If you think Under Armour is just for pro ball players and maybe the high school lacrosse team, think again. Yes, it is the official outfitter for many college football teams, as well as for some professional soccer and rugby teams, but their revolutionary moisture wicking fabric is just as suitable to the weekend (or once-in-awhile) athlete. Originally created to be worn under athletic uniforms and pads, Under Armour now makes shorts, t-shirts, boxer briefs and compression underwear for the rest of us. Under Armour sports underwear is a leader in the field (no pun intended), not only because of its unique characteristics, like compression and superior moisture-wicking, but because Under Armour makes it easy for the consumer: Heatgear designates the apparel that you wear in the heat. Coldgear designates the apparel that you wear in the cold. That simple.
Their compression boxer jocks, which come in several lengths, are lightweight and breathable, with contoured and secure support. They also offer several lines of athletic clothing, perfect for workouts and training, including the Twister Short and several styles of Microshort, with generous fit, superb stretch and legendary moisture wicking properties. UnderArmour also makes a performance jock with cup pocket—part of their Heatgear collection.
Underarmour t-shirts include the loose short sleeve and sleevless T's, with a generous comfortable fit, anti-microbial properties for an odor-free workout, and Under Armor's unique temperature regulation.
Under Armour has your feet covered, too. Their all-season Gear athletic socks are available in crew-length, low-cut and the popular no-show style. Underarmor socks include knit-in arch support, air vents, odor control, and moisture wicking to keep hard-working feet healthy and dry.
Founded in 1996 by a former University of Maryland football player, Underarmour began with a plan to design a t-shirt that would wick away moisture and provide compression. From there the line expanded to its unique line of microfiber gear, designed to regulate temperature and enhance performance. And so, the performance product industry was born.
Under Armour fabrics are the result of innovative research and design. They are constantly engineering textile innovations and introducing new technologies to improve their products. Their mission: to make all athletes better through passion, science and the relentless pursuit of innovation.
