Under Armour is located in Baltimore, Maryland, but that was not its original location. In 1996, Kevin Plank was only 23 years old when he had an idea to deal with his soaking wet t-shirts from playing football that would eventually change the way athletes and non-athletes deal with this problem. Kevin was a former University of Maryland special team captain, and needed a solution so he set out to develop a solution to his growing problem so he started a company called Under Armour that was based out of his grandmother’s basement in Georgetown, Washington DC.

In 1997, Under Armour introduced the Cool Gear line to keep you warm and dry on cooler days.…
