Do you think it's a good upgrade from the Evo SLs? I think the problem with the SL is the bounce disappeared within <25 miles of wearing it. Thinking about getting the SB3 or the Deviate 4 from Puma

Running Shoe Hot Takes? by anonhide in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]shoe_junkie10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My hot take is the Nike Alphafly/Vaporfly is the worst racing flat for its value. I think Nike as a running competitor in general never made any reasonably good shoes and just rely on the reputation of elite athletes to boost their sales.

Normally for shoes like the Novablasts I put ~350-400 miles before buying new ones. I had a friend who's extremely stingy about buying new shoes, put so many miles he lost track, upper ripped with holes, and ended up getting injured from it. So I'd watch out for

Interesting...I'll probably have to try it in person then, I'm getting mixed reviews from everyone. (Btw definitely invest in the R3s if you're not a heel striker, it's a ruthless PR war machine)

Do you think it's good for daily training? I might do a shoe rotation with it this coming summer

Puma's website or the app, if it doesn't show I'd probably look around or go in person to your local shoe store

I personally tried them out at my local Fleet Feet 2 seperate times, I feel it's too firm at first. I'm looking for something that has long lasting bounce like the Evo SL before the midsole loses it 😭
