Under Armour HOVR Phantom

Gravitational gravity

As early as a few months ago, we have already experienced the UA HOVR, a new cushioning black technology, but when I saw HOVR Phantom this time, there was still a kind of shock that could not be said. In terms of appearance, it brings us the most remarkable convenience. It is the HOVR cushioning technology that covers the convex material in the middle of the upper and the midsole position. I have to say that the combination of the two gives people a sense of the future of the new architecture. Of course, the height of the upper is also its highlight, otherwise it will not appear in this evaluation. For other UA running shoes that have been tried, the weight of the HOVR Phantom in the hand is not small, I wonder if this will affect the drag of the physical decline after long-distance running.

Compared with many socks running shoes, HOVR Phantom is moderately easy to wear, and the relatively tight upper can also be said to have both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that the ankle is not insecure because the upper material is too loose, but it will cause some wear on the skin at the ankle position. Sure enough, shortly after the foot, the evaluation staff wearing the boat socks felt a little discomfort in the position of the ankle. Although there was no bleeding and other conditions at the end of the evaluation process, it is recommended that the runners try their best when they first wear them. Dressing in stockings is also a way to increase comfort.

After a certain intensity of warm-up, we entered the actual combat session. In the front about five minutes or so, the initial feeling for UA HOVR Phantom is that the midsole cushioning is slightly harder, which should be related to the characteristics of HOVR itself. As a polymer elastic material produced by Dow, the first chemical group in the United States, such cushioning materials are generally of the "slow heat" type, and cannot be changed to "microwave oven" under the support of the outer "black net". running shoes. However, compared to the HOVR technology of the midsole, the entire Microthread upper looks more "close to the people". The seemingly thick upper is also good in breathability while ensuring the sense of wrapping.

Unconsciously, it has been nearly 30 minutes. The fully released reviewer said that his feet have fully adapted to the HOVR Phantom midsole structure, and the most obvious feeling is the heel position. Because the evaluation staff is followed by the landing method, the cushioning performance of the back side of the running shoes has always been valued, and the HOVR Phantom in the heel position can be said to be very solid regardless of the thickness of the midsole or the position of the HOVR material. It delivers a good and stable foot support and is paired with SpeedForm 2 insoles for men and women with different foot shapes, making it easy to handle the past, whether it's a pothole or a corner.

At the end of the evaluation, the feedback that the reviewer first gave was that despite the high-top design and the suspicion of some foot rubs in the early stage, the HOVR Phantom's ankle comfort is remarkable, which is very suitable for ankle injury. The runners, after all, are a little bit more helpful on the level of the heart. The weight problem we were worried about above did not happen. The front and rear palms of 8mm and the full palm-grained outsole also played a great role in supporting the runners. Perhaps the fly in the ointment or the stunning sense of HOVR technology does not look so strong, but still recommended to runners who are willing to try new technology, I believe this will be your best choice.
