robertw4918
    @robertw4918 6 місяців тому +9

    I like running in the Puma because it's more comfortable and has a more natural motion for me. But the Alphafly is faster. So races = Alphafly, but will do some training in the Puma.

  • @Amtcboy
    @Amtcboy 6 місяців тому +1

    Nike should’ve added some harder rubber on the sides of the heel towards the mid foot.
    I’ve seen many many pictures of Alpha 3s with foam removed on the sides near the mid foot.

    How’s the durability? I’m not a dedicated runner and struggle with it but would like a shoe that gives me an extra edge on 5k plus. Puma imo has been know for durability (more in the football scene) so do these last a long time?

  • @skywalk3x
    @skywalk3x 6 місяців тому +2

    The Alphafly is just too good. Where I live you can try the shoes on a treadmill and the puma is really good but for me the Alphafly feels like I’m not even trying. I have them both and I’m happy with both of them

    Theses are both my favourite and the best racing shoes on the market in my opinion
    But the puma is way better value for almost 100 less
    I’m lucky enough to have both so
    I use alphafly 3 for longer stuff and puma for shorter but there both more the capable of doing shorter and
    Or longer races

    I don't understand how all shoes don't have have good grip like Pumas. It just doesn't seem like a very difficult thing to get right.
    Like anytime I'm out in my Novablast 3s and there's any moisture on the pavement I'm just sliding about all over the place, and then I look at the sole and it's like of course it would do that, it has sod all texture. Like what did they expect, are they doing it on purpose? Does it cost significantly more money to produce outsoles with more pronounced indents in them? I just don't get it

      @michaelgriffiths305 6 місяців тому +2

      Is the AMSP the bounciest? I’m unsure. It’s very light with a responsive foam that is more direct or firmer. The AF1 must get the nod on bounciest ever… other views welcome.

    J'adore Puma, je les compare un peu au New Balance en terme de confort, bien que le mesh des NB se détende un peu plus (j'ai les pieds très larges : hallux valgus). Pour l'instant j'ai eu les deviate nitro elite 1 et 2 et les sensationnelles Fast nitro elite 1. C'est sur, que c'est une marque que je reprendrai si je veux du carbone et pour changer des mes Saucony endorphin pro (celles ci sont tout de meme les plus rapides dans mes paires, et surtout les plus durables)

      @@Artemis-v8i I know what you're saying, but when I buy a new pair of Pumas once a year, I always get them on sale (30-50% off) so that I don't go over the 100-euro mark. However, I don't think these Elite 3 Puma flagship shoes will be on sale. They are selling fast, so there's no need for retailers to discount them
