Under Armour is enhancing women’s basketball footwear and off-court fashion by launching the “Plum” editions of the Breakthru 5 and Appartition, just in time for the 30th birthday of WNBA superstar Kelsey Plum.

The Breakthru 5 “Plum” variant stands out in this lineup, featuring a deep plum shade and metallic details that pay tribute to Kelsey Plum’s identity and striking presence on the basketball floor.

Created specifically for female athletes, this shoe advances Under Armour’s endeavor to produce performance-oriented apparel that caters to women. The Breakthru 5 utilizes UA Flow technology, which provides a lightweight, resilient outsole that exhibits exceptional traction, facilitating agile and accurate movements throughout play.

Moreover, UA HOVR cushioning delivers superb energy return, enabling athletes to maintain their top performance levels throughout demanding matches. Its high-top design also offers an added layer of ankle support, making it a preferred choice for players requiring stability during pivotal moments.

Included in the series is the Under Armour Apparition, a multifaceted sneaker that merges performance-oriented features with lifestyle charm.

The Apparition showcases an immaculate white layout accented with understated plum details, crafting a sophisticated appearance that easily transitions into everyday wear. This sneaker is constructed with UA HOVR cushioning, ensuring a pleasant and reactive experience that benefits both athletes and supporters.

Kelsey Plum’s collaboration with Under Armour is evident throughout this collection, with her influence visible in every design aspect. From the game-ready Breakthru 5 to the chic and adaptable Apparition, these sneakers represent Plum’s mark on the sport and the brand’s dedication to empowering female athletes.

    The Boston Celtics’ season is unfolding just as they had envisioned, with only one loss to report and a striking 30 points per game average from their star player, Jayson Tatum.

    After a more eventful off-season than what championship teams typically endure, Tatum and his Boston teammates have skillfully tuned out distractions, staying focused on their goal of repeating their success early in the season. In line with this theme, the upcoming #0 Jordan Tatum 3 is about to launch a “Zen” colorway that embodies this same sense of tranquility.

    The motif of serenity has been a consistent element in Jayson Tatum’s sneaker line, especially highlighted by the “Vortex” version of the Tatum 2, which explicitly connects to this theme: our previous coverage noted that the design reflects Tatum’s calm demeanor, reminiscent of the peacefulness found in a vortex above water.

    While this new model opts for a more subdued color palette, its execution remains true to that original concept; the graceful cut-outs in the upper design resemble calm waters, serving as a guiding inspiration throughout Tatum’s signature collection.

    As mentioned earlier, the Jordan Tatum 3 “Zen” is set to launch on November 14th via Nike.com, available in sizes for the whole family. The adult versions will be priced at $125.

    For a closer look at this appealing colorway, check out the official images below, and make sure to keep an eye on our Sneakers page for updates.

    Jason Kelce’s Field Goal Attempt In Timberlands Will End In A $100,000 Donation

    This Saturday, November 2nd, Jason Kelce will take on a field goal challenge while wearing Wheat Timbs during the ESPN College GameDay broadcast of the highly anticipated Penn State vs. Ohio State matchup. The idea for this challenge originated when college student Daniel Villasenor successfully kicked a field goal in Vans checkerboard slip-ons, winning an impressive $100,000 earlier in October.

    Initially discussed on the Kelce brothers’ New Heights podcast with special guest Pat McAfee, this lighthearted challenge quickly evolved into a real event. The NFL legend, Jason Kelce, is set to attempt scoring three points while donning the famous Wheat Timberlands.

    In an exciting twist, VF Corp — the parent company of both Vans and Timberland — has stepped in with a generous $100,000 commitment to the charity Soles4Souls, aimed at supporting hurricane relief efforts. Fortunately for Jason, VF Corp has assured that the funds will be donated regardless of whether his kick is successful or not.

    Make sure to tune in to ESPN College GameDay on November 2nd, 2024, to witness this unique field goal attempt for yourself!
