An animated closer look \u2014 by Maxim Zhestkov<\/a> \u2013 at the HOVR\u2122 Phantom<\/strong> delves into the build of the dynamic runner. Conceptualizing the sneaker as a nexus of functionality and technology, Under Armour<\/strong> touts it\u2019s the \u201cperfect combination of cushioning, energy return and longevity.\u201d<\/p>\n

Within the sole, which is built from durable rubber with optimized traction and flex, lies the key features of the footwear. The wearer\u2019s stride is aided by Under Armour\u2019s proprietary HOVR\u2122 system built from a soft durometer foam and wrapped in an energy web \u2014 providing responsiveness and increased kinetic return. An embedded sensor completes the tech setup to provide connectivity to the MapMyRun app. Contrasting the utility of its lower-half, the upper features a blend of materials that serve to secure and support the foot. Knit \u2014 on the toe and ankle collar \u2014 and the perforated chamois secure the foot while Speedform 2.0 promotes medial and lateral comfort.<\/p>\n
