Review on Under Armour Sleeve T Shirt Graphite by Andrew Jenkins

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Nice t-shirt but causes nipple chafing even on moderate runs

This was recommended on one of the online running blogs as a higher quality shirt that doesn't chafe. My usual comparison point for running tees: North Face's Better Than Naked line. I understand they cost a lot more, but I was hoping that at least Under Armor would be at least a little bit closer to TNF than something like the Target brand. Unfortunately, Under Armor is pretty good. almost as good as Target's $10 offerings. The material is light and absorbs moisture properly, but has a rather rough texture and clings very closely to the body. At the end of an average 6 mile run in this shirt, I started to experience some pretty significant chafing discomfort. So one of the main reasons I got this shirt wasn't working so I can't recommend it.

Pros
  • T-shirts
Cons
  • Big and chunky
