Great

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 February 2018

As an overweight guy I bought these to go under my tracksuit bottoms to keep me comfortable when I’m going for a run or anything where my legs will be moving quickly and might rub against each other. I am normally an XXL and after using the size chart I went for the 3XL which fit great. The shorts are light and fit fine without being taught or restricting and the thick elastic waist band sits comfortably on the waist without shifting. I’m 5’9 with quite big thighs and short legs so the shorts sit above my knee by a few inches, these may be a bit shorter on someone taller or if you have long legs. They do look like boxers though so definitely put them under something like your shorts or joggers - you would be a brave person to wear them as they are! I would recommend these to anyone, whether you are in shape and want something comfy and close to the skin or for people such as myself who want to take up more exercise without any chafing.

Not great compression

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 September 2020

These are comfortable to wear - and offer a nice 'base layer' is that's what you are looking for. I bought them using the provided size guide - good fit - no major issues there. The only thing I'd say is that UA must be using a short model as they do not go too far down my thigh (circa 6'). Granted - inner length is given.

However, I spent some time reading reviews of various products (here and elsewhere) as I needed shorts with good compression to help recover from injury. Bought these based on the reviews and the high elastane content. I found they provide little more compression than a pair of boxer shorts. Far less than I was expecting and really disappointed with the Under Armor hype. I have cheaper compression shorts with much better compression.

So in terms of a £20 pair of boxers they're great - expensive - but great. In terms of a pair of compression shorts as advertised - they are not great at all.

Like sandpaper in yer undies!!!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 June 2019

Size: XLColour: Black (001)Verified Purchase

I cannot believe just how awful these things are!! The seams on the inside are like a zip rubbing against my ass cheeks!! I bought them hoping to wear on a 27 mile charity hike but I doubt I'd get a mile before the chaffing from the seams drew blood!!! I'm hoping I'll get away with using them for the gym, otherwise it's a total waste of money!! My advice: buy a different product! I've a couple other UA garments and they're great, but these things are just awful!!

Compression??... Where!!??

I buy a medium on every clothing size. I've bought these in a medium also. Material nice. Very comfortable, sits just above my knee in length......

Now I do lots off bike riding and sprints. The tops of my legs are fairly large. I feel no compression whatsoever wearing these. Or confidence that they are actually supporting my quads or hamstrings. Proper disappointed actually with this purchase. They look the part but then again so do Sondico shorts in any Sports Direct. 👎

Almost flat in the Crotch

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 November 2020

Size: LColour: Carbon Heather/Black (090)Verified Purchase

Nice boxers for workout, well made. The material is sweat-free. The length is also good.

I've worn different brand boxers but it has one major flaw in my personal experience. It is almost flat in the crotch, which makes it uncomfortable to wear.

There's not enough space down there, you cannot stop positioning to adjust. I am kind of used to it now. Apart from that these are nice boxers.

Comfortable for the most part

Comfortable for the most part, but mesh rubs your spuds a bit. They looked like red new potatoes by the end of the day... So not perfect!

As underwear fine but no compression

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 August 2021

Size: LColour: Black (001)Verified Purchase

Bought these for working pit as I like compression shorts. Arrived fine and a known brand.

They fit great but are just close fitting, wicking shorts, no support factor whatsoever and with them being so thin I doubt the material is substantial enough to give support, would probably just split

Inferior to previous versions

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 May 2019

Size: XXLColour: Black (001)Verified Purchase

Had a pair of these for almost two years that were super comfortable and incredibly hard wearing. Since 2018 many UA products seem now to be inferior. Despite being the exact same product name these under shorts are itchy and provide little relief from chaffing. The materials are said to be the same do not must be the manufacturing process that has made these much inferior than earlier versions. I'm OK with them as got for under £10 but if I had paid full price would be very disappointed.

Not a durable product

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 May 2020

Size: LColour: Black (001)Verified Purchase

I bought these for running in December and by May they had worn through in some areas causing me to chafe. I had probably put in roughly 300 miles in that time so expected more from this product. They are comfy and material is nice and slippy but really expected them to perform better and be more long lasting.

Stops the old chub rub!

Bought these for running and to stop my legs rubbing together when doing long runs. It has definitely stopped! It fits nicely and stops any soreness or itchiness when running. It is tight but I prefer it that way

Don't compress

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 October 2019

Size: LColour: Black (001)Verified Purchase

I'm not a one-star reviewer, but these earn it. I bought a size smaller than someone with a waist 2" larger than mine. I have ordinary underwear that compresses better than these. Comfortable, yes - compression, no. My physio did warn me that these were... well, pants.
