FAQs

What type of running is this shoe best for?

These trainers are best for everyday runs on road surfaces, offering comfort and energy return for various distances.

Can I use these shoes in the rain?

They are suitable for any climate and can handle dry conditions well. While they offer some protection, they are primarily designed for road running and may not provide optimal grip in extremely wet or slippery conditions.

How do I clean my Halo Racer trainers?

Gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents. Allow them to air dry naturally away from heat sources.

Is the insole removable?

Yes, the insole is removable, allowing you to replace it with custom orthotics or a different insole if desired.

What is the primary cushioning technology used?

The shoes feature UA HOVR™+ cushioning, designed to reduce impact, return energy, and help propel you forward.

What does the 'nylon propulsion plate' do?

The nylon propulsion plate is integrated to add support to the shoe and assist with explosive take-offs during your run.

What is the shoe's weight and offset?

The weight is approximately 12.1 oz, and the offset (heel-to-toe drop) is 5mm.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or loose.

Adjust the lacing to achieve a secure but comfortable fit. Ensure the tongue is positioned correctly. If the fit is consistently problematic, consider trying a different size or width.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time.

The cushioning materials may naturally break down after extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not being overused beyond their intended lifespan. Check for debris in the midsole.

Slipping on wet surfaces.

The rubber outsole is designed for road traction; performance in extremely wet conditions may be reduced. Proceed with caution on wet surfaces and consider alternative footwear for very slick conditions.

  • Designed for multi-climate use on road surfaces.
  • Supportive design aids in guiding the stride.

Cons

  • May not offer optimal grip in very wet or muddy conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. Simply remove them from the packaging and insert your preferred socks. The standard tie lace type allows for easy adjustment to your preferred fit.

Compatibility: The Halo Racer is best suited for road running surfaces. It is compatible with most weather conditions, performing optimally in dry climates. The removable insole allows for compatibility with custom orthotics.

Care: To maintain the condition of your Halo Racer trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
  4. Laundering: Machine washing and drying are not recommended as they can compromise the shoe's structure and materials.
