Never Again
will I purchase another product from UA. Bought 6 pairs of brand new shorts and finally opened up and ran em through the wash to wear them this past Memorial Day weekend. Friday wore the first pair and tied them to snug up the waist. Got home to take them off and the material used for the sting knotted SO tight I couldn’t untie them and had to eventually cut the string to loosen them before it cut into my waist anymore! Trying to remove them the string ran and tore the inside liner. Fast forward to Saturday I put on another pair and long story short the same thing happened. 3 out of 6 are now in the trash can with cut strings and tore liners or waists. Don’t even want to wear the last 3 pairs. I’ll find a homeless person who can fit them and give them away. Absolute TRASH! 0/5
