FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

Yes, the HOVR cushioning is specifically designed to reduce impact and support the foot during repetitive activity, making them capable of handling distance training.

Can I use these for weightlifting?

While comfortable, they are primarily performance trainers. For heavy lifting, a shoe with a flatter, firmer sole may provide more stability.

How should I clean the black fabric?

Use a gentle soap solution and a soft cloth to spot clean. Do not submerge the shoes in water or use a washing machine.

Is the size fit true to standard UK sizing?

Yes, the sizing follows standard UK adult sizing conventions, offering a performance fit.

Do these shoes provide arch support?

They offer moderate structural support suitable for neutral runners; if you have specific orthotic needs, you may want to consult a specialist.

Troubleshooting

Feeling discomfort after first wear

Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly; the HOVR Phantom is designed for a secure fit that may require minor tightening or loosening to suit your foot shape.

Accumulation of dust in the mesh

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove debris from the breathable mesh upper to maintain consistent airflow.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best performance from your Under Armour HOVR Phantom, start by ensuring you have selected the correct UK size. These shoes are designed with a performance fit, so they should feel snug around the midfoot without causing pressure points.

Care Instructions:

  1. Wipe off loose dirt or mud with a soft, damp cloth after use.
  2. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the foam cushioning.
  3. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
  4. Keep away from harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning agents to preserve the integrity of the textile upper.
