MixedOne tester loved it. One tester (C) won't keep running in it: the fit, ride and stability don't work for him. Another tester (C+): slappy transitions and a low-volume midfoot make it a no-go. A third tester (A-) enjoyed it and keeps it for everyday training.

PositiveScores 9.46 (one tester) and 9.75 (another tester): an upper beyond reproach for comfort and hold, and fantastic durability that makes the $150 'feel like a steal'.

Positive'Puma did it!' A legit light stability/guidance trainer on par with the Tempus, Kayano and Arahi. Even neutral one tester enjoyed his miles; pronators have a new option.

PositiveOne of her favorite daily trainers: efficient yet comfortable, with a gusseted tongue, a guidance system molded around the heel, dual-density Nitro foam and grippy protective rubber.

PositiveThe ForeverRun Nitro was very comfortable and stable with an amazing outsole, but they returned it for running small.

PositiveEasy runs from about 10K to 10 miles by two testers, including light trail and wet roads. They found a plush, comfortable shoe with subtle stability and a very grippy outsole, though one found the roomy fit needed the laces pulled tight and one got small stones caught in the forefoot outsole holes. One dislikes the look, and neither found it a versatile all-rounder at pace. Good for easy and long days and for newer runners.

PositiveFound the ForeverRun Nitro more comfortable than the Saucony Tempus, which pressed into their arch.
Most runners find the PUMA ForeverRun Nitro a comfortable, cushioned and mildly stable daily trainer that suits easy and recovery runs. The main downside is durability, with the foam dying or glue and toe box wearing out for some. Heel slip and running small came up in a couple of reviews.
