Another UnderArmour Thread

Last track day I wore a short sleeve Head brand UnderArmour type shirt that I got for dirt cheap. Worked out great, but my forearms were sweaty and I had a hard time pulling off my leathers. So now I'm looking to go full Under Armour (long sleeve turf shirt and heat gear leggings) for my next track day. The problem is that the stuff is so freaking expensive ($35 for the shirt and $40 for the leggings). Does anybody know of a store/website that sells this Under Armour stuff a little cheaper?

TIA!

I've looked at Ebay already. Unfortuantely, it looks like that after shipping the costs is pretty much the same as buying from a store. Thanks for looking though!

Any Nike outlets around you? You can get their ACG line and it works very well too.

I think the manufacturer prohibits it from going on "sale", therefore I don't think the price varies much. Your only bet is to get it from a distributor that w/ buy it for you at cost.

Bought my long sleeve Under Armor shirt for full retail price and it's worth every penny.

My brother bought me a pair of the UA pants. Sweet. Look for Capilene from EMS or any other outdoor eqipment company for a close equivalent.

I bought a cheap alternative from wally world(yes I'm cheap) that looks and feels just like the UA stuff for $12. It works very well for me.

Re: Another UnderArmour Thread

Well listened to the advice about going to buy the shirt @ Wal-Mart. It's incredible that both brands AthleticWorks (Wal-Mart) and Under Armour are made of the same material and the Under Armour cost just about 3x at much. Was so giddiy about the Wal-Mart deal, I bought 2 long sleeve! As indicated in this thread, Wal-Mart doesn't sell the pants/leggings. I tried searching around the web and couldn't find anything (Googled variations of "Athletic Works"). Anybody know of a website/store that sells the "Athletic Works" brand pants/leggings?
