The Under Armour Overdrive Fat Tire is Now a Boot

under armour overdrive fat tire 7

The Under Armour Overdrive Fat Tire may be one of the most aesthetically unappealing shoes I’ve ever seen — besides for the grotesque things Rick Owens sells for $500 and up. Now, the mountain bike-inspired shoe has become a boot.

With help from Michelin (yes, the tire company), Under Armour created a unique outsole compound and traction pattern that should tackle cross-slope grip and all-terrains. With that thick midsole, impact protection is guaranteed. The cushioning system is Charged up top, plus a softer high-rebound foam that adapts to terrain beneath it. The upper is comprised of composite textile and foam. As with many boots, there are D-rings on the eyestays for security.

I can see the Under Armour Overdrive Fat Tire being much more useful as a boot for hiking or casual wear shoe. The low top sneaker seemed…cool, but without a distinct purpose because aesthetics were not its strong suit.

The Under Armour Overdrive Fat Tire is available now at UA.com for $160 in two colorways, Graphite/Black and Black/Red. To purchase, click here.

    1. I tried them on but didn’t pull the trigger — price was too much for me. They are EXTREMELY cushy. I can see why people would rock these, despite how ugly they are — they are supremely comfortable.

        1. Wow…..you guys mentioned it’s as good or close to boost,

          Did UA discovered a new foam with their partnership with Michellin?

          The shoe itself is not that pretty…..

  1. Isn’t that the charged description? and I quote “the cushioning system is Charged up top, plus a softer high-rebound foam that adapts to terrain beneath it. ” isn’t the 2nd sentence the description for charged?

  2. Sole Brothers needs to “does it basketball”..love to see Don rock an all black of these playing basketball.
