The immersive “Protect This Earth” installation that turned heads at Milan Design Week is making its U.S. debut—exclusively at the Under Armour Brand House in Baltimore.
Under Armour and zero-plastic pioneer UNLESS have teamed up on a first-of-its-kind capsule: a fully regenerative sportswear collection made entirely from plants. No plastic. No waste. Designed to perform—then decompose.
THE DETAILSLocation: Under Armour Brand House, 101 Performance Dr., Baltimore Launch Date: April 22 (Earth Day) Store Hours: 10 AM – 9 PM Availability: In-store only through mid-June or until sold out. Not available online or any other retail locations.
The capsule features hoodies, tees, and shorts across men’s, women’s, and unisex styles ($30–$160). Select elements of the original Milan installation—including the immersive “Protect This Earth” experience—will be reimagined in-store, giving visitors a deeper look at the product lifecycle from plants to performance to compost.
This is just the beginning—the next evolution of sportswear made for athletes and built for the planet.
Juneteenth celebration brings to mind how enslaved people stopped work and demanded equitable compensation. In the spirit of fair wages for fair work, I would like to see my SR community collectively stop working in place for 19 seconds on 19 June at 10 a.m. in solidarity with those who have courageously done just that upon hearing the abolishment of slavery, for those who are retired, vacationing, or working virtually, to do likewise.
