Through the years, I have been approached by many companies to review their products. Normally, I graciously declined, but when Under Armour contacted me to team up with them, I happily agreed to work with the company, as I really like many of their products. Starting today, I will begin a new series on this blog called Reviews / Giveaways, where I will discuss various health products or foods.

Periodically, I will review some of Under Armour’s products on my site, then, have a free giveaway of the product I tested.

Today’s product is:

Item Desription

From snowboarders on the hill to players on the field, athletes love their hoodies. But old-school cotton sweatshirts soak up water like a sponge, weighing you down. Athletes demand more out of their gear. So UA did what we do better than anyone. We rebuilt the fabric to make it perform. We started with our game-changing Charged Cotton® which dries faster than regular cotton. Much faster. Then we added UA Storm technology to make water just bead up and roll off. It’s your favorite sweatshirt, rebuilt with the power to defy the elements.

My Review

First, I was completely impressed with the quality of this sweatshirt. It had substance to it, made of great material. I am based in New Jersey, where it is quite chilly this time of the year. I wore this sweatshirt for a jog today, and was completely warm – – and most importantly, did not feel restricted with movement. It also did NOT make me feel ‘weighed down’ during the run. Some sweatshirts hold in the sweat during the run, and I did not feel overly ‘moist’ wearing this product.

The sweatshirt is a good looking product, clean, very durable, and comfortable. It is offered in eight attractive colors, as well as available in many sizes ranging from small to XXL.

I have never been disappointed with an Under Armour product, and I would highly recommend this sweatshirt for a workout, or just to wear a nice looking sweatshirt.

I will be giving away this product in a giveaway, so keep posted for more information.

Final product review: – 5 out 5 stars.
