Its key benefit lies in the superior UA Flow cushioning for comfort and ground feel, combined with a secure BOA fit system.

FAQs
How do I adjust the BOA fit system for the first time?
To tighten, turn the dial clockwise until you achieve a secure and comfortable fit. To loosen, pull the dial outwards and then adjust.
Can I really put these shoes in the washing machine?
Yes, they are machine washable. It is recommended to use a laundry bag and wash them on a cold, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Always air dry.
What is the 'convertible heel' feature for?
The convertible heel allows you to switch between 'run mode' for a secure, performance fit and 'recover mode' for a more relaxed, slip-on style.
Are these shoes suitable for hiking?
While they offer good traction, they are primarily designed for athletic training and daily wear. For rugged hiking, dedicated hiking boots may be more appropriate.
How do I clean the white ripstop upper?
For minor dirt, a damp cloth with mild soap is effective. For a full clean, machine washing on a cold, gentle cycle is recommended. Air dry.
What is the benefit of the Iso-Chill interior?
The Iso-Chill technology is designed to help dissipate body heat, making the interior feel cooler and more comfortable against the skin.
Do I need special socks with these shoes?
No special socks are required. They are compatible with most standard athletic socks. The Iso-Chill interior can provide comfort even with thinner socks.
Troubleshooting
BOA dial is difficult to turn
Ensure laces are not overly tangled. Try pulling the dial out slightly while turning. If debris is present, clean the dial area gently with a soft brush.
Heel converter is stiff
Gently work the heel back and forth to loosen it. Ensure no debris is obstructing the mechanism. Avoid forcing it to prevent damage.
Shoes are not drying properly
Ensure they are not packed too tightly and have adequate airflow. Consider stuffing them with newspaper to absorb moisture. Avoid using a clothes dryer.
Iso-Chill interior feels less cool
Ensure the interior is clean and free of dirt or sweat buildup, which can affect performance. Proper washing as per care instructions should restore effectiveness.
