Under Armor to keep warm
« on: October 18, 2006, 04:42:23 AM »
 [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]  Well folks, I gotta pass on this tip.  My husband and I packed tops and bottoms of Under Armer to go to MV with last week and we both wanted to pass on a great big Thumbs Up  [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] on this product.  Cut the wind, very compact for packing, kept us toasty warm - but not overheated when stopped for lunch etc., very thin so easy to wear under regular jeans and t-shirts.  We really enjoyed the comfort of them.  Saw many others wearing them while we were there so we know we are not the first to discover them, but it was the first time we have tried this product.  A definate - Job Well Done! for this company.   [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

I've been wearing them for a couple years now. They make a loose fit that is great in the summer also. DelNel [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

I have been checking them out and wasnt sure about the tight fit. They are expensive too. With your recommendation I will pick up a pair and check them out, thanks.

I got a set of the heat gear and the cold gear issued to me by the Army, they work great. One thing I really like about it also is if you get wet it dries a lot quicker than a regular shirt would. The tight fit isn't really an issue, it streatches a lot and it's pretty comfortabull

IMHO, this is among the best products out there....  I would order loose gear where i could...  and for the Cold gear stuff, order it a little bigger thatn you normally would...

the army also issues something called "silky drawers" ( polartec branded) that is lightweight and warm and somewhat moisture wicking...  if you happen to be near to and have access to an Envisions store on post base or camp it is quite reasonably priced and a possible substitute at a lower price.....the manufacturer is Peckham industries...  not sure who they retail through
I am a BIG UnderArmour fan ( wearing it now) ... but these are a nice alternative

I'll vouch for the UA as well.  Got the cold gear top, leggings, socks and headgear.  Snug as a bug in a rug!

The under-armour socks are great. theres a ski version of it also.  i found them at "Dicks" sporting goods.
tested them riding < 20 degrees last week and they were warm.

 ;D  ;D   ;D   ;D  Not on me either, but then, few things look like the commercials on me.   ;D  ;D   ;D   ;D  

But now you gotta give your ride reports on the products.  I love both the pants and the tops.  [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

Santa Terry gave me a pair of Under Armer pants for Christmas.   [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]  They're very comfortable and warm.   :)

Thanks Santa.  :-*   There'll be more beer and chocolate chip cookies under the tree next year.   ;)
