FAQs
What is HeatGear® fabric?
HeatGear® is Under Armour's original base layer designed to keep athletes cool, dry, and light. It's an ultra-lightweight material that provides superior coverage without adding bulk.
What does 'compression fit' mean?
Compression fit offers a snug, locked-in feel that supports muscles during intense activity. It's designed to be tight against the body without constricting movement.
Can I wear this shirt for everyday activities, not just sports?
Yes, while designed for athletic performance, the comfort and lightweight nature of the HeatGear® fabric make it suitable for casual wear, especially in warm conditions or for those who prefer a close-fitting layer.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the Under Armour sizing chart for apparel. The compression fit should feel snug and supportive, hugging your body without restricting breathing or movement.
What is the material composition?
The shirt is made of 87% Polyester and 13% Elastane.
Is this shirt suitable for very cold weather?
HeatGear® is primarily designed for warm conditions or as a base layer to manage sweat. For very cold weather, consider Under Armour's ColdGear® line.
How durable is the fabric?
The blend of polyester and elastane, combined with ergonomic flatlock seams, is designed for durability and resilience during regular athletic use and washing, provided care instructions are followed.
Troubleshooting
Shirt feels too tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check the size guide if unsure. If the size is correct, this may be due to personal preference for compression fit. Consider trying a non-compression fit garment if this is an issue.
Fabric is not wicking sweat effectively.
Check that fabric softeners or harsh detergents were not used during washing, as these can impair wicking capabilities. Ensure the garment is washed according to the care instructions.
Chafing occurs during activity.
While the flatlock seams are designed to prevent chafing, ensure the garment fits properly. A size too small can sometimes exacerbate chafing. Verify the garment is worn correctly with no bunching.
