The heel overall was little loose for me, but unlike Matt I had no issues with the heel collar while wearing low-cut socks.
The opening to the shoe is a touch narrow and the heel counter a bit rigid and uncooperative at helping the feet go into the shoe, but there's a lot of stretch to the upper opening around the tongue to help widen the shoe and get in. Anyone with a wider foot may want to half size up. The shoe itself runs true to size, though is a bit narrow through the midfoot. Overall the upper is fairly flexible with just a little structure, requiring extra lock down for some and socks for all.īach: I received a pair half sized up of the Deviate Nitro. They stayed secure, but the pressure into my ankle is noticeable the first mile of runs. The laces are a bit thin, so when lace locking the shoe they dug into my ankle a little on my right side. The tongue is gusseted and has additional padding, so it stays in place very well. There is additional padding around the heel counter for security, however this did not prevent my heel from slipping.

With socks I was fine, but without had skin irritation fairly quickly. The heel collar has a slightly sharp edge to it, which required me to wear socks with this upper as it dug into my ankle. I did not have any trouble with my calcani in response to them. There is a split heel counter in the rearfoot and the counters are fairly flexible. The heel fits loose and required me to lace lock the shoe to prevent slippage. The lightweight mesh fits normal to slightly wide in the heel, with a normal fit in the midfoot and a taper in the forefoot. I would only suggest going down a half size if you have narrow feet as the toe box tapers enough that it almost feels true to size. Matt: The Puma Deviate Nitro fits me slightly long in my normal US men's size 10.
