What Buddhist Monks Run In: Where to Buy PUMA NITRO Sneakers
05.09.2026
Puma launched the Meditation in Motion campaign as the official promo for the Ladakh Marathon. The project featured 40 Buddhist monks from Thiksey Monastery (15th century) in the Ladakh region of India.
The campaign is built around the connection between meditation and ultra-distance running: both practices demand intense focus, breath control, and the ability to stay fully present in the moment. The contrast of centuries-old stone steps, traditional dark-maroon robes, and high-tech sneakers made this one of the most visually striking releases in the brand's history.

The Ladakh Marathon is one of the toughest high-altitude races on the planet. The Silk Route Ultra distance (122 km) starts at 3,260 meters above sea level and climbs to the Khardung La pass at 5,370 meters. In the thin mountain air, physical endurance is inseparable from mental resilience and composure.
Puma, the marathon's official sports partner, filmed the campaign on the grounds of the active Thiksey Monastery. The shots capture monks in authentic robes paired with Puma sports socks and running shoes against a backdrop of monumental Himalayan architecture. Remarkably, the sneakers fit into the setting in the most natural way.
What the Monks Run In: Deviate NITRO Series Technology
At the heart of the campaign is the Puma Deviate Pure NITRO running line, designed to balance maximum energy return with natural foot control:
- NITROFOAM midsole: a nitrogen-infused midsole delivers responsive energy return and cushions impact loads while keeping weight low.
- Pure version: the silhouette is optimized for natural running biomechanics and long-distance movement without excessive rigidity.
- PUMAGRIP outsole: an ultra-durable rubber compound provides confident grip on dry rocky terrain, smooth steps, and wet asphalt.
- Breathable Engineered Mesh: a sturdy mesh upper with zonal weaving withstands temperature swings and keeps your foot ventilated.
