FAQs
What is HeatGear®?
HeatGear® is Under Armour's original performance base layer fabric. It's designed to be ultra-lightweight, wicking sweat away from the skin and drying quickly to keep athletes cool, dry, and light.
What does 'compression fit' mean?
Compression fit means the garment is designed to be snug against your body, offering muscle support and a locked-in feel without restricting movement. It's intended to enhance performance and aid recovery.
Can I wear this for everyday activities?
While it's designed for athletic performance, many people find the comfort and moisture-wicking properties suitable for everyday wear, especially in warmer conditions or for active lifestyles.
How do I know what size to order?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. The compression fit should feel snug but not overly restrictive. If you are between sizes, consider your preference for a tighter or slightly looser fit.
Is this suitable for very cold weather?
HeatGear® is optimized for warmer conditions or high-intensity activity where overheating is a concern. For very cold weather, Under Armour offers ColdGear® products designed for insulation.
What are the benefits of the flatlock seams?
Ergonomic flatlock seams are designed to lie flat against your skin, significantly reducing the risk of chafing and irritation during intense physical activity.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels less moisture-wicking over time
Ensure you are not using fabric softeners, as they can clog the fabric's performance fibers. Follow the recommended washing instructions strictly.
Chafing despite flatlock seams
Verify you have selected the correct size. An improperly fitting garment, even with flatlock seams, can cause irritation. Ensure the garment is washed correctly and not worn with rough external layers directly against it.
Garment losing elasticity
Avoid high heat drying and ironing, as these can damage the elastane fibers. Stick to low heat tumble dry and do not iron.
