Armour Fleece® Men's Pants
The verdict
Fit
Straight-leg cut, typical of the brand's Armour Fleece line; expect a fitted-athletic leg, so size up for room.
Quality
Armour Fleece is the brand's performance mid tier with a smooth face and brushed interior; expect good stitching and warmth for the price.
Price check
At about $55 this is fair mid-tier pricing for a branded technical fleece pant.
Best for
Men training in cool weather or wanting a warmer, non-tapered athletic pant.
Care
Wash cold and tumble dry low; avoid fabric softener on performance fleece.

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.

What owners report about Under Armour sweatpants
Testers who've put Under Armour's fleece joggers through repeated wear describe a genuinely durable, thick fabric that holds up wash after wash with no shrinkage, though the slim-cut styles run notably snug through the thigh and calf. GearLab called the Rival Fleece jogger's fit 'aggressively tight — unless you size up' and noted it squeezes the calves, while Men's Fitness found the Meridian joggers 'snug in a comfortable, supportive way' thanks to four-way stretch fabric. The tradeoff for that close fit is reduced airflow: both reviewers flagged breathability as the weak point, and GearLab noted the fleece-lined Armor style collects lint with wear.
- Strengths
- Reviewers consistently praise the durable, wash-resistant fleece fabric, which testers found held its shape and color without shrinking.
- Watch out for
- The slim/tapered cuts run tight through the thighs and calves, and breathability suffers as a tradeoff for that close fit.
- Sizing
- Testers recommend sizing up in the slimmer-cut joggers like the Rival Fleece, which run noticeably snug through the leg.
