Product Information
Full details
The Under Armour HOVR Phantom 2 IntelliKnit is designed for male athletes who prioritize responsive cushioning and a modern, snug fit for daily training sessions. Its primary benefit is the advanced UA HOVR technology that provides a 'zero-gravity' feel, effectively reducing impact during high-intensity movement; however, potential users should note that the sock-like construction requires a precise fit to ensure optimal ankle stability during lateral movements.

FAQs
Is this shoe suitable for heavy weightlifting?
While the shoe provides excellent cushioning for running and agility, it is not recommended for heavy weightlifting as the foam base is designed for compression, not stability under heavy loads.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as this can damage the IntelliKnit structure and affect the cushioning properties.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the IntelliKnit material is designed for breathability and is not waterproof.
How do I choose the correct size?
These shoes generally fit true to size. If you have particularly wide feet, you may find the compression fit snug, and you might consider trying a half-size up.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from high-quality engineered polyester knit for optimal breathability and stretch.
Troubleshooting
Knit upper feeling too tight around the ankle
Adjust the lacing system to be slightly looser or ensure the shoe is fully pulled on by utilizing the rear pull-tab.
Sensation of slippage during runs
Verify that you are using a runner's loop (heel lock) lacing technique to secure the ankle more firmly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Under Armour HOVR Phantom 2 IntelliKnit stays in peak condition, consider these guidelines:
- Fitment: Because of the compression-fit collar, ensure you select your standard UK sizing to prevent excessive pressure on the midfoot.
- Breaking In: Wear the shoes for short periods during the first few days to allow the IntelliKnit fibers to contour to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Clean the surface using a damp, soft cloth with mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a tumble dryer, as heat can degrade the cushioning foam and the knit elasticity.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the synthetic materials.
