Title: Underarmour
Post by: Howzat on October 23, 2010, 02:29:28 PM: Really confused, I have bought this baselayer:

Is this the decent one? As far as I can tell it keeps you warm and is also the tight one for compression?

Sizing is tricky, im 6ft but according to the underarmour size chart I'm a size small for chest but a size medium for waist. No idea what size to get. ???

Post by: Buzz on October 23, 2010, 05:16:27 PM: As you are tall I think it will fit you better, I am 6ft1 and am prett sure I have the large (but have a 38/40 inch chest) I think the small will be be too tight and not be comfortable.

Post by: Buzz on October 23, 2010, 05:54:40 PM: you will have to try one on, but small in my eyes is for people who are small... at 6ft you aren't small!!

Post by: Ayrtek Cricket on October 23, 2010, 06:49:09 PM: yeh no use in having them baggy as it wont trap on the heat etc then between the layer and your skin!
