Full details

The Under Armour UA Apparition Tech is a modern revival of a classic 2009 silhouette designed for active kids who need reliable everyday footwear. By combining authentic retro aesthetics with contemporary UA HOVR cushioning technology, these trainers offer an excellent balance of impact protection and energy return for school or play. While the shoe features high-quality materials and added durability, users should note that the dual-tone mesh design requires consistent cleaning to maintain its original appearance.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they feature authentic running shoe design elements, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for everyday activity.

How do I know if the size is right?

There should be approximately a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.

Can I put these in the dryer?

No. Excessive heat can permanently damage the HOVR foam cushioning and the structural integrity of the upper.

Are the materials waterproof?

The upper is made of breathable mesh, which is not waterproof and may absorb moisture in heavy rain.

What is the primary benefit of UA HOVR?

UA HOVR provides a 'zero gravity' feel, reducing impact and returning energy to the wearer with every step.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt accumulation on the mesh

Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a soft toothbrush with mild soap to gently scrub the mesh fibers.

Insoles feel worn down

The sockliner can be removed and replaced with a high-quality third-party orthotic if extra arch support is needed.

Outsole loses traction

Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove grit or debris that may interfere with surface grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your UA Apparition Tech trainers remain in optimal condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fit Check: Ensure the size UK 4 fits comfortably with a small amount of wiggle room for the toes to prevent cramping.
  2. Routine Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh and overlays. For deeper cleaning, apply a mild soap with cold water using a cloth; avoid submerging the shoes in a washing machine.
  3. Drying: Air dry the trainers at room temperature. Never place them in a direct heat source, such as a radiator or dryer, as this can warp the materials and damage the cushioning foam.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation or fading.
