Puma Fast-R Nitro Elite 3 - Ekiden

Puma Fast-R Nitro Elite 3 - Ekiden

The Puma Fast-R Nitro Elite 3 in the Ekiden colorway, inspired by Japan's celebrated long-distance relay tradition. It's Puma's lightest carbon-plate racing shoe, built for runners chasing PRs from 10K to the marathon, pairing NITRO Elite PEBA foam with a full-length PWRPLATE carbon fiber plate for aggressive, energy-returning propulsion.

The ULTRAWEAVE 2.0 upper is lighter and more breathable than its predecessor, while the PUMAGRIP Lite outsole keeps weight to a minimum without sacrificing road traction — one of the lightest race-day shoes available.
