words & interview // Nick DePaula
Even though Under Armour's Training category has been in the footwear game for a handful of years now, it isn't until this fall that they'll be launching their very first signature sneaker.
Why the wait?
They have an athlete in Cam Newton that's not only been getting it done on-field, as evidenced by his Rookie of the Year campaign last season, but he also brings a sense of style to the historically all-things-performance brand that allows them to enter a new space.
Ask anyone at Under Armour about what Cam brings to the table, and one of the first things they'll mention is his commitment and investment in the brand.
Afterall, the guy was regularly wearing as many as seventeen UA logos on Saturdays during his title run at Auburn.
To get a full breakdown of Under Armour Training's first signature, The Cam Highlight Trainer, Sole Collector caught up with UA Creative Director of Footwear Dave Dombrow. Whether it's the rich suede upper, sharply sculpted midfoot shank or logo hits and subtle accents throughout, dive into all of the detail and inspiration that went into The Cam below in this exclusive interview.
The Cam Highlight Trainer will retail for $150 and launches on Saturday, December 8th on Under Armour and at Foot Locker.
