The Under Armour HeatGear Shorty is engineered for optimal performance during high-intensity junior athletic activities. The HeatGear® fabric actively manages body temperature by wicking sweat away, ensuring the wearer stays cool and dry, whether practicing soccer drills, running track, or engaging in gymnastics. Its 4-way stretch fabric means there's no restriction during dynamic movements, allowing for full range of motion needed in various sports. The compression fit provides gentle support to muscles, which can contribute to reduced vibration and fatigue, giving young athletes a slight edge during prolonged effort. The strategic mesh panels further enhance breathability, making these shorts suitable for warm weather or indoor training sessions. The exposed elastic waistband ensures the shorts stay securely in place without digging in, allowing athletes to focus on their performance.
These shorts are ready to wear right out of the package. They are compatible with a wide range of athletic tops and footwear. For optimal performance and longevity, follow these care instructions carefully:
