Kuala Lumpur, 23 July 2025 – Under Armour has officially unveiled its latest footwear innovation: the UA Halo Collection, a bold new chapter in performance design tailored for everyday athletes.

Design Meets Performance: What Makes UA Halo Different

At the heart of the Halo collection is a design evolution: Under Armour’s iconic double-arch logo is now embedded directly into the shoe’s structure, serving both as a visual signature and a functional element that enhances balance, stability, and support. This architectural integration reflects a unified design philosophy where form and function work seamlessly together.

Complementing this is UA’s HOVR+ cushioning technology, which delivers exceptional energy return and impact absorption—ensuring every run, rep, and movement feels smooth and supported.
