Product Information
Full details
The Under Armour Baselayer Top is designed for adult male athletes who require a high-performance, moisture-wicking garment for intense training sessions. Its primary benefit is a secure, streamlined fit that moves with your body, though users should note that the fitted cut is designed to sit very close to the skin, which may require sizing up if a looser feel is preferred.

FAQs
Is this top considered compression or fitted?
It features a 'fitted' design, meaning it sits close to the skin but is generally slightly less aggressive than a true compression garment.
Can I wear this as a standalone shirt?
Yes, it is designed for training intensity and works well as a standalone top, though it is thin and intended to show off the physique.
Does it offer sun protection?
While the fabric provides a layer of cover, it is not specifically rated for UV protection.
What is the best way to wash this to avoid stretching?
Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle and avoid using high heat in the dryer to keep the fibers elastic.
Is the fabric prone to pilling?
The lightweight fabric is durable, but to minimize pilling, avoid washing it with rough items like denim or garments with zippers.
Troubleshooting
The garment feels too tight across the chest or shoulders.
The product is designed as a fitted compression-style garment; consider sizing up if you prefer a less restrictive fit.
Fabric holds onto odors after intense workouts.
Ensure the garment is washed immediately after use and use a sports-specific laundry detergent to break down sweat and body oils.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a technical garment, proper maintenance is required to preserve its elasticity and moisture-wicking capabilities. Always wash the top in cold water with similar synthetic fabrics. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can coat the fibers and interfere with the moisture-wicking technology. Air drying is highly recommended to maintain the integrity of the fabric's shape, though it can be tumble-dried on a low, cool setting if necessary. The top is fully compatible as a primary layer for gym workouts or as an under-layer for contact sports or outdoor team activities.
