FAQs

What is HOVR technology?

HOVR technology is Under Armour's cushioning system designed to provide a combination of impact absorption and energy return, creating a lightweight, 'zero-gravity' feel.

Are these shoes suitable for beginners?

Yes, the Hovr Turbulence Entry is suitable for beginners due to its balance of comfort, cushioning, and support for everyday runs.

How do I know if these shoes are the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Under Armour. Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoes should feel snug but not tight.

Can I wear these shoes for cross-training or gym workouts?

While they offer some support, these shoes are optimized for forward motion on roads. For gym workouts involving lateral movements or heavy lifting, a dedicated training shoe would be more appropriate.

What is the expected lifespan of these running shoes?

The lifespan typically ranges from 300 to 500 miles (500 to 800 kilometers) of running, depending on your running style, weight, and the surfaces you run on. It's recommended to replace them when cushioning feels diminished or wear is evident.

What is the difference between Hovr Turbulence Entry and other Hovr models?

The 'Entry' designation usually indicates a model focused on core benefits like cushioning and support at a more accessible price point, potentially with slightly less advanced materials or features compared to higher-end Hovr series.

Can these shoes be used in wet weather?

The shoes offer reasonable grip on wet roads, but they are not waterproof. They may become saturated in heavy rain. Ensure they are properly dried afterwards to maintain their condition.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring an even distribution of pressure. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if break-in time is needed.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time.

While HOVR technology is durable, cushioning naturally decreases with extensive use. Consider replacement if the shoes have significantly exceeded their expected lifespan (typically 300-500 miles).

Slipping on wet surfaces.

The outsole is designed for road grip, but performance may vary on extremely wet or polished surfaces. Exercise caution and ensure the outsole tread is not worn down.

Feet feel overheated during runs.

Ensure socks are moisture-wicking. The breathable upper is designed for airflow; if overheating persists, consider running in cooler conditions or ensuring the shoes are not too tightly laced.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Brush off loose dirt after each use. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth or a soft brush with mild soap and cold water. Do not machine wash.
