User Review Summary
The Puma MagMax Nitro 2 is a maximum-cushioning daily trainer built on a Nitro foam midsole. Its 30/40mm stack with a 10mm drop provides a generous, heel-biased cushioning layer that substantially reduces leg fatigue on long outings and long-distance training. The nitrogen foam combines a soft landing with good rebound, so despite the high stack it never feels ponderous. At around 280g it is lightweight for a max-cushion shoe. The upper uses breathable mesh to stay comfortable over long wear. It suits daily jogging, daily training, light exercise, fitness and long-distance work, and is especially recommended for runners who frequently cover long distances, want maximum cushioning and protection, or run high daily volume.
