Product Information

Full details

The Under Armour Charged Assert 10 is designed for adult male runners seeking a versatile, neutral shoe that offers flexibility, cushioning, and durability for everyday runs. Its key benefit lies in the shock-absorbing Charged Cushioning® midsole, which provides responsiveness with every stride. A potential caveat is its suitability primarily for neutral runners, as it may lack specialized support for overpronators. This shoe features a breathable mesh upper, synthetic overlays, an EVA sockliner for comfort, and a solid rubber outsole for targeted durability.

FAQs

What type of runner is the Charged Assert 10 best for?

This shoe is ideal for adult male runners with a neutral gait who need a versatile shoe offering good cushioning, flexibility, and durability for everyday running.

How do I clean my Charged Assert 10 running shoes?

Spot clean with a mild detergent and cold water using a soft brush or cloth. Do not machine wash or soak. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

What is the main benefit of the Charged Cushioning® midsole?

The Charged Cushioning® midsole uses compression-molded foam to provide excellent shock absorption and responsive energy return with each stride, enhancing running comfort and efficiency.

Is this shoe suitable for marathon training?

While the shoe offers good cushioning for daily runs, its durability and support are best suited for shorter to medium-distance training. For marathon distances, runners might prefer shoes with more advanced cushioning systems or higher levels of support.

What is the weight and heel-to-toe drop of this shoe?

The shoe weighs approximately 9.5 oz and has a heel-to-toe offset of 10mm.

Can I use these shoes for gym workouts?

Yes, their lightweight and cushioned design makes them suitable for general gym activities. However, for exercises requiring significant lateral stability, specialized training shoes might be more appropriate.

How durable is the outsole?

The outsole is made of solid rubber and is strategically placed in high-impact zones to enhance durability and reduce weight, providing longevity for the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a snug but not restrictive fit. Experiment with different lacing techniques if needed. Consider wearing them for shorter periods initially to allow them to break in.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time.

The midsole cushioning may naturally degrade after extensive use. If the shoes are old and show signs of wear, it may be time to consider a replacement pair for optimal performance and injury prevention.

Poor grip on wet surfaces.

The solid rubber outsole provides durability but may offer reduced traction on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution when running in wet conditions and ensure the outsole is free of debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning for shock absorption during runs.
  • Breathable upper keeps feet comfortable and cool.
  • Durable outsole designed for high-impact zones.
  • Versatile for various types of runs and neutral runners.
  • Lightweight design enhances running experience.

Cons

  • May not provide adequate support for runners who overpronate.
  • Standard tie lacing might require periodic adjustment.
  • Primarily suited for road running; may not offer optimal grip on varied terrain.
  • The 10mm offset might not suit runners preferring a lower drop.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure proper lacing for a secure fit before your first run. The standard tie lace system allows for adjustment to your preference.

Compatibility: The Charged Assert 10 is designed as a neutral running shoe, best suited for runners with a neutral gait. It performs optimally on road surfaces, treadmills, and other firm, even terrains. It is not specifically designed for trail running or sports requiring lateral support.

Care: To maintain the performance and appearance of your Charged Assert 10s:

  • Cleaning: Spot clean with a mild detergent and cold water using a soft brush or cloth. Avoid machine washing or soaking.
  • Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Remove insoles and laces to dry separately if heavily soiled or wet.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid extreme temperatures.
  • Break-in: While designed for immediate comfort, a short break-in period of a few easy runs is recommended to fully adapt the shoe to your foot.
