[Under Armour](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selection-of-versatile-shoes) introduces it's brand new running shoe entitled the [Flow](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modos-flow) Synchronicity sneaker model, which is a traditional silhouette that spotlights performance above all else. It stems from the focus on support and fit, made to specifically fit the shape of a woman's foot.

It supports the heel section and the arch, which is notably where women's feet tend to differ from the natural shape of a man's foot. It has technical details including a flexible upper made using micro-knot materials. It also has a heel-to-toe design that conforms to the foot to ensure that it is made to provide cushioning under the base. It has [lightweight materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/floatzig-2-running-shoes) including the brand's Flow technology and traction at the base.
