The verdict

A decent buy as a light training layer, but shoppers browsing button-ups should note this is a pullover workout hoodie.

Fit

Training tops in this line usually run true with a slightly athletic cut; normal size for most, up one if worn over other layers.

Quality

Expect a thin, sweat-wicking knit rather than fleece; construction should be fine for gym use, though light fabrics like this can show wear at cuffs over time.

Price check

Around $41 is budget-to-mid for a performance hoodie and reasonable for a running or gym layer.

Best for

Runners and gym-goers who want a light hooded layer for cool sessions.

Care

Machine wash cold and hang dry; avoid fabric softener, which hurts wicking.

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.
