Under Armour

[Toronto Villa]

You are going to see them a lot more in golf this season with their partnership with Jordan Speith. They are big in the US across the major sports, and it's only a matter of time before they secure some prominent footballers in Europe.

I was quite happy with the quality of their gear too, but I've got a compression running top that has basically fallen apart. It looks like it's glued rather than stitched, and the arms have come off at the shoulders.

[MillerBall]

Given the fact that Villa have well and truly fallen apart this season (after having looked threadbare for several years) it would appear that the link with Under Armour would be a match made in heaven (or perhaps a second hand clothes shop) if it is the case that some of their garments do not last the course.

Would Under Armour be able to supply a shirt that would fit Mr Agbonlahor? Mind you Gabby would not really need "running" kit after his performance at Man City a few weeks ago.

on a related note, under armour announced a 7-year deal with southampton last week.

Not a fan of Under Armour, I honesty think Spurs kit design is absolutely horrendous..
Would have preferred adidas or umbro but it's not to be, not that I will buy any of them anyway under current circumstances...

Has it been officially announced yet?

[Des Little]

No, the bloke who was doing the announcement has been laid off.

Sounds about right

Be nice if we started acting like a big club again and get someone who we have heard of. Under Armour, a truly household name.

Is this a joke?

Has it been officially announced yet?

Definitely happening though. Will also be worth less than it would of been now we've been relegated. I believe that we have a better deal in the championship with UA that we would of done had we stayed with Macron.

 but are New Balance popular in the UK/Europe?

New balance more popular with athletics in sunny England mate but they sell well/popular in Europe.

Under Armour gear is decent, one of the more well known brands in the sports and fitness industry (behind Nike and Adidas) but is generally pricey. Be interested to see what the shirt will cost..probably about £60. Hope the design is ok though. They have some decent kits out there but also some absolute shockers.

Under Armour have become huge in North America. Like I said at the start of all of this is just look at their stable of US sports athletes. They are becoming a serious rival to Nike out here. And college sports is arguably every bit as big as professional sports in the US.

Before our resident experts on all-things to do with American sport turn on me, I know that U.S. collegiate sport is a completely different animal to the one we're used to over here, but nonetheless that figure is an eye-watering amount to pay for the privilege of students wearing your kit.
