The verdict

A fine low-cost buy if the oversized style and message suit the kid; it is a casual tee, judged as such.

Fit

Oversized is the intent, so it will run big and boxy; her usual size gives the designed look, size down for something closer to standard.

Quality

Expect basic youth sportstyle construction with an applied patch; adequate for daily wear, with the patch edges the likeliest first wear point.

Price check

Under $16 is budget pricing and reasonable for what this is.

Best for

A girl who likes the current oversized-tee look for school and casual wear.

Care

Wash cold inside out and skip the dryer to protect the patch adhesion.

True to size

Under 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 t-shirts

Under Armour's Tech t-shirt line uses lightweight 100% polyester with overlock-stitched seams. Reviewers who wash-and-wear test it report the fabric holds up well over repeated washes, staying breathable without losing shape. The recurring complaint isn't failure but comfort: the overlock seams can feel abrasive on high-mileage runs, and odor control is described as good but not excellent after multiple wears. Fit runs on the loose, relaxed side, boxy rather than tailored, enough that some owners size down from their usual size for a closer cut.

Strengths: Reviewers consistently note the fabric holds up wash after wash without breaking down, staying breathable and lightweight through repeated wear.
Watch out for: The recurring complaint is the overlock-stitched seams, which some runners find abrasive on longer, high-mileage outings, plus odor control that testers rate good but not excellent.
Sizing: The line runs loose and boxy rather than fitted; some owners size down from their usual size for a closer fit.
