Orchard Gateway Store Showcases Hero Zone & More

The Under Armour store at Orchard Gateway employs the region’s first ever store concept. The store’s interiors of wood, steel walls and bolts evoke an industrial and gym atmosphere while other store elements will reflect the high energy of Under Armour – an echo to the brand’s signature ethos of gritty determination, passion and intensity.

Michael Binger, Chief Executive Officer and co-founder of Triple (the exclusive distributor of Under Armour in Southeast Asia), adds,

“For many athletes in Singapore and Southeast Asia, the store will be their introduction to the brand. We have crafted a provocative yet relevant experiential concept for the Orchard Gateway store that once the customer steps into the store, he or she will fully experience what it means to be athletic or an athlete; and most importantly, what it means to be part of the Under Armour community. It is our way of speaking directly to our consumers and to create meaningful relationships that will last for years to come.”

With a statuesque Under Armour logo situated at the storefront, the retail store features a Hero Zone built to showcase key products and its stories. A footwear zone will be dedicated to housing some of the brand’s most innovative footwear. Aimed to create an immersive experience for shoppers, the store will also feature multidimensional short films to provide information and showcase Under Armour’s athletes.
