Under Armour Flow FUTR X Elite Review
Pros:
Stable foam midsole
Comfortable Intelliknit upper
Cons:
Stretchy forefoot materials
Non-optimal performance fit
Performance of the Under Armour Flow FUTR X Elite:
The Under Armour Flow FUTR X Elite is a newly innovative performance basketball shoe.
Flow foam remains elite on clean courts. As always, wipe on dusty surfaces.
The midsole setup features a bulkier iteration of Flow. It feels more stable and secure. It's better for responsiveness.
Under Armour's Intelliknit upper is also comfortable, lightweight, and breathable.
The midfoot shank and stiff heel counter ensure support and containment are not an issue during play.
The fit is divisive. Players who enjoy more freedom and stretchiness in the forefoot and toe box will enjoy the fit, but players who prefer a snug fit will not.
The Under Armour FUTR X Elite steps up with a more innovative upper, and the traction and cushioning are what you expect from Flow, but make sure you like the fit beforehand.

The midsole has a ton of impact protection. It feels softer than the Curry line, too. There's also plenty of court feel in the forefoot.

Under Armour uses its Intelliknit on the upper with an added layer reinforcing it. It feels comfortable around the foot, but the forefoot stretches.

The Intelliknit fabric is soft, lightweight, and breathable. There's no break-in time and there are no weak points for containment. The loose forefoot weave reduces performance, though.

There's tons of torsional rigidity and solid lateral containment because of the midfoot shank. When combined with the heel counter, there's no lack of support.

My main complaint is the wider toe box causing your toes to splay resulting in reduced reaction time. The rest of the shoe is stable and secure, especially the midsole.
