Introduction
Thank you for choosing Under Armour Women's Low-Top Running Shoes. This manual provides essential information for the proper setup, operation, maintenance, and care of your new footwear. Please read this manual thoroughly before first use to ensure optimal performance and longevity of your shoes.
Setup and First Use
Upon receiving your Under Armour running shoes, carefully remove them from their packaging. Inspect the shoes for any visible damage or manufacturing defects. If any issues are found, please contact customer support immediately.
Lacing: Ensure the laces are properly threaded through all eyelets. Adjust the lacing to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Avoid overtightening, which can restrict blood flow and cause discomfort, or undertightening, which can lead to instability.

Initial Fit: Wear the shoes with the type of socks you typically use for running. Walk around to assess the fit. Your toes should have a small amount of space at the front, and your heel should feel secure without slipping excessively.
Operating and Intended Use
These Under Armour Low-Top Running Shoes are designed for road running and general athletic activities. They provide cushioning and support for various foot strikes and running styles.
Wearing: Always wear appropriate athletic socks to prevent friction and absorb moisture. Ensure your feet are clean and dry before putting on your shoes.
Running Surface: While designed for road running, these shoes can be used on various paved and light trail surfaces. Avoid using them on extremely rough terrain or for activities they are not designed for, such as heavy hiking or climbing, to prevent premature wear and potential injury.
Break-in Period: It is recommended to gradually break in new running shoes. Start with shorter runs or walks before engaging in longer, more intense workouts to allow your feet to adapt to the new footwear.
Maintenance and Care
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your running shoes.
Cleaning:
- Remove loose dirt with a soft brush or cloth.
- For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap and cold water solution. Gently scrub affected areas with a soft cloth or sponge.
- Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and construction of the shoes.
- Remove insoles and wash them separately if needed.
Drying:
- Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature.
- Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources (e.g., radiators, hair dryers), which can cause materials to shrink, crack, or deform.
- Stuffing the shoes with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Avoid storing them in damp or humid environments.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your running shoes, consider the following common solutions:
Discomfort or Blisters:
- Issue: Shoes feel too tight or cause rubbing.
- Solution: Re-evaluate lacing. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, the shoe size or width may be incorrect.
Excessive Wear on Sole:
- Issue: Sole wears out quickly or unevenly.
- Solution: Running shoes have a typical lifespan based on mileage (generally 300-500 miles). Uneven wear might indicate a need for gait analysis or a different shoe type. Consider replacing shoes when cushioning feels diminished or tread is significantly worn.
Squeaking Noise:
- Issue: Shoes make a squeaking sound while walking or running.
- Solution: This can sometimes be caused by moisture between the insole and the shoe's footbed. Remove the insole, clean both surfaces, and ensure they are completely dry before reinserting.
