FAQs
What kind of runner is the Charged Pursuit 3 designed for?
The Charged Pursuit 3 is designed for NEUTRAL runners who need a balanced combination of flexibility and cushioning without extra stability features.
Can I use these shoes for trail running?
While the durable outsole offers traction, these shoes are primarily designed for road running, track, and gym surfaces. They are not specifically optimized for rugged or technical trail conditions.
How should I clean my Charged Pursuit 3 shoes?
Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap and gently wipe. Allow them to air dry at room temperature, away from direct heat.
What is 'Charged Cushioning'?
Charged Cushioning is a specialized midsole technology that uses compression molded foam to provide both responsive energy return and durable cushioning, absorbing impact effectively.
Do I need special socks to wear with these shoes?
While not strictly required, wearing moisture-wicking running socks is recommended to maximize the breathability of the mesh upper and keep your feet dry and comfortable.
How often should I replace my running shoes?
Running shoes typically need to be replaced every 300-500 miles, or every 6-12 months, depending on your running style, weight, and intensity of use. Pay attention to signs of wear on the outsole and reduced cushioning.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Re-lace your shoes, starting from the toes, ensuring even tension across all eyelets. Adjust the tightness until comfortable without restricting circulation. Experiment with different lacing techniques for a personalized fit.
Foot feels hot or sweaty during runs
The performance mesh upper provides breathability. Ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking running socks. If the problem persists, try looser lacing to improve air circulation.
Squeaking sound while walking or running
This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped between the insole and the shoe's last. Remove the deluxe foam sockliner, wipe both surfaces dry, and then reinsert the sockliner. If the sound persists, it might be due to shoe construction and often diminishes with wear.
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure you are using a secure knot, such as a double knot. For added security, consider experimenting with different lacing patterns that provide a tighter hold.
Lack of expected cushioning responsiveness
The Charged Cushioning is designed for responsiveness. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn beyond their typical lifespan (generally 300-500 miles, depending on individual use and running style). Keep the shoes clean and avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures, which can affect foam properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
Upon receiving your Charged Pursuit 3 shoes, simply unlace them, slide your foot in, and lace them up to a comfortable snugness. Ensure the tongue is centered and the ankle collar padding sits securely around your ankle. A standard tie lacing allows for easy adjustment.
Compatibility
These shoes are designed for NEUTRAL runners, meaning individuals whose feet do not excessively pronate (roll inward) or supinate (roll outward) during their gait cycle. They are suitable for various foot arches, but offer balanced cushioning and flexibility without specific motion control features. They perform best on paved roads, tracks, and indoor gym surfaces. While they offer good traction, they are not specifically designed for rugged trail running.
Care Instructions
To maintain the longevity and performance of your Under Armour Charged Pursuit 3 shoes:
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For stains, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Washing Machine: It is generally not recommended to machine wash running shoes as it can damage the cushioning and adhesive components.
