PUMA Men's Disperse Xt 2 Road Running Shoe

Product Information

Due to the upper being so thin, every movement of the toes could be seen, and gave the shoe an odd shape at the front. My first impressions of the Zone XT when unboxing was that the shoe didn’t look as good as I’d hoped. It didn’t feel cushioned or particularly stable, but did the job it said it would, and performed in this type of workout. The insole is made of a singular material and depth spongy foam, which gives some comfort under foot, but flattens easily in areas where there is more weight (ball of the foot and heel). Whether you’re looking for casual everyday trainers, going out trainers or sports trainers, PUMA has a pair for you, with a wide variety of retro and modern styles in a host of colourways and patterns to satisfy your tastes.

As the shoe is designed for indoor classes, this isn’t an issue unless you decide to take it outside. The Puma Disperse XT 2 Mens Trainers are a great addition to your weekend wardrobe, crafted with a shaped ankle collar coupled with a classic lacing system that provides a secure fit.

The upper appeared quite flimsy and I was worried about the durability of the upper, the sole and especially the lines where these units joined. h3> PRODUCT STORY

Take your training day to the next level in the Disperse XT 2 Training Shoes, an update to an inimitable training shoe that sits at the nexus of performance and design. OUR VERDICT The Puma Zone XT is a good HIIT training shoe that provides adequate performance across a range of activities encountered in a HIIT indoor gym class. The Zone XT features a knitted upper, which feels very light, and is one of the most breathable shoes I’ve ever worn.

The sole features a heartbeat design, a nod to the fact these shoes should be worn during activities which raise your heartbeat the most. This ideal shoe would provide support when lifting weights, cushioning on short runs, and stability when it comes to quick changes in direction during explosive speed work. The Zone XT performed OK in all areas of testing for high intensity interval training, I just didn’t love the shoe. This is the only design on the lateral part of the shoe, its very plan other than that, and in comparison to the outside.Great if you don’t want your socks to show but not so great if your socks protect your feet from rubbing.

The Puma Disperse XT 2 Mesh Womens Trainers are a great addition to your casual footwear collection, crafted with a shaped ankle collar coupled with a classic lace fastening that offers a secure fit, while lightweight cushioning to the midsole ensures comfort with every step.

When trying them on the upper around the back of the foot foot felt rough, quite uncomfortable, and there was little padding. For me the shoe felt more on the stable, solid side, with little cushioning, which was great when lifting weight and for bodyweight exercises, but felt very hard under foot when running for longer than a few minutes.
