Full details

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for competitive running?
The Under Armour Ascend AL Trainers are designed for general training, play, and everyday wear. While they offer good cushioning and support, they are not specialized for high-performance competitive running.
How do I clean the EVA midsole?
The EVA midsole can be cleaned using a soft cloth or brush with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry.
What is the purpose of the midfoot overlays?
The midfoot overlays are designed to provide added durability and support to the middle section of the shoe, a common area of stress during athletic movements.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for cleaning.
What is the benefit of the plush sockliner?
The plush sockliner enhances step-in comfort, providing a soft and cushioned feel against the foot from the moment the shoe is put on.
Are the stretch bungee laces adjustable?
The stretch bungee laces are designed for ease of use and do not offer traditional adjustability. They provide a snug fit suitable for most activities, but may not be ideal for sports requiring a very precise, locked-down fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose
While designed with stretch laces for ease, ensure they are pulled snug. For a tighter fit, consider tucking the laces securely or exploring alternative lacing methods if needed for specific activities.
Mesh upper showing signs of wear
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh scrubbing. For durability, ensure the shoes are used for their intended purpose and not subjected to excessive abrasion.
Outsole losing grip
Clean the outsole with water to remove any dirt or debris that might be affecting traction. If wear is significant, it may be time to consider a replacement pair.
