HARMAN International Industries, Incorporated (NYSE:HAR), the premier connected technologies company for automotive, consumer and enterprise markets, and Under Armour (NYSE:UA, UA.C), the originator of athletic performance gear, have combined forces to bring two revolutionary sport headphones to the market. The award-winning UA Sport Wireless Heart Rate Headphones and UA Sport Wireless Headphones, both Engineered by JBL^®, will hit shelves in November, and are available for pre-order now at JBL.com and UA.com. These headphones will bring athletes a world-class music and fitness experience, pairing Under Armour’s athletic performance with JBL’s legendary audio.

The flagship model, UA Sport Wireless Heart Rate delivers energizing music and heart rate tracking in an all-in-one design. Featuring an in-ear heart rate monitor and a touch control for on-demand access to your heart rate, the UA Sport Wireless Heart Rate allows athletes to access real-time information they need to maximize their workout including heart rate tracking with audio feedback and heart rate zone coaching, powered by UA Record^TM. In addition, consumers can enjoy seamless integration with Under Armour’s Connected Fitness ecosystem. Connection to UA Band^TM allows athletes to easily see their heart rate zone through a multi-colored LED display. 

The next generation of the UA Sport Wireless headphones will feature a 35% smaller ear tip design and fit a wider range of ear profiles. In addition, the UA Sport Wireless boasts a new 2-piece ear tip design that gives athletes a more custom fit with several possible combinations. The UA Sport Wireless Heart Rate and UA Sport Wireless Headphones will be available in black and white color options.

Pairing JBL’s signature sound with Under Armour’s best-in-class standards for premium sport performance, both models of headphones are built for durability and feature an IPX5 rating built to withstand sweat and water. In addition, JBL’s Twistlock™ technology ensures the headphones will never fall out while the Flexsoft™ finishing provides long-lasting comfort. Both products are Bluetooth wireless, providing less restrictions and more freedom in the gym or on the pavement.
