As my editor Hilary Milnes wrote, it’s an interesting time to be a sports incumbent. Under Armour is figuring out how to compete in the fashion-sports arena with a focus on more fashion-forward apparel and footwear. I sat down with new Chief Product Officer Yassine Saidi and EMEA Managing Director Kevin Ross to understand the new vision.
“Yeah, it’s been fascinating to see Under Armour’s evolution. If you’d asked me two years ago if they could make the transition into streetwear, I would have said I don’t see it, but they’re definitely making the move. And it’s impressive.
Thanks Lucy Maguire for spending time with Under Armour last week. Pleasure to host you!
Amazing feature! Hilary is the best too :)
