FAQs
What is HeatGear fabric and what are its main benefits?
HeatGear is Under Armour's signature superlight performance fabric designed to keep you cool, dry, and light in warmer conditions. Its main benefits include superior coverage without added weight, active sweat-wicking, and quick-drying properties.
Is the compression fit comfortable for all-day wear?
The ultratight, second-skin fit of this garment is primarily designed for performance during athletic activities, supporting muscles and enhancing comfort during movement. While many find it comfortable, some may prefer a looser fit for casual, all-day wear.
How does the anti-odor technology work?
The integrated anti-odor technology works by preventing the growth of odor-causing microbes on the fabric surface. This helps to keep your garment fresh and extends its wear time between washes.
Can I wear this compression long sleeve for any type of sport or workout?
Yes, its stretchy material, hybrid raglan sleeves for enhanced range of motion, and advanced moisture-wicking properties make it highly versatile and suitable for a wide range of sports, training activities, and as a base layer in various conditions.
What is the purpose of the locker tag?
The write-in locker tag located on the back of the neck allows you to personalize your top with your initials or a number. This feature is particularly useful for easy identification in team settings, shared locker rooms, or when owning multiple similar items.
Why can't I use fabric softener when washing this garment?
Fabric softeners can create a coating on the technical fibers of the garment, which can hinder its ability to effectively wick away moisture and interfere with the anti-odor technology. To maintain optimal performance, it's best to avoid them.
What is the material composition of the long sleeve?
The main body of the garment is composed of 84% polyester and 16% elastane. The mesh panels, which provide strategic ventilation, are made of 92% polyester and 8% elastane.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels too tight or restrictive, hindering movement.
The HeatGear Compression Long Sleeve is designed for an ultratight, second-skin fit. While snug, it should not restrict breathing or circulation. Ensure you have selected the correct size according to Under Armour's sizing chart. If discomfort persists, a larger size might be more appropriate for your body type.
Unpleasant odor persists after washing.
While equipped with anti-odor technology, improper washing can affect its efficacy. Always machine wash cold with like colors and avoid using fabric softeners, as they can trap odor-causing bacteria within the fibers. Consider using an athletic apparel-specific detergent.
Material seems to lose its elasticity or stretch over time.
The elastane in the fabric can be sensitive to high heat. Ensure you are tumble drying on low heat and never iron the garment. High temperatures can degrade the elastic fibers, leading to a loss of compression and fit.

Care Instructions:
- Machine Wash: Wash cold with like colors to preserve fabric integrity and color.
- Bleach: Use only non-chlorine bleach when absolutely needed.
- Drying: Tumble dry low to prevent heat damage to the elastic fibers.
- Ironing: Do not iron, as high heat can damage the fabric's performance properties.
