The Under Armour Blur Pro is a 2025 elite, speed-focused American-football cleat. The upper is a knit called IntelliKnit with an ultra-thin thermoplastic polyurethane skin over it. The shoe uses UA HOVR drop-in cushioning in the midsole. The outsole is a data-driven biomechanical plate with long spikes for firm-ground traction. Reviewers report strong grip on dry natural grass and a locked-in, sock-like fit. Under Armour and reviewers say the cleat runs small and can feel narrow for some players.
Released 2025 as an elite, speed-focused American-football cleat. It is positioned as a low-profile option for players who want a track-spike-inspired feel.
Upper and construction: The upper is a lightweight knit called IntelliKnit with an ultra-thin TPU skin. The collar is a knit sleeve that wraps the ankle. This construction produces a sock-like, snug fit. The midsole uses UA HOVR foam as a drop-in cushioning unit.
Soleplate and studs: The outsole is a biomechanical, data-driven plate. Some versions include a stiff carbon plate. Reviewers describe long spikes and an aggressive cleat layout aimed at firm-ground traction.
Intended surfaces and specs: The cleat is built for natural grass and firm ground. It is not designed for turf. Weight is 244 g per shoe. Named features are UA HOVR foam, the IntelliKnit collar, the ultra-thin TPU skin and the biomechanical plate. MSRP is 110.
The Blur Pro targets low-cut skill and speed players. Ideal positions are wide receiver, cornerback, running back and safety. These players prioritize acceleration and quick cuts on firm natural grass. The 244 g weight, knit collar and aggressive stud pattern match that profile.
Players who need mid-cut ankle support or a roomier fit should choose mid- or high-cut alternatives. That includes many linebackers, tight ends who need extra support, and offensive or defensive linemen. Players who play mainly on turf should look elsewhere because the cleat is built for firm natural grass.
If you have wide feet, size up at least a half size or try wider models before buying.
Reviewers consistently call the outsole and stud pattern a primary strength. The aggressive cleat layout and rubber compounds are credited with providing grip for acceleration and quick direction changes (Best Smart Kitchen; ShoesTrace; Soccer Reviews For You).
One reviewer found wet-condition performance lacking. So the traction advantage is strongest on dry, firm natural grass rather than in rain (SoccerCleats101).
'I didn't feel like my foot was slipping. Felt pretty secure in the ground. I like how long the spikes are, especially in the back. I'm going to go about 8 and 1/2 out of 10.'. Hunter Reynolds
At 244 g per shoe (about 8.6 oz), reviewers treat the Blur Pro as a lightweight option in the speed-cleat category. Multiple outlets note the construction feels light on the field and supports quick movement (ShoesTrace; Best Smart Kitchen; Hunter Reynolds).
A minority of reviewers felt the weight did not deliver the extreme featherweight sensation some speed specialists want. So it is light but not ultra-light by the most extreme standards (Soccer Reviews For You).
'The Under Armour Blur Pros pretty light. Like they're not the heaviest cleat. Actually, they're not heavy at all.'. Hunter Reynolds
Comfort opinions are mixed. Several reviewers praise the cushioning and breathable knit upper and one reviewer rated comfort extremely highly, calling it plush and wearable (ShoesTrace; Hunter Reynolds; Best Smart Kitchen).
One reviewer said the soft 4D foam insole compresses too much for their taste. That over-compression can reduce stability underfoot for some players. The UA HOVR drop-in midsole adds responsiveness but interacts with the insole differently on different feet (Soccer Reviews For You; SoccerCleats101).
'For the comfort rating on the Under Armour Blur Pros, I'm going to give these a 10 and 1/2 out of 10. These are one of the most comfortable cleats I've ever put on.'. Hunter Reynolds
The Blur Pro gives a snug, sock-like fit because of the IntelliKnit upper and knit collar. Under Armour notes the cleat runs small and recommends sizing up about a half size. Reviewers give similar sizing advice (manufacturer note; ShoesTrace).
Some reviewers reported the fit feels tighter than typical cleats in this category. Players with wider feet should size up or try wider alternatives before committing (SoccerCleats101; ShoesTrace).
'True to size but consider sizing up for wider feet.'. ShoesTrace
Support is mixed across reviews. Outlets note basic arch support and directional stability from the soleplate. The construction keeps weight down without broadly sacrificing structure (ShoesTrace; Best Smart Kitchen; SoccerCleats101).
At least one reviewer felt the cleat tended to push weight toward the outside edge of the foot. That raised concerns about ankle stability and an increased risk of rolling an ankle for some players. The chassis may not suit every running pattern (Hunter Reynolds).
'there was like a kind of a weird thing where it almost felt like the cleat was naturally like leaned to the outside a little bit... Felt like it's going to be real easy to roll an ankle. I think I'm going to give these a 6 out of 10.'. Hunter Reynolds
Reviewers generally judge the build quality as solid for a season and comparable with other major brands. The textile upper, TPU skin and soleplate are reported to hold up under regular use (ShoesTrace; Soccer Reviews For You; SoccerCleats101).
Durability is not described as exceptional across the board. It is described as sufficient for competitive play across a season with no widespread reports of immediate failure in the sample evidence.
'the upside is the durability factor, and you will get a substantial life from the Blur'. SoccerCleats101
Lockdown scores well in reviewer evidence. The knit collar and snug IntelliKnit upper are credited with keeping the foot secure during explosive movements and cuts (Best Smart Kitchen; SoccerCleats101).
This secure feel supports the cleat's intended speed use, but the same snug fit makes sizing and width an important consideration.
'You want to feel locked in and secure when you're making quick cuts and explosive [music] movements, and the Blur Pro cleat deliver on that.'. Best Smart Kitchen
Value opinions are split. One reviewer calls the price premium a drawback for some budgets. Another reviewer cites current market pricing above MSRP, creating mixed impressions of value for money (ShoesTrace; SoccerCleats101).
Buyers should weigh the cleat's traction, weight and lockdown strengths against its fit limits and the surfaces they play on.
'Priced at a premium, which may not suit all budgets.'. ShoesTrace
They are best suited to firm natural grass. The cleat is designed for natural grass/firm ground and reviewers note an aggressive stud pattern and long spikes that work on those surfaces. It is not designed for turf.
Under Armour and reviewer reports say they run small and have a snug, sock-like fit. Under Armour recommends sizing up about a half size and some reviewers advise larger sizes for wider feet.
Reviewers describe confident grip for acceleration and quick changes on firm ground. One outlet reported traction that was slightly compromised in wet conditions. Expect strong dry-grass grip but be cautious in rain.
Reviewers generally expect season-long wear and comment on solid build quality compared with other major brands. Durability was not unanimously praised and depends on usage. Evidence points to reasonable longevity rather than extended heavy-duty life.
These suit speed and low-profile skill work. Wide receivers, cornerbacks, running backs and safeties fit the Blur Pro profile because of its light weight, aggressive traction and low, sock-like cut.
The outsole uses a biomechanical plate with long spikes. Reviewers describe it as an integrated, firm-ground setup rather than a detachable-stud system. The shoe is marketed for firm natural grass.
Bottom line, The Blur Pro is a lightweight, speed-oriented cleat that gives strong grip and a locked-in feel for players who prioritize acceleration on firm natural grass. Avoid it if you need extra room, turf compatibility, or a roomy, all-position fit.
