Under Armour aren’t always the first name that comes to mind when you think about the running game, but things could be changing thanks to the launch of their latest pavement pounding creation: the HOVR Phantom 2 IntelliKnit.

As the name suggests, Under Armour made some upgrades to the popular HOVR Phantom 2, wrapping it in light, breathable UA IntelliKnit on the upper. As a result, the new materials make for better quick-drying properties, stretch, flex, and comfort with every stride. Overall, the look is a modern one, with a streamlined profile and subtle colour pops on each colourway. Additionally, the branding is kept relatively minimal, with a UA logo hit on the heel counter. As for tech, the high-energy feel synonymous with UA runners is retained, with the soft UA HOVR cushioning placed in the sole unit for max energy return. If you’re in the market for a new go-to for neutral and short runs, look no further!
