Merging the worlds of elite performance and unapologetic luxury, Under Armour has teamed up with high-end automotive design house Mansory for a bold new drop in football.
Real Madrid’s Toni Rüdiger is the face—and feet—of the Under Armour x Mansory collaboration, unveiling the Magnetico Elite 5 Mansory boots in training last week, and then during the FIFA Club World Cup, where Los Blancos cruised past Pachuca 3–1. It’s a move that shifts the needle on what football boots can represent. Inspired by Rüdiger’s own custom Mansory car, the Magnetico Elite 5 boots fuse brushed carbon aesthetics with aggressive orange detailing—a visual language straight out of a supercar showroom. But this isn’t just style for the sake of it. The boot boasts carbon fibre elements, a 3D-moulded heel counter, and a plush insole with precision stitching, ensuring that luxury doesn’t compromise performance.
“I love this collaboration,” said Rüdiger. “It is the perfect union between two brands that share the same relentless quest for innovation and performance in everything they do. The collection comes to life in a stunning fusion of sport and luxury.”
The reveal builds on the UA x Mansory link-up first teased at the NBA All Star Game earlier this year, where Stephen Curry laced up the UA Echo sneakers in a similarly slick black and yellow wrap. But with football now firmly in focus, the stakes—and style—just went up a gear.
Only 96 pairs of the Magnetico Elite 5 Mansory boots will be available worldwide, dropping Friday 27 June at prodirectsport.com/soccer
