I seriously love shoes.
When people come to my house for the first time and see my diverse shoe collection which is crammed into a over the door shoe holder thing, the usual response is an audible gasp immediately followed by, ‘Oh WOW! That’s a lot of shoes…‘.
Shoes travel life with you, showcase your sassy self, and always fit even if you dove head first into the peanut butter jar the night before.
*AHEM*
Imagine my absolute glee when the cutest running shoes on the planet showed up via FedEx!
Meet the distinctly cute Under Armour RC Charge.
I think I made some sort of high pitched 'squeee' noise when I pulled them out of the box. So cute!
As though it were a match made in heaven, they perfectly coordinate with my latest workout outfit.
Perfection! How much more coordinated can a Figure Competitor get?
Cute is good, but functional is GREAT.
I have way too many shoes that are made for ‘sitting‘, so I wanted to give these babies a good beating to make sure they are more than a ‘pretty face‘.
Its go time. Show me what you're made of.
I popped them into my Livewell360 Core bag and put them to the test twice this week.
RC Charge meet leg day and floor hockey.
I only scored two goals. I think the cuteness distracted me.
I wanted to make sure they lived up to the hype.
“The UA Charge RC’s temperature-regulating HeatGear® upper keeps you cool, while strategic compression provides a custom fit. Underneath is a Carbon Spring Plate that enhances your stride. And, of course, all of it sits on our exclusive UA Micro G® cushioning…for more bounce.”
- Exclusive UA Micro G® foam cushioning is light, bouncy & super-responsive.
- Zonal UA Compression hugs the foot & promotes power.

Honestly, they are ‘freakishly amazing’.
Under Armour’s RC Charge is a great shoe and worth the price. This Figure Competitor gives them two thumbs up and will be rocking them every day at 6:30 am while lifting baby weights and not harming the skinny and confused man at the YMCA.
Wow!!! I love your new haircut!!!! AND the shoes are cute too.
I know, they are SUPER cute!! 😀 Love ’em to death.
LOVE those shoes!!! They don’t ship tp New Zealand though 🙁
Really? 🙁 Perhaps an athletic store New Zealand that carries Under Armour will bring them in!!
You would think so wouldnt you, im so upset right now, ive googled and e-mailed every store in NZ that stocks Under Armour and no-one has these shoes!!! They cant even get them in for me, Ive even e-mailed the head office in Canada and they wont ship out to me 🙁 I wanted to use them as incentive to get under a certain weight but I guess ill have to find something else….*sigh*
Hmm….let’s see if I can get anywhere!
Oooooh that would be great!! HAPPY FACE 🙂
I have good news! Email coming your way shortly!!
I am 99% sure I was just sold on that shoe. Under Armour should pay you for that advertisement! And you are right abut noticing the shoe during cardio… I always notice mine. Always.
No noticing your shoes during cardio!!!!
I’m a New Balance girl…. but those shoes of yours are super awesome!
They are super awesome!! I had Asics before…but I think I have been converted to Under Armour now. 😀
