The 'All America' variant of the Under Armour Blur Pro, a collaborative effort with artist Joshua Vides, was conceived as part of the UA Next All-America Collection. This collection marked a significant partnership, blending Under Armour's athletic performance with Vides' distinct artistic vision. The release was strategically timed to coincide with the UA Next All-America Game Week, amplifying its impact within the high school athletic community and beyond.
Primarily designed as football cleats, the Blur Pro 'All America' is engineered for game-breaking speed, specifically targeting high school football players. Its biomechanical plate promotes agility, while the UA HOVR drop-in midsole offers responsive cushioning. The shoe's snug, sock-like fit, facilitated by a knit collar, ensures optimal comfort and lockdown, enhancing the wearer's performance on the field.
The 'All America' Blur Pro immediately made its presence felt at the UA Next All-America Game Week in Orlando, Florida, in January 2025. This premier event, featuring elite high school athletes, showcased the shoe's integration within the football community. The collaboration also gained attention through its association with Diana Flores, the NFL Flag ambassador, who was seen wearing the shoe during the UA Next All-America Game Week, further solidifying its presence within the sport.
The 'All America' Blur Pro is meticulously crafted with a full UA IntelliKnit upper, providing targeted stretch and support, alongside an ultra-thin TPU skin for lightweight durability. The design incorporates Joshua Vides' signature black-and-white aesthetic, featuring dynamic graphic prints inspired by track spikes. The shoe's construction emphasizes both performance and visual appeal, embodying a fusion of art and athletic engineering.
