Let’s face it, I’m not an elite runner yet! But like any determined athlete, I’m always striving to be the best version of myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I believe that the formula to be a better runner involves effective training plan, consistent practice, the right nutrition and proper running gears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shoe is undoubtedly an essential gear in running. Choosing the right shoe is an important decision every runner must make every now and then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my quest to be a better runner, I\u2019m always looking for the next best running shoes. I wonder if Under Armour\u2019s new super shoe will help me to be a better runner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unleashing Your Best Potential with UA Flow Velociti Elite<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I went on several runs with UA Flow Velociti Elite, and here are my thoughts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ll admit, I was taken aback when I took my first step in the UA Flow Velociti Elite<\/a>. Because I tend to put all my weight on my heels when standing, I felt the sensation as if I was falling backwards! The sole is so soft and bouncy, it took me a few minutes to get used to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See, the sole of the shoe is really unique. There is literally no rubber on the outsole, instead, the sole is made of thick Flow midsole foam with a full-length carbon fibre plate sandwiched into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The carbon-plated sole is designed to give springy lift-offs and I feel that the sole indeed delivers what it promises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At first glance, I had suspicion that the foam sole might not do well on wet surfaces. After a couple of runs on wet tarmacs, I can safely say that the traction is superb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feature that I love the most from UA Flow Velociti Elite is the shoe\u2019s see-through upper. With WARP 2.0 technology, the upper features breathable mesh that\u2019s reinforced with horizontal and vertical tapes that act like skeleton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without the traditional all-enclosing upper, I did not feel significant heat build-up around my feet during my runs. It is especially useful when running during the hot season or in countries with hot climate and high humidity like Singapore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under Armour\u2019s team definitely brings the words lightweight and breathability to a whole new level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The thinly padded tongue is soft, flexible and doesn\u2019t restrict my movement. But the tongue gets dirty easily after a few runs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m wearing my usual size and I found that the toe box is quite spacious, even for my wide feet. The heel counter is sturdy enough to provide protection against impact, but flexible enough to provide comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I brought the shoes overseas to a city with temperature hovering between 11\u00b0C to 16\u00b0C as I wanted to get some mileage done while on vacation. Unfortunately, it wasn\u2019t a wise move. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My feet were cold from being exposed to the cold air. But this could probably be just me, though. Other people might love the cold air breeze on their feet while running a marathon in cold weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
