SPORTS DRIPS: The latest sportswear trends from around the world

In this week’s SPORTS DRIPS, we will be looking at the latest sportswear trends from sports around the world, and from time to time we will drop into the past to give you that nostalgic feeling on some of the legendary sports gear from all the brands that have been dominant in the market across various sporting codes from running to basketball to football.

The focus will be on how the technology and design impacts each sport and we will also be letting you know which icon uses these items.

Are you back at the gym or hitting the road? Technology is always moving fast and runners’ demands are growing as the bar gets higher. Disrupting the market with innovation and meeting the athlete where they need us is what Under Armour does best.

The UA HOVR Machina 3 continues to deliver softer landings without losing efficiency or speed. The totally new midsole design of the UA HOVR Machina 3 enhances smooth landings without losing responsiveness or explosive lift-offs. Every element of the design — from the aerodynamic heel to the engineered spacer mesh upper — delivers everything the runner needs and nothing they don’t.

“The UA HOVR Machina 3 delivers the next evolution of UA HOVR technology On Cloud Sneakers with a softer heel and more responsive forefoot for explosive takeoffs. ‘Faster, Softer, Lighter’ have been the driving experiential factors that have informed the Machina series’ design and function, and the latest edition delivers on these performance tenets like never before.” Douglas Smiley, Product Director for Compete Run Footwear at Under Armour.

The UA HOVR Machina 3 launches in South Africa in June 2022 and is priced at R 3,299.00, it will be available online: https://underarmour.co.za/ and at UA Brand Houses across SA. From me at Sports Drips: Keep moving, stay warm and stay safe.
