FAQs

What is the purpose of the Pebax® propulsion plate?

The Pebax® propulsion plate is engineered to enhance energy return, helping you run faster and more efficiently.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The UA Storm treated upper is water-resistant, but the shoes are not fully waterproof. They can withstand light rain.

Can I use these shoes for everyday wear?

While these shoes are designed for running, their comfort and style make them suitable for casual wear as well.

How long will the outsole last?

The Vibram outsole is durable, but its lifespan depends on usage and terrain. Running on abrasive surfaces will cause it to wear down faster.

What is the best way to clean the shoes?

Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing and allow them to air dry.

What kind of terrain are these shoes best suited for?

These shoes perform well on various terrains, including roads and trails.

What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?

Use running socks with good breathability to wick away moisture and prevent blisters.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight.

Loosen the laces or consider going up a half size.

Traction seems inadequate on wet surfaces.

Ensure the outsole is clean. Consider using a shoe with a more aggressive tread pattern if running primarily on wet surfaces.

The upper feels too warm.

Make sure you're wearing appropriate socks. Consider using the shoe in cooler conditions or shorter runs.
