Does anybody wear UnderArmour when they go skiing? I heard it keeps you cool when you're hot and warm when you're cold. does it work? it seems too tight to wear for 10 hours of skiing.
 
i wear both tops and bottoms and its the only thing i have found that is better than patagonia capeline. i never notice the tightness, and it keeps me warm on the coldest days. try it
 
ya its good for when you get hot just because it doesnt get stick and gross like a t shirt
 
i wear an all-season under armour. it helps a lot, is comfortable as fuck, and chicks dig it when i wear just that in the lodge.
 
You guys buy the heat gear (keeps you cool when you're hot) or the cold gear (keeps you warm when its cold)?
 
i honestly have never even thought about wearing my underarmour before and i use it for damn near everything...i will just waer that, a t-shirt and my shell next season

THANKS!!!
 
if its freezing, i usually wear a long sleeve cold gear then a thermal over that and then my jacket and that keeps me warm all day.. but if its warmer i where a long sleeve underarmer with a t-shirt n im usually straight
 
i got all season and cold gear for baseball, so i use each accordingly. u really don't feel it on you after a while. the only thing is since in most or all cases, you will be wearing a jacket over it, it will not allow the transportation of sweat to the top layer as easily. it still works great, but u may feel slight buildup of sweat sometimes (maybe it's just me)
 
yea...all i use is my cold gear and a t-shirt..then my jackett....i also use hot chillis on bottom with boxers over them cuz my pants are like 3,000mm waterproof and i can sang and not look like a jew

no offense to jews
 
Everyone should get the cold gear for skiing, it is the only way to go. The only time i take it off is when I am hiking in the BC or if i am building BC booters. I love the stuff and wear it even in the summer when i am bagging peaks.
 
i like to wear mine when i ski too..esp. the bottoms cuz they give u a lil extra support when ur takin big hits and shit..the impact isnt too cool or forgiving on ur balls sometimes....anyway yea it keeps u super warm too on those cold days but can also keep u cool on the hot ones
 
helly hansen prowool or any of the lifa stuff is by far better than under armour. UA is so over hyped it is not even funny
 
it's designed to absorb your sweat, spread it among the outer surface of the material, causing it to easily evaporate. it keeps you pretty dry, and yeah i use it. really works good.
 
Yeah, we get free UnderArmor gear. It works really well. Really nice stuff...too bad those football commercials are gay as shit.

"We must protect this house!!!!" SO lame.
 
I usually always just wear a t-shirt and jacket when I'm skiing, if its really cold i wear one shirt, sweater, and jacket.
 
dang you guys wear a lot of clothes when you ski. i'm like ^that guy. i just rock a t shirt under my jacket, and just boxers under my pants. if it's cold maybe i'll wear two t shirts under my jacket.
 
holy shit this is the first thread I've seen about underarmour and it seems like everybody on NS except me uses it
 
argh it pisses me off to no end when i show up at my mtn on a weeknight and fuckin hi school ski clubs are there, and all this kids who suck at skiin are chillin in the lodge tryin to spit game in their full underarmour suit like they own the place.
 
no offence but ithink underarmour is straight up gay i hate that stuff. kids who wear it look like they have down syndrome or something
