The verdict
Fit
The Motion line typically offers a relaxed, easy fit with some stretch; expect comfortable, forgiving sizing rather than a tight cut.
Quality
At this budget price expect a soft knit with basic but reliable seams suited to everyday casual use rather than heavy training.
Is the price fair?
At $45 this is priced right for a budget athletic full-zip and represents fair value within the tier.
Best for
A woman wanting an inexpensive, comfortable zip for errands, lounging, or light movement.
Care
Machine wash cold and tumble dry low to maintain the soft hand and stretch.
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.
