Under Armour Spawn 5 Review
Pros:
Comfortable Micro G cushioning
Secure fit
Cons:
Inconsistent traction
Low-quality materials
Performance of the Under Armour Spawn 5:
Reviewers report that the traction is inconsistent. It performed decently on clean courts, but dust is an issue.
The cushioning is Micro G, and it's the best feature. Micro G is comfortable and low-profile.
The materials are cheap, with reviewers agreeing they're low-quality. It doesn't affect the performance too much, though.
Support and lockdown are consistent. Reviewers didn't report any issues with stability either.
Overall, the Under Armour Spawn 5 is an average performer with a decent price point.

The Under Armour Spawn 5 would be a banger if the traction were better. It's a responsive shoe with comfortable cushioning and support.

You need to break the traction in before the performance improves. It's nothing special on clean courts and even worse on dusty courts.

The cushioning is comfortable, smooth, and low to the ground with lots of court feel. Micro-G is an underrated cushion.

The Micro-G cushioning is soft; it's my favourite aspect of the shoe. The court feel is solid, and impact protection is there.

The quality of the materials is crappy. It's comfortable and doesn't take away from performance much.

The shoe feels supportive. The lateral containment is good to go. I had zero issues with lockdown too.

The fit feels short. The toe box is snug. Once you get the sizing right, it feels secure.
