Product Information

Full details

The Under Armour HeatGear Elite Fitted Short Sleeve is designed for athletes and active individuals who require a lightweight, high-performance base layer for intense training sessions. Its primary benefit is the combination of ultra-soft HeatGear fabric and innovative NEOLAST fibers, which deliver superior moisture-wicking and durable four-way stretch without the environmental impact of traditional elastane. A key caveat to consider is its 'fitted' cut, which sits close to the body; those who prefer a loose, relaxed fit may need to size up for comfort.

FAQs

What is the difference between HeatGear and standard polyester?

HeatGear is specifically engineered for warm-weather performance, focusing on extreme lightness and advanced moisture transport, whereas standard polyester may not offer the same breathability or specialized moisture management.

Does the NEOLAST material affect the shirt's fit?

NEOLAST provides a powerful, structural stretch that allows the shirt to maintain its fitted shape effectively during movement without feeling overly restrictive.

Can I wear this as a base layer under a jacket?

Yes, its lightweight, low-profile design makes it an excellent base layer for layering in various conditions.

Is this shirt suitable for swimming?

While the fabric is durable and quick-drying, it is optimized for gym and athletic training and is not intended as a replacement for dedicated swimwear.

How should I choose the right size?

This is a 'fitted' garment, meaning it is designed to be worn close to the skin. If you prefer a looser fit, we recommend selecting one size larger than your usual preference.

Does the odor control wear off?

The odor control technology is embedded to remain effective for a significant number of wash cycles, though proper care will help maintain its performance longer.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels less stretchy after many washes

Check if you have been using fabric softener. Residue from softeners can inhibit the stretch and moisture-wicking functions of the material.

Visible lint or pilling on the garment

Wash the shirt inside out inside a mesh laundry bag to reduce friction against other clothing items in the machine.

Odor buildup after activity

Ensure you are using a sports-specific laundry detergent designed to remove oils and bacteria from synthetic fibers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally lightweight and breathable fabric
  • Environmentally conscious material construction via NEOLAST
  • Excellent moisture-wicking and quick-drying performance
  • Ergonomic seams prevent irritation during movement
  • Effective odor control for intense training

Cons

  • Fitted silhouette may feel too tight for some users
  • Limited to specific athletic use cases
  • Requires careful washing to maintain high-performance fibers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your garment, follow these care instructions:

  1. Machine Wash: Use cold water with like colors to prevent shrinkage and color bleeding.
  2. Detergents: Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and interfere with the sweat-wicking properties of the material.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or, preferably, hang dry to preserve the integrity of the NEOLAST fibers.
  4. Ironing: Do not iron, as high heat can damage the technical fabric blend.
