UNDER ARMOUR wins the NYC Marathon

And she ran in the NCAA

The under armor super shoes are the real deal, they may not look like traditional running shoes but they're legit. Great feel to them and makes running quick feel effortless.

Congrats to Sharon, what a brilliant run!

Under Armour seems to be getting some pretty legit results, with Weini Kelati also setting the 5K champs course record. They also recently signed the very promising Eduardo Herrera. Excited to see what else the team can put together.

If the shoes actually exist and can be purchased, I'd be interested in taking a look. Does the YT review crowd get them? I haven't see anything....

Could be these but not sure

UA Flow Velociti Elite Review with 8 Comparisons

Open link

I was out there for the 5k yesterday and Kelatis shoes looked max stack to me but probably need to look at pics

Who cares what they think?

RTR is somewhat okay, going over specs.

Excellent point. What I was wondering is if they are actually mass produced and available to random people - as opposed to a few pair were made for the sponsored runners we hear about. Whether I watch anybody's review is another question, but if those influencers got ahold of them it means they're trying to sell them and that pairs in various sizes exist at retailers.

Under Armour’s First Supershoe Is All About Comfort

Our first runs reveal that the Flow Velociti Elite coddles the foot and delivers a fast, easy-striding ride

I have a pair. Very stable. Bought them online at underarmour.com when they released.

Also just want to give UA a shout out for doing things right. They're behind on the curve, sure, but I found it very respectable to give their athletes the option to leave. And it's slowly but surely becoming clear that they've put in the work to create some great products. Congrats Sharon, Weini, and I'm sure many more UA athletes to come.

Lokedi's shoe is called the 324 Elite. It's similar but not quite the same as the Flow Velociti Elite that will be available at retail soon. I have run in the Flow Velociti Elite, and it's a great shoe. I would have no concerns about running a marathon in it, even if my livelihood depended on it.

That's nice- but the show of choice by the THOUSANDS was the Vaporfly.

Have we forgotten about how she was coached? Haas has done an incredible job with this team. You guys want to award the shoe with all the credit. Haas is emerging as one of the best professional coaches and agents despite some internal "team" setbacks that are now resolved. Way to go, Coach!

And Coach Whittlesey at Kansas. If he had the recruits/talent of some of the top programs, he’d get a lot more recognition as the great coach he is. Hoppel, now Lokedi both trained under his program looking like mainstays on the circuit for at least the next couple years. Congrats to Sharon on her big run!

Haas talks about the shoes in this video:

Exactly- step off the shoe bs. Let’s make this about the UA COACH and ATHLETE . Props

Thanks, good to know that the thousands down to the 4:00 marathoners were wearing Vaporflys.

And the thousands of Vaporflys were all behind UA.

Also Biya Simbassa runs for UA and he was a solid force on the roads this year, just finishing his season with a 60:23(??) half in Valencia.
