FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for outdoor basketball?
The Under Armour Curry 13 is designed primarily for indoor court performance. The UA Flow outsole provides excellent grip on clean indoor surfaces but may wear down faster and offer less traction on abrasive outdoor courts.
How do I clean the UA Flow outsole?
To clean the UA Flow outsole, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris. For tougher grime, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by rinsing with a clean, damp cloth. Always air dry.
What is the main benefit of the UA HOVR+ midsole?
The full-length UA HOVR+ midsole provides a combination of cushioning for comfort and energy return, helping to reduce impact and enhance responsiveness during play.
Can these shoes be worn for other sports or activities?
While designed for basketball, the supportive and cushioned nature of the Curry 13 may offer comfort for other athletic activities. However, their specialized traction pattern is optimized for court sports, and performance may vary for other activities.
What does 'de-coupled outsole' mean?
A de-coupled outsole means the outsole is designed with distinct sections rather than being a single solid piece. This design enhances flexibility and allows for a better court feel, enabling more natural foot movement.
How does the EVA splash cage enhance performance?
The EVA splash cage wraps around the foot to provide lateral support and stability, crucial for preventing ankle rolls during quick cuts, jumps, and changes in direction.
What is the weight of the Curry 13 trainers?
The Under Armour Curry 13 trainers weigh approximately 12.4 ounces, contributing to their lightweight feel during gameplay.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly without over-tightening. Consider if a half-size up might be more suitable if the tightness persists.
Reduced traction on certain surfaces
The UA Flow outsole is optimized for clean indoor courts. If traction is reduced on dusty or outdoor surfaces, clean the outsole with a damp cloth and allow it to dry thoroughly. Consider using a dedicated shoe cleaner for basketball shoes if needed.
Upper material feels restrictive
This is often due to the supportive nature of the EVA splash cage. Ensure the laces are adjusted to allow for foot flex. The material is designed to offer support, and may loosen slightly with continued wear.
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure you are tying a secure knot. Consider double-knotting the laces if they tend to loosen during activity.
