Puma x HYROX Men's Deviate Nitro Elite 4 - Black/Vibrant Yellow

The PUMA x HYROX Men's Deviate NITRO™ Elite 4 – Black/Vibrant Yellow is a lightweight, carbon-plated performance shoe engineered specifically for the unique demands of HYROX training and competition. Combining PUMA's premium NITROFOAM™ ELITE cushioning, a full-length carbon-fiber PWRPLATE, and a full-coverage PUMAGRIP outsole, this race-ready HYROX shoe delivers the responsiveness, propulsion, stability, and traction athletes need to move efficiently between running intervals and functional fitness stations.

Created as part of the performance-focused PUMA x HYROX collection, the Deviate NITRO™ Elite 4 brings elite running-shoe technology to hybrid fitness racing. At approximately 194g in a UK size 8, its exceptionally lightweight construction helps keep turnover quick and efficient while providing the cushioning and support needed as mileage and fatigue accumulate throughout a HYROX race.

The bold PUMA Black/Vibrant Yellow colorway gives the shoe an unmistakable competition-ready look. A sleek black foundation combines with energetic Vibrant Yellow accents for high-visibility athletic style that matches the speed-focused personality of this elite HYROX racer.

At the heart of the shoe is PUMA's advanced NITROFOAM™ ELITE compound. This premium nitrogen-infused performance foam is engineered for maximum energy return, lightweight responsiveness, and increased stability. The responsive cushioning helps maintain an energetic stride through repeated running intervals while providing the protection needed for high-intensity competition.

Embedded within the midsole is a full-length carbon-fiber PWRPLATE. Featuring an updated shape and refined flexibility, the plate is designed to maximize energy transfer and propulsion while creating a more consistent, supportive ride. Whether accelerating out of a workout station or settling back into race pace, the PWRPLATE helps translate effort into efficient forward movement.

Underfoot, the Deviate NITRO™ Elite 4 features an all-new full-coverage PUMAGRIP outsole with a turf-specific lug design. This traction-focused configuration provides dependable grip across the varied surfaces encountered during HYROX training and competition, helping athletes move confidently through fast transitions and demanding race-day efforts.

A substantial 40mm heel and 32mm forefoot stack creates max cushioning with an 8mm heel-to-toe drop. This geometry delivers generous impact protection while maintaining the responsive, forward-moving sensation expected from an elite performance shoe.

The lightweight upper provides secure performance without unnecessary bulk and is constructed with at least 30% recycled materials. A traditional lace-up closure allows athletes to personalize their lockdown, while the regular-width platform provides a performance-focused fit.

For athletes searching for men's HYROX shoes, carbon-plated HYROX racing shoes, or lightweight footwear capable of handling the demands of running and functional fitness in one competition, the PUMA x HYROX Men's Deviate NITRO™ Elite 4 – Black/Vibrant Yellow is built to perform when every kilometer, station, transition, and second counts.
