UNDER ARMOUR GLOBAL HERO RANGE

-

AS WE HEAD from spring into summer and the temperatur­es start to rise, having the right apparel for those training days out in the heat is more important than ever, and Under Armour has got you covered. The GHL or ‘Global Hero Looks’ range incorporat­es a selection of items, from running shorts and fitted T-shirts, to tights and shoes, primarily for runners, but well suited to all manner of training strategies too.

The TriBase Reign 3 Training Shoes feature a breathable mesh upper and a bootie constructi­on, with reinforcem­ent added in key areas, ensuring support and traction when you’re in the gym.

The Breeze Run Short Sleeve top is lightweigh­t, rubs less (yep, this means less chance of chafing), dries fast, and is resistant to wear, and anti-odour tech keeps the fabric from retaining any manky smells.

The Iso-Chill Perforated Leggings are made from game-changing fabric that extracts heat away from the skin, helping to keep you cool even during extreme exercise. There’s even a bonded pocket on the outside of the right leg, big enough to accommodat­e an iPhone 11.

But if you prefer your legs uncovered for training, the Stretch Woven Shorts could be the way to go. They boast nextto-skin comfort without being tight, and feature breathable fabric that quickly repels moisture. There are open pockets, as well as a zippered side pocket to stash light valuables.

Under Armour is constantly innovating to find new ways to keep you comfortabl­e while you’re active. And after a long and chilly winter, we’re sure that outside and active is what you’ll want to be.

RRP from R899 – R2 299 underarmou­r.co.za
