In short: The tallest Under Armour shoe is the HOVR Summit Fat Tire Cuff. The shoe’s heel has a stack height of 37mm, and the forefoot is 31mm. This adds about 1.33 inches to your height.
UA offers three running shoe collections: UA Flow, UA HOVR™, and UA Charged. The tallest Under Armour shoes belong to the UA HOVR™ collection.
Under Armour shoes with UA Flow cushioning lack rubber, which means they don’t add much to your height. However, these shoes are light and have strong grip.
Under Armour’s Charged Cushioning offers top shock absorption and energy return. It reduces impact with each step but doesn’t add much height.
Shoes from the UA HOVR™ collection, however, are quite prominent. They have thick midsoles and cushioning, adding a lot of height.
Here are Under Armour shoes that make you taller, ranked by height:
Under Armour HOVR Phantom 3
The UA HOVR Phantom 3’s heel has a stack height of 25mm, and the forefoot is 17mm, with an 8mm drop. These shoes add about 0.83 inches to your height.
I find the Under Armour HOVR Phantom 3 visually appealing for a running shoe. It’s great as a stylish lifestyle sneaker, but not ideal for serious running.
I’m drawn to this shoe’s sleek and futuristic look. However, when I tried them, I found they lacked cushioning, lockdown, and stability.
The heel has good stability, but the forefoot lacks enough cushioning.
Pushing off with my toes felt like there was hardly any cushion between them and the ground.
I see this pair as versatile for workouts, short runs, and casual wear. They’re for people who don’t run much.
Still, I’d wear the UA HOVR Phantom 3 as a lifestyle sneaker. It adds about 0.83 inches to my height, making me look a bit taller.
Under Armour HOVR Machina 3
The UA HOVR Machina 3’s heel is 28mm high, and the forefoot is 20mm, with an 8mm drop. These shoes add about 0.94 inches to your height.
Unlike earlier Machina versions, the Machina 3 has dual-density HOVR cushioning. It combines a firm forefoot with a soft heel.
The heel feels like other Under Armour running shoes with HOVR.
However, the main change is in the forefoot. The forefoot is more responsive and durable, making these shoes ideal for track work and quick runs.
Even though the UA HOVR Machina 3 makes you almost an inch taller, I wouldn’t choose them as lifestyle shoes. Their look isn’t to my taste.
Under Armour HOVR Infinite 3
The UA HOVR Infinite 3’s heel is 29mm high, and the forefoot is 21mm, with an 8mm drop. These shoes add about 0.98 inches to your height.
The Infinite’s midsole is thicker than earlier HOVR-equipped Under Armour shoes, such as the Phantom and Sonic. While it’s taller, it’s not necessarily softer.
It’s less bouncy than the Adidas Ultraboost, but the landings feel soft.
There’s a gentle response when the foot pressure releases. Overall, a stable pair of running shoes.
This pair is stylish and among the tallest Under Armour shoes.
Under Armour HOVR Mega 3 Clone
The UA HOVR Mega 3 Clone’s heel is 33mm high, and the forefoot is 25mm, with an 8mm drop. These shoes add about 1.14 inches to your height.
The UA HOVR Mega 3 Clone is a versatile running shoe suitable for neutral runners. It’s designed to offer a balance between flexibility and cushioning.
I appreciate the HOVR cushioning in the shoe, which enhances my runs.
When I walk, the 3D foam insoles provide added cushioning and support for more comfort.
The Mega 3 Clone has a decent appearance. Its upper is breathable and features strategically placed synthetic panels for extra support and resistance to wear.
Under Armour HOVR Mega 2 MVMNT
The UA HOVR Mega 2 MVMNT’s heel is 33mm high, and the forefoot is 25mm, with an 8mm drop. These shoes add about 1.14 inches to your height.
This is the first Under Armour shoe on this list designed as a lifestyle sneaker, not a running shoe. It’s not only sleek but also one of the tallest UA shoes.
Among lifestyle shoes, this UA shoe stands out for its comfort due to its responsive UA HOVR™ cushioning, which reduces impact and aids forward movement.
There are many color options available, but the Black History Month edition is my favorite.
The blend of black, purple, yellow, and turquoise makes it a work of art.
The UA HOVR Mega 2 MVMNT looks even better in person than in photos. It’s slightly wider than typical running shoes, offers excellent cushioning, and has a stylish appearance.
The best part is this shoe, being among the tallest from Under Armour, adds over an inch to your height.
Under Armour HOVR Summit Fat Tire Cuff Running Shoes
The UA HOVR Summit Fat Tire Cuff has a stack height of 38mm in the heel and 30mm in the forefoot (8mm drop). These shoes add about 1.33 inches to your height.
The tallest Under Armour shoe is the HOVR Summit Fat Tire Cuff. It offers significant cushioning, making it one of the most comfortable shoes I’ve worn.
I wanted a unique shoe, and the HOVR Summit Fat Tire Cuff met my expectations.
Although I’ve run just over 13 miles in them, they remain comfortable throughout. When I wear them for casual walks, I stay comfortable all day.
I’ve finally found a shoe that can handle long days on my feet, whether I’m walking miles around an amusement park or just standing.
The shoe is also water-resistant, keeping my feet dry in the rain. I probably won’t use the zip-on collars/sleeves. I hope future models exclude them.
I’d also like to see solid color options. Overall, this shoe offers good value for its price.
