Full details

The Under Armour Nova SlipSpeed Trainers are designed for active kids seeking both comfort and performance during training and recovery. Their key benefit is the combination of responsive cushioning and a convertible heel for versatility, though the bungee lacing may require occasional tightening for a secure fit. These trainers feature a lightweight mesh upper, a bootie design for a sock-like feel, a speed lace system, a durable rubberized toe cap, and UA HOVR™ cushioning for impact reduction and energy return. The innovative SlipSpeed™ convertible heel easily transitions between training and recovery modes, all supported by a durable rubber outsole for reliable traction.

FAQs

How do I adjust the speed lace system?

Simply pull the lace ends to tighten the fit and press the toggle to release tension for loosening. The system is designed for quick adjustments without traditional tying.

What is the purpose of the SlipSpeed™ convertible heel?

The SlipSpeed™ heel can be collapsed to allow for easy slip-on and slip-off wear, perfect for quick changes or casual use. When upright, it provides a more secure fit suitable for training activities.

Are these shoes suitable for all types of sports?

These trainers are best suited for general athletic activities, training, and everyday wear. While they offer good traction, they are not specialized for high-impact or sport-specific needs like basketball or soccer cleats.

How do I know the correct UK size for my child?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer or Under Armour. It is recommended to measure your child's foot length and compare it with the chart, as shoe sizes can vary between brands.

Can the bungee laces be replaced?

While the bungee laces are integrated, they are designed for durability. If they show signs of significant wear, it may be necessary to consult with the retailer or manufacturer for replacement options or guidance.

What is the primary benefit of the UA HOVR™ cushioning?

UA HOVR™ cushioning provides a combination of soft impact absorption and responsive energy return, helping to reduce fatigue and enhance the feeling of 'lighter' movement during activity.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too loose after a short period.

The bungee laces may need to be tightened. Adjust the speed lace toggle to secure the fit more firmly.

Heel counter is difficult to collapse or flip.

Ensure there is no debris trapped in the mechanism. Gently flex the heel to re-seat it. The system is designed for easy manipulation once broken in.

Material appears dirty easily.

The translucent mesh offers a unique look but can attract dirt. Follow the recommended spot cleaning instructions with a damp cloth to maintain appearance.

Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time.

Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities that exceed their intended performance parameters. Follow care instructions to maintain material integrity and cushioning performance.

Pros and Cons

  • Comfortable and secure fit due to the bootie construction and speed lace system.
  • Energy-returning cushioning enhances performance and reduces fatigue.
  • Durable construction with a rubberized toe cap for longevity.
  • Easy for kids to put on and take off.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers feature a bungee speed lace system and a convertible heel. To put them on, loosen the speed laces and slide the foot in. Adjust the laces for a snug fit. To engage the SlipSpeed™ feature, push down on the heel counter to collapse it for easier slip-on/off wear, or keep it upright for a more secure training fit.

Compatibility: Designed for unisex kids, suitable for a range of athletic and casual activities. They perform well on various surfaces including indoor courts, outdoor tracks, and general playground environments.

Care: To clean, use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away dirt from the upper and outsole. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and cushioning. Allow shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat sources.
