FAQs
What is HeatGear® fabric?
HeatGear® is Under Armour's original performance base layer, designed to keep athletes cool, dry, and light. It's engineered to wick sweat away from the skin and dry rapidly.
Are these shorts suitable for running?
Yes, the lightweight fabric, moisture-wicking properties, and anti-chafing design make them very suitable for running.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
The shorts should fit snugly without restricting movement. The waistband should sit comfortably at your natural waist, and the fabric should contour smoothly to your body. Refer to the Under Armour sizing chart for specific measurements.
Can I wear these without underwear?
These shorts are designed to be worn as a base layer or standalone. The fabric and construction provide support and comfort, allowing for wear without additional underwear if preferred.
What is the purpose of the Strength Pocket™?
The drop-in Strength Pocket™ is a specially designed pocket on the right side of the shorts intended for secure, convenient storage of essential items like a smartphone or keys during workouts.
How long is the inseam on these shorts?
The inseam on these shorts is 9 inches.
What material are the shorts made of?
The body of the shorts is made of 84% Polyester and 16% Elastane. The mesh panels are made of 92% Polyester and 8% Elastane.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the compression is still too intense, consider trying a size up or a different style of Under Armour shorts with a looser fit. Note that a compression fit is intended to be snug.
Pocket is not secure enough for items.
The Strength Pocket™ is designed for snug-fitting items like smartphones. Ensure the item is placed correctly within the pocket and the shorts are a proper fit to minimize movement during activity.
Fabric loses elasticity or performance after washing.
Follow the care instructions precisely. Avoid using fabric softeners, high heat drying, or ironing, as these can degrade the specialized fabric properties over time.
Chafing occurs during activity.
Verify the size is correct. The ergonomic seam placement and flat-lock stitching are designed to minimize chafing, but a very poor fit can still cause irritation. Ensure the shorts are lying flat against the skin.
