FAQs

What is HeatGear® technology?

HeatGear® is Under Armour's original performance baselayer technology, designed to keep athletes cool, dry, and light. It's engineered to wick sweat away from the skin and provide superior coverage without weighing you down.

How does the fitted style benefit performance?

The fitted design acts like a second skin, minimizing friction and maximizing the fabric's ability to wick sweat. It also allows for a full range of motion without the material bunching or restricting movement.

Can I wear this shirt on its own without another layer?

Yes, you can wear it on its own, especially in warmer conditions or during intense workouts where breathability is key. However, it is designed as a baselayer, meaning its primary function is to be worn under other clothing for optimal performance.

What is the material composition of this shirt?

The shirt is typically made from a blend of 90% polyester and 10% elastane, providing a balance of durability, stretch, and moisture-wicking capabilities.

How should I wash the Under Armour HG Armour Fitted Short Sleeve?

Machine wash cold with like colors. Use non-chlorine bleach if needed. Do not use fabric softener and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.

What does 'hybrid raglan sleeve construction' mean?

This construction combines features of a raglan sleeve with a traditional set-in sleeve. It's designed to offer a greater range of motion in the shoulders and arms while maintaining a comfortable fit and seam placement.

Is this shirt suitable for very cold weather?

HeatGear® is designed for moderate to warmer temperatures. For colder conditions, Under Armour offers ColdGear® baselayers which provide insulation.

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels too tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the sizing chart. If the fit is still too restrictive, consider a regular fit option if available.

Sweat-wicking performance seems reduced

Check if fabric softener was used during washing, as this can impede moisture-wicking. Wash the garment again with a mild detergent, avoiding fabric softeners. Ensure the garment is not clogged with dirt or body oils.

Seams are causing irritation

While designed to minimize irritation, individual sensitivities can vary. Ensure the garment is the correct size and consider if the specific type of activity is causing friction.

Garment shows signs of wear prematurely

Review care instructions carefully. Avoid harsh detergents, excessive heat during drying, and prolonged exposure to abrasive surfaces. Ensure proper fit to prevent undue stress on seams.

Pros and Cons

  • Excellent sweat-wicking properties keep you dry.

  • Breathable mesh panels enhance ventilation during exertion.
  • Ergonomic seam placement prevents chafing and increases durability.
  • The fitted design allows for unrestricted movement.

Cons

  • The fitted style might feel restrictive for some users.
  • Primarily designed as a baselayer, may not be ideal as standalone outerwear for all activities.
