Puma Faas 350 S Shoe Review

Here’s what Runners’ World had to say about the PUMA Faas 350 S

“Low-slung and responsive, the Faas 350 S is a no-frills training shoe capable of pulling double duty for faster-paced workouts and long runs. The foam rubber midsole is exposed, while only a minimum amount of outsole is used to keep the shoe lightweight and super flexible. One drawback: limited traction. Wear-testers said the 350 S slips on wet surfaces.

Faster runners appreciated how the shoe performed. “The Faas 350 would be among my choices if I were to buy only one shoe for everyday training,” says Ulrich Fluhme, 37, of New York City, who has a 2:33 marathon PR and primarily trains in racing flats.”
