Mens Fast-FWD Nitro Elite Ekiden – Rush Lime

Go faster for longer with the Puma‘s Fast-R Nitro Elite – equipped with everything Puma has to offer and then some. The lightweight uppers are constructed with synthetic mono mesh, reinforced with PWRTAPE placements in high-wear areas which avoids adding unnecessary weight. The heel features a unique TPU tail fin, which helps both manage airflow and just plain looks cool!

Another point of visual speed is the two-part midsole, which exposes the PWRPLATE composite energy return system and cuts even more weight. By using their proprietary NITRO Elite foam, weight is already kept to a minimum but by removing extra material it takes things to the next level. This thinking is continued with the PUMAGRIP-LT rubber outsole, which keeps your stuck to the road without adding unnecessary weight.

Ekiden Edition

“Ekiden” (駅伝) is a Japanese word which refers to the unique sport of long-distance relay racing. Ekiden could be roughly translated as ”station to station”. The original meaning of the word is reflected in race rules, where each runner at the end of their run has to pass a purple sash to the next runner.

Limited to 1000 pairs, this limited edition release features a special badge and purple taping which represents the sash passed during the Ekiden race.
