Not what I expected
I bought a pair of Under Armour running shoes in the past. I loved running in them. This pair looked very similar to the ones I loved, and the reviews were encouraging. As soon as I received them, I took them for a 4-mile run and they did not offer the support or comfort I expected. Too bad I already wore them in a run or I would return them or exchange them for another model.

Love these shoes!!
The shoe is so light and durable. I have had these shoes for 6 months and they still look brand new. These are my go to shoes, they are easy to slip on to run errands or to work in. I am a nurse and my feet do not hurt after wearing these shoes. The color is right on. I am so happy with the quality.

Extremely discomfort
I was very excited to get this pair after reading the positive review, however, these are not for me. I swear by my previous 6+ pairs of UA shoes, and size 9.5 always fits, so I didn't go half size up as others mentioned. I tried them on at home and 9.5 feels right. But it's a totally different story wearing them outside even just to run errands. There is very minimum forefoot cushion that I doubt they're meant for running purpose. The elastic part is the worst! There is no padding so the hard surface keeps rubbing my heels. The odd design also makes it dig into my heels even more. I wore crew wool socks with this pair of "running" shoes today and after a 30 minute walking, my heels are so red now. I'm disappointed with the discomfort for the price I paid for this pair. What's even more frustrated is that with irritated heels, I now can't really continue with my running routines!! Do not even consider buying this pair!

Good fit. Poor materials
Great shoe. Fits wonderfully. Feels like you aren’t wearing shoes. I have had 2 problems with these shoes. The shoe laces are slick and untie easily (Even when double knotted) and the treads wore out quickly. I have had these shoes approx 3 weeks and already have bald spots where the balls of my feet hit. Way too expensive to last a measly 3 weeks.

These do not work for me at all
I was excited about these shoes with all the great reviews for them and they are also pretty nice looking. I got them specifically for speed runs, which for me are usually anywhere from 7-10 mi total. I typically wear an 8.5 in normal shoes so I sized up to a 9 (I mostly wear 9 in other running shoes). Technically they fit okay I guess but not great. The first and biggest issue I had with them was forefoot cushioning. The problem with the forefoot cushioning is there literally is none. As soon as I took off on my run it felt like my feet were just slamming down onto the pavement with no protection, which really aggravated the balls of my feet. The heel cushioning is sufficient and actually really responsive so I was a little bummed about how painful these were to wear. I normally wear an 8 mm drop, these are 7.5 mm. It really felt like more. Second, my feet were not stable inside the shoe even though these run pretty small. I have a couple turns to make on my usual route and I had to almost come to a complete stop to make them as my feet were sliding all over the place inside the shoe. The heel was also rubbing on at least one of my feet. Third, I had to stop twice during my run to re-tie the laces. First the right shoe got really loose so I stopped and re-tied it. Then the left shoe did the same thing a few miles later. Nothing irritates me more than having to stop during a run to re-tie my shoes. Even with them tightened my feet were still slipping around. During my speed intervals I liked them alright. Did they make me run faster like they claim to? No, I made me run faster. I did like the neutral design, lightness, and flexibility. Overall I don't think I can run in these, which is unfortunate because I wasted a decent amount of money on them. They felt really nice when I tried them on and walked around but stepping off for a run was just entirely another story. If you are looking for a shoe with any amount of forefoot cushioning or responsiveness do not buy these.

Best shoes!
I love these shoes so much. So comfortable and lightweight. Can wear them all day with no problems. This is the second pair and own and these ones did not disappoint either. They run about a half size small. I normally wear 9.5 and the 10 fit perfect in both pairs I own.

Great shoe, not durable
I was so excited when I put these shoes on for the first time. They fit wonderfully, and gave me the appropriate amount of stability for running and my other workouts. I'd put a lot of time into going to a brick and mortar store to try these on (it was an outlet, they didn't have the color I wanted) before purchasing online, and thought I'd made the right choice. Unfortunately, I was in the middle of a workout last evening, and noticed the fabric near the rubber on the toe is frayed already. I have only had these for a month, and it looks like there will be a hole in them in no time at all. I am so incredibly bummed, because these shoes are great in every other way. If you don't ever drag your toe on anything, or you stick to indoor running, these would probably be ok.

Small
I purchased these shoes in size 6.5 and they fit and look super small. I though I purchase kids size by mistake however they were regular women shoes. I returned them and reorder a side 7. hopefully 7 would be the right fit.
