PUMA FAST-R NITRO ELITE - INITIAL REVIEW - A MARATHON BEAST OR A STRANGE DESIGN MISTAKE? - EDDBUD
An initial review of the recently released PUMA FAST-R NITRO ELITE
A shoe sent to me from PUMA for review yet they are not vetting my views and will have no input into my honest opinions here.
A wild new design idea and aesthetic, does it work though? Nitro Elite foam in the forefoot and firmer EVA in the rear, no midsole in the arch!
I found the shoe works well for me in a TEMPO NEXT% kind of fashion, but the narrow forefoot wont be for everyone.
I comment on the upper, midsole and outsole after my initial efforts.

I been watching shoetubers for about 3years now. I'd have to say edd is the realest. He is honest and funny.
Most entertaining by a mile.
I am what I am Josh. Ask my wife. 🤣
Edd the man. A You Tuber who you could have a pint and a chat with.
Ed is totally awesome. Someday when I get to England, he's buying me several pints of beer. 🍻
Can’t yet work this one out yet - did a 26km workout, agree it does feel rather tight around the forefoot and wonder for a marathon it might be too much. Agree lockdown is excellent. I found the firmer heel kept you on your toes though, good if you strike mid foot. I may risk it for London
It does push you up on the midfoot. Almost trains you to keep on the toes
Excellent ed 👍 , loving how your putting in the width off the toe box ( wide foot ) big thanks for that ed 👊 , have to look for the eels to 👍
Love this shoe! And I’m a trail runner here in rugged Colorado (just raced a 50-miler yesterday with 10,000’ of vertical ascent). But my weekly track run is benefiting from the FastR. The ride is smooth, the upper amazing as you point out. And the grip is exceptional! Glad you’re feeling better -
Thanks Troy! The outsole is unmatched. What makes it so grippy? The material? The pattern? Either way it’s superb!
Recently bought my first pair of Pumas (after 30 years of running), the Deviate Nitro. Blown away by the shoe. Apart from some minor Achilles rubbing, I have nothing but a positive impression. I’d definitely buy them again, possibly the Deviate Nitro 2s when they’re available . I’m intrigued by the Puma Fast-R Nitro elite. It sounds like a very good alternative to the usual Nike Next % super shoe purchase. I’d definitely try them for a marathon.
If you like those you will love the nitro elite. 👍🏼
I have the OG colourway, but from the production models that launched in Europe (as I can't run for sh*t) rather than promo, and it's the same outsole so they obvs switched it up in-between. Also just had to check if I have the Tongue Rocket - delighted to confirm that OG colourway has it too. Love your attention to detail Edd.
I love the little rocket. My son found it!
Great review Ed I will need to try these
I'm getting more and more Puma curious but remain innocent so far. This one seems impossible to actually get ahold of, but your comments especially on the outsole got my attention.
Thanks for the review. It sounds like this one isn’t for me with my slightly wider feet
Yes I can see that lateral side being an issue.
Daisy's of the galaxy was the first album I ever bought - still listen it regularly
It’s a tremendous listen. Wonderful songs and subtle feel
Wasn't on my radar. But my interest is piqued. Puma are really putting out some interesting shoes. Thanks for the great review.
They have a unique quirky take on everything which I like!
Great review......great band......great album and a horrendous looking shoe....thanks Edd.
I quite like it from a kid in a sweet shop vibe.
@@EDDBUD ....yes it does have that Woolworths 'hundreds and thousands' thing going on which you may be too young to know....may I say on this occasion your taste in music far outweighs the liking of that colour scheme......have a great day.
I got this one on the small EU release in February/March and have to say I didn't love the ride. And it has a very narrow fit and is rather heavy.
Not sure I found it heavy. Certainly narrow
This shoes looks good and I would be all over it in the January sales and some Christmas money, but the toe-box width puts me off sadly. Otherwise I agree entirely having bought a couple of Puma shoes recently, PumaGrip is great and the nitro foam is ace.
Pumagrip could be good on guitar stands.
The shoes are insane. Fantastic shoe box. Shoes have great potential. Bravo Puma! However, my ranking of the fastest shoes is: 1 - Nike Vaporfly 2 -, AAP 3 - Puma FAST-R. I would like to add that I run in all these shoes. Greetings from Poland P.S. I watch every new episode regularly
Many thanks for watching! Enjoying these pumas so far. Do want to test the Adios pro 3 though also.
@@EDDBUD
Cool! We are counting down the hours to the marathon in Berlin! It will be a great celebration for us running fans! I think Eliud Kipchoge will win, but he won't break two hours. I don't know what shoes he will run in? However, many competitors will definitely run AAP 3 - this is such a successful combination of AAP2 and Prime X :)
Yes please! Very interested to hear how you get along with the heel on it.
What an exciting looking shoe!
Nice! I couldn’t get into this one! Deviate Nitro Elite seems more suitable. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Mr Chin would approve! Stick it in the living room of an evening and save some money not needing the big light on💡
It’s almost radioactive! Hope Denzil washed his hands.
@@EDDBUD 🤣 "You said it was open 24 hours a day!"... "Yeah but not at night"
Tracksmith! You're a Serious Runner now Edd! 😄
I am seriously enjoying running. Not sure I’m a serious runner yet. The shorts just classify in my wife’s eyes as “appropriate”
Rocking the Tracksmith!
😎
Hi Ed…interesting review. May be I will get a pair to try it out. Have been running with the Saucony Endorphin Pro 3 the last few weeks. this is definitely a serious competitor to the Vaporfly. Each and every run I tried to slow down and I thought I did (at least by perceived effort I did 😮) but my watch was telling me otherwise. This is a deceptively fast shoe, not quite the crazy snappiness of the Alphafly but it is a great shoe to run in 👍
The pro 3 from Saucony is my current shoe of the year. Well, one of them!
The Pro 3 is so good I put the Speed 3 on hold 😅
Did either of you find the Endo Pro short? I’m asking bc I’ve been wearing the Endo Speed in my marathons and HM’s and in v3 I definitely prefer the Pro, which I tried on in a store in San Diego a couple of weeks ago. But they only had a 9.5 for me to try, and it didn’t really feel that big on me. The staff person thought a 9 might be too short even if they’d had it.
Lucky got a 30% discount code from their app for challenges completed in the year. The nitro I’m a uk12 and in this fast-R im fitting a uk11, generally go for a UK11.5 and have size uk10.5 feet
Did experiment with a 10.5 in the deviate nitro elite. This one seems ideal in the 11.
Also the insole is very thick in the fast-r so if it’s a little tight you can easily remove and stick another one in. Inov-8 boomerang insole are great
Also also: Eels get a firm thumbs up. Goddamn right it's a beautiful day
Fresh feeling is another top tune from them. so many good songs
@@EDDBUD Everett did get a little 'Eels by numbers' though but yes some absolute gems tucked away. Prize Fighter from Hombre Loco always raises a smile
Got these for £105 in the sale last week... One shoe red... The other blue.. Had to try them for that reason alone 😂
That’s a good price for the fast r. Aggressive shoe and good for 10k
Same! Got it at 103 pounds only 😅 although was keen kn Saucony Endorphine Elite still but they are not on sale yet
I have used them for a 5k and 10k so far very happy with them for just over £100 bargain 😀
Do you know if the puma athletes are wearing them in races?
Not sure if they are. But I might
@@EDDBUD they do. Hendrik Pfeiffer, german marathoner and Puma athlete uses them
Great review Ed... but is it fast r than the Vap r fly .. at 5K? 🤔😁
At 5k i feel the difference is less.
Thanks Edd! UMmnow this or the Sen 8!?
Very different ride. The sen is very light weight compared. Sleeker design and more feel underfoot.
Also: kudos for the Tracksmith top!
It’s a lovely number. Wearing it at a gig in-fact it’s so comfortable.
looks great
Tracksmith 👍
Would going up half size elevate the pinky rub?
It’s very possible. Length wise might just add a little extra room.
Love the ‘fruit salad’ colourway
It’s 80’s sweet shop all the way
These are available in my area now. Are they worth the money edd?
If you want a fast racer yes. It’s the alphafly of the Puma world.
@@EDDBUDi agree, puma fast nitro r elite and my alpha are not beside each other. Need to try out the puma hopefully tomorrow hehe
If you had to choose between the Deviate Nitro Elite and these ones, what would be your she of choice?
Now that’s the question! I do love the simplicity of the deviate nitro elite and would still opt for that perhaps over this.
Looks soooo good
Thoughts on the Puma Fast-Roid
Did cover it in one of the last videos.
And as tag inside shoe states, “no drafting necessary”
Yes. Very odd little details!
Off-topic here. One long-awaited review of adios pro 3 seems to be missing…
Yes I held off whilst unable to eat, sleep and run. Will pick them up this week 👍🏼👊
First? Where to watch Berlin tomorrow Ed?
🥈 Berlin hopefully on tv in the morning!
@@EDDBUD greets from Berlin🙋♂️ looking forward Eliud 🏃♂️ live!😍
@@EDDBUD Where in the UK can we watch it
Looks a little like split-sole lace-up dance sneakers🤔
Yes my wife has some exactly like this. She commented that exact thing when I got them out the box.
Nice. How many miles do you see it lasting for?
That’s a hard task to estimate. Maybe the typical super shoe 300 ish
Narrow fit - good (for me). Lack of any sign of a UK 13 not so good so am out here at the moment although for that price maybe blessing in disguise. Must say never really understand Puma strategy with their top end races shoes. Just checked Puma UK and Start Fitness and basically sold out in all sizes and don't think was ever available anywhere else in the UK. Was the same with the Deviate Nitro Elite. So I kind of feel if they want them to appeal to more runners probably need to concentrate on making some before making them wider. The price and looks does make it look more like a hype beast shoe. For that price does it really compete with the Nike, Saucony and adidas offerings in actual race conditions. And if you can use a shoe for a half marathon why not a full one?
Seems to be on sale in a number of places on my Google search. No hype on this one. A really nice smooth ride.
@@EDDBUD if you spot a UK 13 please let me know
Are you a heel or forefoot runner? Cause that would make the shoe landing and response feel different.
Midfoot. It’s a lovely smooth ride.
@@EDDBUD 👍🏼 I've been intrigued by this shoe and have wanted to try it for a while now.
I'm not a fan of the middle part the sole of the shoe, it looks kinda of ugly, the rest looks fine.
I quite like it. Then again I liked the Puma Ultraride a great deal
...Quite narrow forefoot... Music to my ears !
Could be a perfect fit!
A tempo shoe for a racing shoe price. Hmm.
Tempo shoe? It’s great for racing. Maybe not marathon but everything else
Narrow in the forefoot eh…. damn gonna have to pass
Looks like a low top basketball shoe
Certainly does!
Hi
🥇
damn
🥉
I’m late putting the boy to bed. ….The pirates favourite super shoe….
🤣
