Under Armour does not renew WNBA shoe partnership for this season

Under Armour has not renewed its brand partnership with the WNBA, causing players to restrict their footwear choices. WNBA rules mandate players wear apparel from brands with league partnerships, which under the current CBA limits athletes to Nike-branded apparel. Some Under Armour athletes are modifying their shoes, either covering logos or wearing logo-less options., Dallas Wings center Li Yueru and Toronto Tempo guard Marina Mabrey have been seen using these methods. Other brands like Holo and Moolah Kicks have also created logo-less footwear to comply with league regulations.
