Full details

FAQs
How do I clean the Under Armour SlipSpeed Mega shoes?
You can machine wash them on a gentle cycle with cold water. Use a laundry bag for protection and air dry them afterward. Do not use bleach or tumble dry.
What is the main advantage of the BOA Fit System?
The BOA Fit System allows for quick, precise, and secure adjustments to the shoe's fit with a simple turn of a dial, offering a personalized lockdown.
Can I use these shoes for long-distance running?
While they offer excellent cushioning and comfort, they are primarily designed for training, cross-training, and shorter runs. For dedicated long-distance running, specialized running shoes might be more appropriate.
How does the convertible heel work?
The heel can be manually adjusted to provide a secure, locked-in feel for performance activities or flipped back to allow for easy slip-on/off functionality for recovery or casual wear.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The shoes feature a breathable ripstop upper that offers some resistance to light moisture but are not designed to be fully waterproof.
What is the Iso-Chill technology?
Iso-Chill is a technology integrated into the interior padding that helps dissipate heat from your foot, providing a cool-to-the-touch sensation for enhanced comfort.
How durable is the ripstop upper?
The ripstop material is engineered for durability and resistance to tearing and abrasion, making it suitable for demanding training sessions.
Troubleshooting
BOA dial is stiff or difficult to turn
Ensure there are no obstructions around the dial. Try cleaning the dial area with a dry brush. If the issue persists, the system may require professional inspection.
Convertible heel is stuck in one position
Check for debris that might be blocking the mechanism. Gently try to maneuver the heel. Avoid excessive force. If it remains stuck, contact customer support.
Shoes are not drying properly after washing
Ensure the shoes are not in direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing them with dry paper towels can help absorb excess moisture. Allow ample time for air drying.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
While UA FLOW cushioning is durable, performance can be affected by heavy wear. Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities they are not designed for, and follow cleaning instructions to maintain material integrity.
