Under Armour Men's Ua Project Rock 3 Training Shoes Technical Performance

Product Information

There’s not a lot of cushion in the heel (good for lifting weights), and not much in the forefoot either. In terms of performance, I’ve been pleased with them as well. I’ve worn them while walking and running and have found them to be supportive. UA’s HOVR technology is supposed to help eliminate the harsh impact of your foot hitting the ground and I think it’s done that (at least for me). I suffer from shin splints, but have found these shoes to help with those. Looking for sizing advice? These shoes are narrow and short as compared to most other shoes. I recommend you go 1/2 size up to get the length and width you’ll need. We’ve built a range of UA HOVR™ trainers for all our most popular sports, and we use it in shoes for men, women and kids.

That includes rope climbs – the outsole is tough enough, but there’s no protection for the upper in areas that might be abraded while rope climbing.The design of PR3 is clearly indebted to its predecessor, the PR2, which was a huge departure from where the line began with the PR1. The newest model keeps the star's Brahma Bull logo, Under Armour's Hovr energy return foam, and Tribase outsole, but ditches the PR line's ankle-hugging bootie for a lower cut one-piece upper. This is great news for wearers who want to run, cut, and jump in the PR3—at times, the previous iterations of the shoe felt clunky during athletic movements. Now, the shoes feel much more mobile, while still providing plenty of support and stability. Do you Lift? This might be the shoe for you. Bootie construction and pull tab make for a comfortable fit. The Tribase is also a part of the UA Tribase Reign 2 Training Shoe, which we reviewed earlier this year. The midsole can keep a weightlifter flat and stable while lifting heavy weights at the gym. I would describe it as stable with enough flex to not feel like you are on a platform. Used for running a few times

As such, the entire upper on this shoe feels quite delicate. I would NOT use it for anything where the upper is going to be subjected to abrasion.There’s HOVR foam (and Energy Web) in there – but not that much of it. This is NOT a running shoe – it’s for lifting weights in the gym. In fact, there are a few things that I like more about the PR3’s. Firstly, they’re much easier (and faster) to slip on. Secondly, the laces are a little longer, so you can get a quality double-knot. Thirdly, I’ve found them to be cooler than the PR2’s. Both use all-rubber outsoles. Neither is great for running. There’s just not a lot of cushion in either shoe. This is a bit more than your average cross training shoe but not as much as your typical running shoe. This isn’t a running shoe though, so it doesn’t feel like there is a lot of HOVR foam – and cushioning is minimal.
