In case you haven’t guessed it, the shoes in question are the UA FLOW Velociti Wind 2 and the Under Armour Tribase Reign 4 Pro, the former being thebest running shoeand the latter thebest workout shoeUA has to offer. The updates are subtle but significant enough to make you start paying attention to UA shoes if you haven’t already done so.
Especially on the running shoe front, Under Armour is not getting enough love, at least not as much as it deserves. The HOVR line, including the Phantom 2 and Machina 2, are exuberant running shoes with virtual running coach functionalitybuilt into the shoes. There aren’t many shoes on the market that can analyse your running performance and improve form via Bluetooth connection to your smartphone, are there?
In contrast, UA’scross-training shoesare as popular as ever thanks to their sturdiness and durability; check out theUA HOVR Apex 2for more info. The Tribase franchise is similar to Nike’s Metcon series ofcross-training shoesand is regarded highly in gym circles.
Long story short, give these shoes a try now. Or when they become available in your region (see below).

UA FLOW Velociti Wind 2: Better lockdown and comfort
The original FLOW Velociti Wind introduced so much innovation, no one in their right could have expected the second iteration of the shoes to revamp the design completely. Instead, the FLOW Velociti Wind 2 improved areas where the first FLOW Velociti Wind didn’t quite deliver the premium running experience it promised, such as heel lockdown and comfort levels.
Better still, the UA FLOW Velociti Wind 2 slightly reduced the weight of the already lightweight running shoes.

UA Tribase Reign 4 Pro: Improved flexibility and ground contact
Under Armour added the word “Pro” to the name of the new TriBase, indicating that you should take these shoes seriously. I loved theUA TriBase Reign 2as well as the third iteration of the shoes, so I’m curious to see how much the shoes can be improved in terms of performance.
According to Under Armour, these improvements include an improved midsole structure that enhances forefoot flexibility, a breathable, flexible mesh upper, medial and lateral forefoot straps for added stability and a wider ball girth and toe area allowing “core ground contact and toe splay.” Noice!
The TriBase Reign 4 Pro was developed with elite functional fitness athlete James Newbury which makes me hopeful that the changes UA introduced will improve overall performance.
