ASForum Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Body Fit Sweat Wicking / Removing T Shirts?http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 8628wt_940Are these any good? Fabric / fit wise are these kinda T shirts any sense? Do they really wick / remove moisture / sweat better as compared to Cotton? How do they feel on the skin? I usually do not like non-cotton / artificial fabric on skin but ive seen some new age artificial fabric exceptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Duelley Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 I have several Under Armour compression shirts and shorts. I ALWAYS wear the compression shorts but I dont really use the shirts all the often bec I usually train with no shirt at all 8) The shorts are great and I love to wear the shirts when I go backpacking, or I wear them under a cotton T-shirt if its really hot at the range. I have to experience with the particular brand you posted but do love my Under Armour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairbob Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 I dig the underamour like shirts if I have to go to a gym, however most of the time I just work out in a pair of shorts as well. It significantly helps me cool off even I were to only wear a tank top. The problem with cotton is it just gets wet. It'll dry off eventually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Boakye Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 S'cuse the reviving of the thread, but thought it's not worth making a new thread.A quick search on "compression shorts" brought up this thread so I thought I'd ask, are compression shorts really much use? Been browsing the net trying to see if they're much use for gymnastics, and there's not much I can find.Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASForum Posted February 5, 2011 Author Share Posted February 5, 2011 Any other brands like Under Armor that work well but are less expensive $$$? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicholas Herreros Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 I use the starter brand shirts, from walmart. They are much cheaper than the Under Armor. They work very well for me. It helps keep me from chafing under my arms when doing ring strength training. I also wear the underwear of the same material, which i originally bought for groin protection while playing softball, as it has a built in pocket for a cup. I find it also helps prevent chafing whenever i do any running of any kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Libke Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 I found that a lot of my moisture wick shirts end retaining odor. Yes, this means I am stinky. But I don't have the same problem with cotton, and cotton is cooler and more comfortable. If a shirt must be worn, I sometimes switch between the two, but if I am doing just strength training, and not conditioning, I opt for cotton in the heat. I'll use the moisture wick in cold temps, like when I am running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
