FAQs

What makes the Under Armour Flow technology unique?

Flow technology integrates the midsole and outsole into a single unit. This eliminates the need for a traditional rubber outsole, resulting in a lighter, more responsive shoe with excellent grip.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

While they are lightweight and responsive, their suitability for marathons depends on individual preference and running style. They are often favored for shorter to mid-distance races, but some runners may find them comfortable for longer distances if they prioritize a fast, light feel.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The shoe should feel snug around the heel and midfoot, with enough room in the toe box for your toes to wiggle slightly. It's recommended to try them on if possible, as sizing can vary between models and brands.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

The Flow outsole provides grip, but performance in very wet conditions can differ from traditional rubber outsoles. It's advisable to exercise caution on wet surfaces.

What is the main difference between this and previous Velociti models?

The primary difference is the integration of the Flow technology, which offers a distinct ride compared to models that may have used more traditional foam and rubber constructions.

How long does the Flow cushioning typically last?

The durability of the Flow cushioning is designed for significant mileage. However, like all running shoes, longevity depends on factors such as running frequency, weight, running surface, and care.

Troubleshooting

Slight discomfort during initial wears

This can be normal as the Flow technology adapts to your foot. Try wearing them for shorter periods initially and gradually increase duration. Ensure proper lacing for a secure yet not overly tight fit.

Traction feels different than expected

The Flow outsole is designed for specific surfaces. Ensure you are running on appropriate terrain. For wet conditions, traction may vary; exercise caution.

Debris getting stuck in the Flow sole

Small pebbles or debris can sometimes lodge in the sole's grooves. Use a soft brush or a pointed but blunt object (like a toothpick) to carefully dislodge any trapped items.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they fit snugly but comfortably before your first run.

Compatibility: Designed for running on typical road surfaces, treadmills, and tracks. Compatibility with highly abrasive surfaces like concrete or gravel for extended periods may affect outsole longevity.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After runs, gently brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
