Varsity Phantom White Cheer Shoes
The Official Cheer Shoe of the US National Premier Teams.
The Phantom is not just another pair of white cheer shoes. It is the first shoe in the Varsity lineup to feature first-of-its-kind carbon fiber plate technology, and that changes everything about how the shoe performs under pressure.
The carbon fiber plate sits between the midsole and outsole, creating a rigid platform that converts energy from landings and takeoffs into responsive spring. For tumblers, that means faster rebounds. For bases, it means more stability under load. For flyers, the 4.0 oz build is among the lightest in the cheer shoes collection, keeping weight to a minimum without sacrificing the support that high-level routines demand.
The textured outsole grips gym floors and competition mats equally well, so the transition from warm-up to the stage does not require a mental adjustment. And because the Phantom ships with its own quilted carrying bag, your Phantom shoes stay clean and protected between sessions. The bag doubles as a cosmetic pouch with interior pockets, so it pulls double duty in your gear rotation.
At $144.95, the Phantom sits at the top of Varsity's competition shoe lineup for good reason. It packs carbon fiber plate innovation, a 4.0 oz frame, and a carrying bag into one purchase with no need for aftermarket insoles or add-ons.

The Varsity Phantom is the right fit for:
- Competition tumblers who need responsive energy return and stability through back-to-back passes
- Bases who want a shoe with a rigid, supportive platform for loading and catching during partner stunts
- Flyers looking for one of the lightest Phantom cheer shoes available at just 4.0 oz
- All star and school competition athletes who need all-white footwear that meets standard competition color requirements
- Serious athletes ready to invest in a premium shoe with built-in carbon fiber plate technology, eliminating the cost of separate performance insoles
- Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap after each use. The low-profile construction cleans quickly.
- For scuff marks on the white surface, a gentle paste of baking soda and water applied with a soft brush removes marks without discoloring the material.
- Remove the insoles after each wear and let them air dry separately to prevent moisture buildup inside the shoe.
- Air dry at room temperature. Avoid direct heat, dryers, and sunlight, which can warp the lightweight sole and yellow the white finish.
- Store the Phantom shoes in the included quilted carrying bag between uses. The bag keeps dust, dirt, and compression from damaging the shoe during transport.
- Avoid wearing the Phantom on rough outdoor surfaces like asphalt or gravel. The textured sole and lightweight build are optimized for indoor performance surfaces.

MORE TO CHEER FOR
It’s there is definitely good shock absorption when tumbling and flexibility for jumps, however they feel very wide and I wish they felt more secure around the top of my feet. I don’t like how my feet don’t feel smug and secure because there’s too much room in the toe box. The length fits perfectly I just wish they would feel more snug so I felt more secure when tumbling.
True to size and shipped quickly
If you are used to a high-top these are VERY low. They feel like they do not have a lot of support.
The Phantoms are honestly such a good mix of comfort and performance. They’re super lightweight but still give me all the support I need for stunting, and my feet never feel sore even after long practices. They also are perfect for rumbling on hard surfaces and protect ur foot from hurting. Highly recommend them for any cheerleader
Great shoe!
The sizes aren’t accurate
Great shoes and fast shipping
Very comfortable, a little wide in the heel but i have a very narrow foot and still stays on well and doesn’t wiggle too much. I love the laces and how the tongue of the shoe does not move
Highly recommend! I just went to UCA Camp and they never hurt my feet even after 4 days straight.
The most comfortable by far, i am flat footed and wear orthotics. I Didn’t have to put my orthotics in
It's great to see that the sizing for The Phantom Cheer Shoes has improved and is now more consistent with normal street shoes. This change will definitely make it easier for customers to choose the right size, particularly for youth shoes. It's always helpful when brands take customer feedback into account and make changes to improve their products. Keep up the good work!
