Many athletes and fitness enthusiasts around the globe have been grappling over how or when training will be possible to resume as it was before Covid-19 set in—but Under Armour is aiming to make working out while social distancing a little more comfortable thanks to their new first-of-its-kind face mask designed for physical performance.
“At Under Armour, we always want to be part of the solution, especially during this extremely challenging time,” said Patrik Frisk, CEO of Under Armour, in a press release. “We specifically designed this mask for athletes and for all of us who want to exercise and train while also keeping ourselves, and those around us, safe.”
The face masks were made available today in Under Armour's stores at Orchard Central, Funan Mall and VivoCity as well as online, priced at $35 each. However, the masks are currently sold out and will only be available in August, according to Under Armour's website.
Additional colours of the mask will be available in the coming months.
