The comeback of the Under Armour Forge 96

With the launch of the Under Armour Sportstyle line's second season, 3 new colors were presented of the Forge 96. The design of the sneaker is inspired by the model from the '90s but does not renounce to experiment on materials, variation, which for 23 years has made the brand a point of reference for sports equipment.

An elaborate upper, in mesh and nubuck, made with great technical quality, mixed leather, suede and reflective details in 3M. The midsole, as well as the insole, are made of EVA foam to help cushioning, with an additional stabilizing volume on the heel, made in TPU and in white in all three models. The first pack will be sold in a limited edition and consists of 3 new colorways, a barley/black, which takes advantage of the contrast between black and beige, aqua foam/mod gray, with softer colors, and finally an impulse pink/jet gray, a really interesting color edition.

The performance apparel of Under Armor stands out in the lookbook shot by the Baltimore photographer Davin Allen, head of a project that involved a group of creatives based in his own native city, a group of young artists to revive the culture in the city of Maryland. The shots are taken on the streets and on city buses and the models/athletes, with the new Forge 96 at their feet, fully embody the idea of union between style and sportswear, that is at the base of the UA philosophy.
