The head covering has been designed for Muslim athletes around the world.
The hijab has been made from specially constructed mesh fabric which offers optimum breathability and absorbs any moisture; the material is cut extra-long so it will not come untucked during workouts and the stretchy fabric also ensures easy headphone access, all of these features ensure maximum comfort and practicality for users.
Jennifer Smith, Senior Designer at Under Armour has said in a statement: “Our team worked diligently to launch a quality sport hijab that will meet the performance needs of its user and ensure all female athletes are covered from head to toe no matter their size, level of performance or religion.”
Saman Munir, personal trainer is the first hijabi athlete to be sponsored by Under Armour and is the face of the campaign.
