Women’s UA HOVR Machina 2 Running Shoes – Overview
The Machina 2 is a neutral shoe intended for runners who need a balance of flexibility and cushioning. It is Under Armour’s highest cushioned shoe that renders a soft, energy-efficient ride with a built-in propulsion plate for added bounce. The UA HOVR foam generates a zero-gravity feel to keep the energy performance of the shoe and reduce the harsh effects of impact. It is lightweight and flexible making it a great addition to your running shoe lineup.
The upper of the Machina 2 is re-engineered using an ultralight 3D spacer mesh that enhances breathability and space, so your feet are comfortable and not feeling restrained. The carbon shank in the midsole has been substituted with a Pebax propulsion plate, which adds softness and flexibility for a faster, more cushioned ride. The combination of the responsive HOVR foam and the propulsion plate provides the Machina 2 added shock absorption so you can run further.
This shoe is great not only for running but also an excellent companion for everyday all-day activities. The Machina 2 comes with a “MapMyRun Pod” installed in the shoe so you can track your run or walking ventures. Just connect the shoes to your phone using Bluetooth, and it will show a map of your training along with pace, distance, and other activity data. This technology is included in all of UA’s run lines.
