The verdict
Fit
Youth athletic cut, likely true to size; size up if buying ahead of a growth spurt.
Quality
Lighter training fleece that generally holds up to school and sport wear; not a heavyweight winter layer.
Is the price fair?
At about $31 this is budget-tier for branded kids' fleece and good value as-is.
Best for
A parent who needs a durable, washable everyday hoodie for an active girl.
Care
Machine wash cold with like colors and tumble dry low to limit pilling.
Fit check: Under Armour
True to sizeUnder Armour's everyday lines fit true to size with a deliberately roomy, athletic-loose cut rather than a tailored one.
Owner reviews of the core Rival Fleece hoodies and joggers repeatedly land on "true to size," with the cut described as loose and comfortable rather than baggy — several hoodie owners say to size down only if they want a trimmer fit. Sizing guides likewise report the brand fits true to your usual size once you pick the right cut, since Under Armour labels pieces by cut (loose vs. fitted vs. compression) and the fitted and compression styles are intentionally much snugger than the casual gear. Reviewers note the tees and tops run long and boxy rather than fitted, and a minority of jogger buyers found the slimmer athletic cuts snug enough to size up.
Sizing advice: Order your usual size in the casual fleece, tees, and joggers — size down only if you want a closer fit in the roomy cuts, and expect the fitted/compression-labeled styles to run much snugger by design.
