Under Armour and Marine Serre reinterpret the baselayer The collaboration launches on June 5 and revisits the American brand’s 2000s sportswear archive through fashion and movement

Under Armour presents its first collaboration with Marine Serre: a limited edition capsule collection available from 5 June. The project arrives in the year the American brand celebrates its 30th anniversary and takes shape from the sportswear archive of the early 2000s, reinterpreted through the lens of the French maison, which has become one of the most influential in contemporary fashion.

Marine Serre has built her own creative language by dismantling the traditional codes of clothing and reassembling them into new forms. This collaboration also draws on her experience as a former professional tennis player, bringing to the project a vision grounded in rigour, control and attention to the body in motion: she explained that sport has always been part of her life and that, with Under Armour, she wanted to explore the beauty of movement through garments capable of uniting performance, precision and aesthetics, starting from the element closest to the body and the athlete's experience.

The baselayer thus becomes the central focus of the capsule. For Under Armour it represents the product from which everything began: a garment designed to endure, refined over time through dialogue with athletes and built to adapt to different sports and conditions. For Marine Serre, it recalls the "Second Skin", the form-fitting layer with the Moon motif that is among the most recognisable signatures of the maison.

It is not treated here solely in its technical function but reinterpreted through Marine Serre's lens as something that can go beyond performance alone: the place where body and discipline meet. From this dialogue emerges a collection that crosses the boundary between sport and street, built around intention, elegance and respect for movement and for the body in all its forms.

The aesthetic language of the capsule is essential and controlled. The lines are clean, the contrasts between black and white are sharp, and the garments are made with HeatGear, one of Under Armour's signature technologies. This choice evokes the concentration and intensity of sport at the highest levels, while simultaneously being placed within an imagery closer to contemporary fashion.

One of the main graphic elements is a print created specifically for the collaboration: Marine Serre's Moon motif is fused with Under Armour's heartbeat logo, bringing together two symbols tied to the idea of discipline, identity and progress.

From the archives also returns the UA Proto Speed II, reissued for the first time since the late 2000s. The sneaker maintains its connection to the original model through a layered textile base and sculpted leather panels, but is updated with silicone details and the Under Armour x Marine Serre logo on the toe and upper.

Yuron White, SVP and GM of Sportswear and Collabs at Under Armour, also connected the collaboration to the idea of discipline: "Both in training and in design, progress comes from conscious repetition and the precision with which every gesture is executed," he stated. "Starting from the baselayer felt almost natural. It is the element closest to the body, the point where our two visions were truly able to meet in a natural and authentic way."

The limited edition capsule will launch on 5 June exclusively on marineserre.com, at selected Marine Serre stockists and through an immersive pop-up experience in Paris, open from 5 to 7 June.
