FAQs
What kind of runner is the Under Armour Charged Pursuit 3 for?
This shoe is specifically designed for `NEUTRAL` runners, meaning those who have a balanced foot strike and do not require extra stability or motion control to correct overpronation.
Can I use these shoes for walking or daily wear?
Yes, the blend of comfort from the foam padding and sockliner, along with the responsive cushioning, makes them an excellent choice for walking, gym workouts, and general daily wear.
How should I clean my Charged Pursuit 3 running shoes?
Clean them by hand with a soft brush or cloth, mild soap, and cool water. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, and always air dry them away from direct heat.
What is 'Charged Cushioning'?
Charged Cushioning is a technology used in the midsole that consists of compression molded foam. It's designed to provide both high responsiveness for energy return and excellent durability, giving you a springy yet protective feel underfoot.
Are the laces standard or special?
The Under Armour Charged Pursuit 3 features standard tie laces, offering a traditional and reliable closure system.
Is this shoe good for long-distance running?
For neutral runners, the responsive Charged Cushioning and comfortable fit make it suitable for a variety of distances, including moderate long runs, as it provides a good balance of cushioning and lightweight feel.
What does the 'performance mesh upper' offer?
The performance mesh upper provides critical lightweight breathability, which helps to keep your feet cool and dry by allowing air to circulate during your activities.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel too warm or sweaty during runs.
While the mesh upper is breathable, ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking athletic socks. Cotton socks retain moisture and can exacerbate warmth and discomfort. Also, ensure your laces aren't too tight, which can restrict airflow.
My feet feel tired or sore after extended use.
Check your lacing to ensure it's not too tight or too loose, as either can affect foot comfort and support. Also, remember that all running shoe cushioning eventually compresses; if you've put a significant number of miles (typically 300-500 miles) on them, it might be time to consider a replacement pair.
Shoes feel less responsive than when new.
This is a natural progression as the Charged Cushioning midsole breaks down over time and mileage. To maximize the life of the cushioning, ensure you're using the shoes primarily for their intended purpose (running/training) and consider rotating them with another pair if you run daily.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Lacing: The shoe features a standard tie lace system. Ensure laces are tied securely but not too tightly to avoid pressure points. Experiment with different lacing techniques if you experience discomfort, such as skipping an eyelet or using a heel-lock lace.
- First Wear: It's advisable to wear the shoes for shorter periods initially to allow the deluxe foam sockliner to mold to your foot's unique shape for personalized comfort.
Compatibility
- Runner Type: These shoes are explicitly designed for `NEUTRAL` runners. This means they are best for individuals whose feet have a normal pronation pattern and do not require additional arch support or stability features to correct overpronation (excessive inward roll) or supination (outward roll).
- Activities: Ideal for daily road running, light trail running, gym workouts, walking, and general athletic wear. The balance of cushioning and flexibility makes them a good all-around training partner.
- Surfaces: Performs well on pavement, track, treadmills, and short grass or packed dirt paths.
Care
Proper care extends the life and performance of your Under Armour Charged Pursuit 3 shoes.
- Cleaning: Gently remove dirt and debris using a soft brush or cloth. For deeper cleaning, mix a small amount of mild soap with cool water. Lightly scrub stained areas with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage materials and cushioning.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources like radiators. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, which can degrade materials.
- Rotation: If you run frequently, consider rotating between two pairs of shoes. This allows the cushioning to fully decompress and recover between runs, extending the lifespan of each pair.
