FAQs

Who are the Under Armour Charged Pursuit 3 shoes best suited for?

These shoes are best suited for neutral runners who require a balanced blend of flexibility and responsive cushioning for their daily training and road runs.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

While the outsole offers durability and traction, the Charged Pursuit 3 is primarily designed for road running, track use, and indoor training. For technical or rugged trail running, a specialized trail running shoe with more aggressive lug patterns and protective features would be more appropriate.

How should I clean my Under Armour Charged Pursuit 3 shoes?

It is recommended to clean your shoes by hand using a soft brush or cloth, mild soap (like diluted laundry detergent), and cold water. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals, and allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight.

What is 'Charged Cushioning'?

`Charged Cushioning` is Under Armour's proprietary midsole technology featuring compression molded foam. It's engineered to provide ultimate responsiveness and durability, effectively absorbing impact and returning energy for a more dynamic and comfortable stride.

Does the sizing run true to fit?

Under Armour running shoes, including the Charged Pursuit 3, generally fit true to size. However, for the best fit, it's always advisable to try them on, ideally at the end of the day when your feet are slightly swollen.

What is the benefit of the deluxe foam sockliner?

The deluxe foam sockliner is designed to mold specifically to the contours of your foot over time. This provides personalized, adaptive underfoot comfort, enhancing the overall fit and cushioning experience with each wear.

Are these shoes suitable for all-weather running?

The performance mesh upper provides excellent breathability, which is great for warmer conditions. While the outsole offers good traction in dry to mildly damp conditions, the shoes are not waterproof. For heavy rain or snowy conditions, consider shoes with water-resistant or waterproof uppers.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels uncomfortably tight or causes pressure points.

Check your lacing; ensure it's firm but not overly tight. Experiment with different lacing patterns, such as skipping an eyelet, to relieve pressure on the top of your foot. The deluxe sockliner may also require a short break-in period to fully mold to your foot's unique shape.

Experiencing reduced grip on certain running surfaces.

Inspect the outsole pattern for any trapped debris like mud or small stones and clean thoroughly. While the durable outsole offers reliable traction, its primary design is for road and light track use. Extreme conditions like very wet or icy surfaces may naturally reduce grip; consider the terrain suitability for these shoes.

Feet feel excessively warm or sweaty during runs.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks made of moisture-wicking materials, which help manage sweat and regulate temperature. While the performance mesh upper is highly breathable, the right sock choice significantly impacts foot comfort and temperature. Verify that the shoes are the correct size to allow for adequate airflow.

These running shoes require no complex setup; simply lace them up and go. For optimal comfort and performance, ensure your laces are tied securely but not excessively tight to prevent pressure points. The shoes are compatible with standard running socks and are primarily designed for road running, track workouts, or light gym use. To care for your Charged Pursuit 3 shoes, gently clean them by hand using a soft brush or cloth with mild soap (such as diluted laundry detergent) and cold water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or machine washing, as these can damage the materials and adhesives. Allow the shoes to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat or sunlight. Store them in a cool, dry place to maintain their condition.
