The Under Armour Highlight MC, initially released around 2016, emerged as a high-performance football cleat designed to provide superior ankle support and enhance player speed. Its creation was a direct response to the demands of professional athletes seeking a combination of protection and agility on the field, establishing a new standard in cleat design.
Primarily engineered for the rigors of football, the Highlight MC excels in providing athletes with a competitive edge, but is also suitable for lacrosse. Its design prioritizes powerful movements in all directions, with a UA Scatter Traction cleat plate and lightweight, bladed cleats for optimal grip. The inclusion of high-rebound SuperFoam® in the insole delivers exceptional shock absorption and comfort during intense gameplay.
The Highlight MC has profoundly impacted the world of football and lacrosse, becoming a staple for athletes seeking both performance and style. This cleat's impact is visible through the players who have chosen to wear it. The design has influenced the aesthetics of athletic footwear, with its bold silhouette and high-cut design, inspiring many imitations. The Highlight MC has solidified Under Armour's place in the athletic footwear market.
The Highlight MC boasts an engineered textile upper fortified with a structural 3D printed cage, ensuring both durability and a secure fit. It incorporates a unique internal low-top design, complemented by a minimal compressive collar and a laceless neoprene collar with speed straps, facilitating customized support. The integration of UA ClutchFit® technology, mirroring a second-skin wrap, further enhances the cleat's powerful support.
