When did the West Coast determine fashion trends again? I used to laugh at the people from the West Coast in college. I know my sneaker obsessed sons and loving their UA so I know it has street cred. When basketball playing black boys (mine) starting wearing UA, take it to the bank.

Lucky for me, then, that my OCD financed the purchase of a second home on the West coast. (FYI Steve Jobs was described as an OCD PITA, and that seems to have worked out quite well for Apple).

Does anyone else just wear UA to workout in? I LOVE UA because they fit me well and don't cause me to chafe or get "chub rub" when I run. I've also them to look more flattering than other brands on me.

I don't wear them to gain street cred or look fashion forward.


Good fit and quality, with workout gear that does not chafe, can be said to be true of many brands. Over the years I have worn workout clothes from, among others, Adidas, Athleta, Brooks, New Balance, Lululemon, Nike, and Under Armour. Athleta and Brooks have fit me particularly well and comfortably, and have held up wash after wash. So athletic people like you and me PP, make up the core market of any brand.

What takes an athletic brand into the big leagues though, and helps them transcend and surpass the rest of the market, are things like team or league contracts, celebrity endorsements, a cool factor, cutting edge design, and broader fashionista appeal.

I was kind of expecting arguments back and forth on why people believed that Under Armour would succeed and attacking the OP of this thread.

I think there were barely any comments about the subject or at least a lot less than I expected.


which makes it all the more creepy that OP has been holding onto this for 2 years


Completely, like OP has been weirdly waiting for this moment to post about UA stock, monitoring it every day, for 2 years.

Smart and successful businessmen and women are always looking for ways to improve their product, rather than bury their heads in the sand and say that everything is perfect as-is. However, this being a city of risk-averse lawyers, I am not surprised that the majority reaction to the OP in this case is to defend the status quo.


Sure thing, OP

Can't speak for others bc I don't GAF about UA and am not defending anything. Just laughing at your weird need to be right about some old thread that no one remembers

Haven't really been following Under Armour but it is one of those stocks that I kick myself about.

When it first went public, some naysayers talked about how their technology wasn't patented and there was something else about it. I think the quality or what not. Can't remember the details.

So decided to skip on it only to watch it go up. And have been seeing more of it's product placements in movies and how it branched out to other things like shoes and have deals with some celebrities.

Like I said, haven't been following it as much. I started to follow it again a little bit before the split but stopped looking when it split. But it might be a good time to buy if the price is low right now.


if the rumors about the MLB deal are true....[i]


Well you are right, the Under Armour deal to provide all of the uniforms for MLB starting in 2020 should certainly help. The timing couldn't be better for UA.

Believe me, I want the local boy to succeed. And I am sure that as a successful businessperson, Kevin Plank can take any critique and run with it.
