Okay, everybody. We're with Todd, who's
0:02
the product lead at Puma Running, and
0:05
we're back together here at TR for some
0:07
more marvels. Go for it, Todd.
0:10
We're really excited. So, this is MagMax
0:12
2. Um, and we're actually, it's already
0:14
on market like December of this year.
0:16
So, we're really, really love it. People
0:18
loved the first MagMax, like you
0:21
wouldn't believe. Um, so it was a little
0:22
bit of a challenge even from a briefing
0:24
perspective of how do we improve it, but
0:27
not change it too much. And we kept so
0:29
many things basically the same. Um,
0:31
still a great engineered mesh upper,
0:33
nice knit tongue. Um, really, really
0:35
good comfort. The stack height's the
0:36
same. A lot of the geometry is similar.
0:38
I think really the only main two kind of
0:41
updates. One is we made the foam just a
0:43
little bit softer. Um, in our relentless
0:46
improvement uh goal of making Nitro the
0:49
best foam in the in the game. So, we
0:50
made it a little bit better and that
0:52
kind of makes the whole shoe about 20 g
0:54
lighter. We went from 290 down to 270 g.
0:58
Still rubber everywhere you need it.
1:00
Removed a little bit and really really
1:02
smart and good design.
1:03
The foam itself is what type of foam?
1:05
Yeah, so this is a Pax blend um but the
1:08
same exact one as previous just a
1:10
different durometer.
1:10
Durometer and that made it lighter.
1:12
Yeah, made it lighter and softer. Yeah,
1:14
we really wanted to sink in um and feel
1:16
that max cushion. And I think for um you
1:18
know, let's say bigger people like it
1:20
was good. I think one of our goals was
1:22
to hit that middle of the bell curve. So
1:24
really smaller people, bigger people,
1:26
everyone in the middle will get that
1:27
same cushion and feel. Um, particularly
1:30
women, I think, will will really
1:32
appreciate this update.
1:33
I' I've enjoyed running in them. They're
1:35
very good. Yeah. Yeah, they're very
1:36
good.
1:37
Yeah, that's amazing. I still haven't
1:38
worn
1:38
I did have version one, so
1:39
I still haven't worn out my first
1:40
version.
1:42
Keep going. Keep going.
1:43
That's okay. But yeah, really, really
1:44
excited. So this is at $180 and it's out
1:48
now.
