There are certain criteria that all runners should look for when choosing running shoes: we’re talking features like comfort, performance, ride quality, the fit of the shoe and other elements that allow you to run your best, no matter the distance or your ability. The new From Runners World for Technogym – the latest release in PUMA’s award-winning and much-loved Velocity Nitro range – ticks all these boxes, and adds a dose of innovation into the mix, too.

Here, we consider four reasons why the From Runners World for Technogym might be your ideal training partner.

    1) It takes comfort seriously

    To achieve peak performance, comfort is key; no one can run and train well when distracted by the niggles of discomfort that a bad shoe can bring. Thankfully, the From Runners World for Technogym places comfort high on the priority list and features even more of the impressive NITRO™ technology that made the previous iteration of this shoe so good. The midsole has an extra two millimetres of PUMA’s innovative NITROFOAM™ (its nitrogen-infused foam technology), which helps the shoe to feel both highly cushioned and responsive, delivering a premium feeling.

    It’s not just the midsole foam that makes this a really comfortable shoe. To ensure optimum comfort and fit, PUMA has updated the heel counter to be extra plush and cushioned (without being bulky) and redesigned the tongue and laces so that the shoe encases the foot for a reassuring and stable fit.

    2) It's a do-it-all shoe

      This is a shoe designed for all: no matter whether you’re training for a marathon or a mile around the block, the NITROFOAM™ provides that extra boost of energy and bounce that moves you closer to that coveted PB. This is a shoe for every distance and ability, helping every run feel a little more effortless – consider it your new everyday running partner.

        3) It scores big on grip

        The Velocity NITRO 3 uses PUMAGrip on the outsole (found on many of the NITRO range) and for good reason; this lightweight rubber outsole provides excellent traction even in the wet and offers runners that much-needed confidence to move a little faster – even when the elements conspire against you.

          4) It combines style with industry-leading function

          There’s often a trade-off between design and function in running shoes, where performance details are neglected over aesthetics. Thankfully, this hasn’t happened with the From Runners World for Technogym. While the outside appearance says ‘good-looking running shoe’, details like the bespoke PWRTAPE lining embedded into the upper on the medial side of shoe – which adds targeted support and structure to an area prone to stress – is a clear indicator that performance has been thoughtfully prioritised throughout the design.

          If you’re looking for a running shoe you can simply lace up and get your training done, safe in the knowledge that your shoes won’t let you down, then the From Runners World for Technogym is a great choice for you.
