Under Armour hoodie

Under Armour is a prominent American sports equipment company that manufactures footwear, sports, and casual apparel. Founded in 1996 by Kevin Plank, a former University of Maryland football player, the brand initially gained fame for its moisture-wicking synthetic fabric T-shirts designed to be worn under jerseys.

Today, Under Armour is a global brand that remains independently owned by Under Armour, Inc. While the brand originated in Baltimore, Maryland, its manufacturing processes are widely distributed across various countries in Southeast Asia and Central America, including Vietnam, Jordan, Malaysia, and Cambodia, to support its international supply chain requirements. The company has evolved from a niche performance apparel brand into one of the largest athletic wear corporations in the world, competing globally with other major sportswear giants.
