FAQs
What is HeatGear®?
HeatGear® is Under Armour's original performance baselayer fabric, designed to be worn during warmer conditions or intense workouts to keep athletes cool, dry, and light.
Is this shirt suitable for cold weather?
While HeatGear® is designed to regulate temperature, it is primarily a moisture-wicking baselayer. For very cold weather, consider Under Armour's ColdGear® line for insulation.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
The shirt should fit snugly like a second skin without being uncomfortably restrictive. It should allow for full range of motion. Refer to the brand's sizing chart for specific measurements.
Can I wear this shirt without another layer on top?
Yes, it can be worn as a standalone shirt, especially for training sessions where maximum breathability and freedom of movement are desired. It is also designed to be layered effectively.
What is the difference between HeatGear® and Compression fit?
HeatGear® refers to the fabric technology focused on cooling and moisture-wicking. Compression fit describes how the garment sits on the body—tightly fitted to support muscles and reduce drag. This shirt utilizes HeatGear® fabric in a compression fit.
How should I wash this shirt to maintain its performance?
Machine wash cold with similar colors, use non-chlorine bleach only if needed, and tumble dry low. Avoid fabric softeners, ironing, and dry cleaning to preserve the fabric's technical properties.
What does the 'Hybrid Raglan Sleeve' mean?
This construction combines elements of raglan sleeves (seams run diagonally from the underarm to the shoulder) with traditional set-in sleeves. It is designed to provide a greater range of motion and comfort, particularly in the shoulder area.
Troubleshooting
Shirt feels too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If you prefer a less compressive fit, consider sizing up or looking for a 'loose fit' alternative.
Sweat not wicking effectively
Verify that fabric softeners or dryer sheets were not used during washing, as these can impede moisture-wicking properties. Ensure the garment is not overly worn or damaged.
Seam irritation
The ergonomic design aims to minimize this, but if irritation persists, double-check that the shirt is not inside out and that no debris is caught in the seams. Ensure the size is correct and not overly constrictive.
