Forget Compromise: Performance Has Never Looked This Good
There was a time when, for sports gear, you had to choose: you were either stylish, or you were high-performance. Either you had an appealing design, or you had the technology that made you go faster. Rarely did the two coexist in harmony. It almost seemed like an unwritten law: the more technically sound something was, the less it had to care about aesthetics.
Fortunately, that time has passed. Under Armour is launching HALO, and it’s not just a new collection; it’s a statement. It’s the platform where the brand dares more, where it pushes the boundaries to create something that didn’t exist before. HALO is the perfect meeting point—almost alchemical—between Form (aesthetics, design) and Function (performance, technology).
Here, we’re not just talking about dressing to train. We’re talking about wearing tools designed with great precision, where every line, every material, every technology serves one purpose: to let you express your full potential. It’s the union of the most advanced engineering and an aesthetic that isn’t afraid to be noticed.
The HALO Shoes: Three Souls for Your Every Need
The heart of the HALO collection is three innovative shoe models, designed to cover every need of the contemporary athlete, from the runner who trains every day to the functional training enthusiast.
UA HALO Runner: The Everyday Balance
Think of your everyday running shoe, but taken to the next level. The Runner is designed for daily road runs. The upper offers almost intangible comfort, as if you’re not even wearing it. Underneath, UA HOVR cushioning does its job: it reduces impact and returns energy with every step, pushing you forward. The midsole design, inspired by the logo, isn’t just for looks: it provides support and helps maintain an ideal gait even over longer distances. The durable rubber outsole ensures traction and energy return where you need it most. In short, it’s the tool for logging miles, day after day.
UA HALO Trainer: The Versatile Stability
Modern training is hybrid: HIIT, plyometrics, physical prep, bodyweight exercises. You go from the gym to the pavement, from synthetic turf to concrete. The Trainer was born for this. The lightweight upper ensures a perfect fit, with targeted perforations to optimize ventilation. But stability is its strength: a film at the ankle and an external counter lock the foot in, offering that crucial lateral support during changes of direction and jumps. UA HOVR cushioning absorbs impact and returns energy, while the rubber outsole with flex grooves guarantees traction and freedom of movement on any surface. It’s the shoe for those who demand stability and responsiveness in every training condition.
UA HALO Racer: The Responsive Push
When you’re looking for that something extra for your daily runs, the Racer comes into play. It shares the dynamic and comfortable upper with mesh inserts with the Runner, but adds two key elements for performance. First: a TPU plate integrated into the midsole, which adds support and, above all, a propulsive push with every step. Second: UA HOVR+ cushioning, which maximizes energy return while reducing impact. The logo-inspired midsole design offers support over long distances, and the rubber outsole is optimized for traction and responsiveness. It’s the choice for those who want to feel the road but also desire support and a constant push.
HALO Winter Apparel: Technology and Style Against the Cold
HALO isn’t just shoes. The collection is completed with a coordinated apparel line, designed to tackle winter training without sacrificing style or performance. Every piece is truly a concentrate of technology and design.
We find stretch fabrics that follow every movement, front panels with wind resistance, and the use of soft, elastic materials that retain heat but guarantee optimal breathability thanks to laser perforations in the right spots.
The UA Halo Run Jacket and the CW Vest use UA Storm technology, which repels water without compromising breathability. The UA Halo Cold Weather Tights and the Women’s Long-Sleeve Top integrate LYCRA ADAPTIV fiber for exceptional softness and comfort, adapting to your movements. Heat-sealed seams and ergonomic designs prevent chafing while keeping the design minimal.
Even the lighter pieces, like the Vent tanks or the Bonded Auxetic shirts, are designed for maximum ventilation and freedom of movement.
Beyond Performance: A Style for the Contemporary Athlete
HALO was born to push you beyond your limits, as I said. But it does so with a style that doesn’t go unnoticed. These aren’t pieces to be relegated just to the gym or the track. The attention to design, the focus on details, the balance between modern, evolved lines and functionality make every piece in the HALO collection a distinctive element of contemporary style. It’s the uniform for those who live sport not just as an activity, but as an integral part of their identity.
Under Armour HALO is more than a collection. It’s a vision. It’s proof that you no longer have to choose between looking good and performing well. You can have both.
