UA Compression Shorts

Originally posted on Under Armour

Yes, I recommend this

The compression shorts are nice. They fit well and are comfortable. However ,they offer only mild compression muscle support. I have a pair of the original compression shorts. They are the GOAT! They have firm compression muscle support. They have the same high waist and they are longer. They are robust! I like them better than 2XU and DFND. Please bring back the original UA compression shorts!

Hi, Jim! So glad you love the fit and comfort level our shorts bring, but we're bummed the compression level isn't what you were looking for. We want our gear to elevate your game and it sounds like that's not what happened, and we appreciate you for letting us know. We'd love another chance at getting you into gear that makes you look and feel your personal best. Please look for an email from me so we can discuss!

Without sharing too much information, and stepping over the imaginary TMI threashold... This is fantastic. I'm 5'8" and got a Medium and this is long enough where I feel that my quads are supported, and it is tight enough in the front where I am supported there as well. This is my second pair of UA compression underwear and I will get them again. I plan to wear this for my Marathon. My favorite part is the spacious pocket that will hold my phone and/or key fob to my car!

These shorts are a must on leg training days. Expect when your over shirts slide all the way down during leg presses. Plus add extra support as well.

These are great. I use them for working softball games (under my gear). Wear them to the gym. Wear them around the house when cleaning. Comfortable and wicking is effective. They run a bit small, but not much.

Love the color of these tights!

Originally posted on Under Armour

Yes, I recommend this

These Under Armour tights fit as expected, snug and true to size. But the real win comes from the color of these beauties because it truly POPS! Bright, vibrant orange color that looks great under any darker colored shorts: especially pairing it with a black, a navy, a dark grey, a darker forest green. The options are endless with these Under Armour tights.

Bring back the original Compression Shorts

Originally posted on Under Armour

No, I don't recommend this

I’ve been wearing Under Armour compression shorts for well over a decade, and the older models were absolutely perfect — snug, durable, and genuinely compressive. They fit like a second skin, kept their shape, and never rode up. Unfortunately, the current version feels like a completely different product. The fabric is thinner and stretchier, the waistband isn’t as firm, and they’ve lost the supportive compression that made the originals great. Instead of feeling locked in and athletic, they feel loose and cheap. It’s frustrating because UA used to set the standard for compression gear, and now the design change has taken away everything that made them worth buying. I hope Under Armour listens to longtime customers and brings back the original construction and fabric quality — there’s clearly still demand for the classic design.

Hey, Douglas! Thank you for your feedback. We're so sorry the HeatGear Pocket Shorts didn't feel the same this time, but we appreciate you being a loyal brand fan all of these years. We'll reach out via email to help you find the type of gear you're looking for.

Good fit & excellent for gym work, wide waist band holds well (standard performance tech under wear waist band is too skinny & rolls when put to hard use)

Perfect Fit and Smart Design

Originally posted on Under Armour

The UA HeatGear Pocket Men’s 9” Shorts are outstanding! They fit tight—exactly how compression shorts should—offering great support without being uncomfortable. The fabric feels cool, flexible, and stays in place even during intense workouts. The side phone pocket is a game changer: it keeps my phone snug against my leg and completely out of the way, yet still easy to grab when I need it. These have quickly become my go-to training shorts. Perfect fit, great functionality, and awesome comfort all in one!
