UA Unstoppable Hybrid Shorts R1199
Have you tried Padel yet? Do yourself a favour and get involved with this incredibly fast-growing sport, and when you do, grab a pair of Unstoppable Hybrid shorts. To pack one piece of gear in your bag that acts as underwear as well as performance shorts makes a lot of sense, and when it performs so well, our testers felt like this is their go-to pair of shorts for summer exercise and activities. Lightweight, comfortable and lined with soft polyester on the inside give you all the comfort you need. The specifically contoured lines are designed to make moving across 360º of motion smooth and unhindered, which is a huge benefit when throwing yourself into a fully committed activity that requires the stretch and supports these shorts provide.
UA Iso-Chill Compression Long Shorts R999
Making the right gear choices can be the difference between a successful run or workout, and the one that leaves you feeling flat. Getting the most out of technical innovation is a great way to put you on the front foot. For summer, it’s great to have creative gear, like the Under Armour Iso-Chill fabric, which helps disperse body heat, making it feel cool to the touch. Under Armour flattened out the fibres of these compression shorts and added some science to create a fabric that quickly pulls heat away from the skin- keeping you calm, cool, and crushing at max capacity on your summer runs and workouts.

Testers slid into these compression shorts wondering whether something so close to the skin would be the right choice for hot summer activities and were immediately surprised with how good the fit and feel was. Testing over a variety of sports never resulted in heat issues and even after heavy exertion the compression shorts stayed in place feeling cool and unobtrusive to any movement requirements.
Our testers are committed to living a life packed with activities and often need to stay in touch with the world while working out. That’s why another detail we appreciated is the large pocket on the side of the thigh to accommodate the smartphone. This way you can measure the metrics of your workout, be in touch with your messages, listen to music or share your experience with a pic or two by having your smartphone close by.

The last useful detail from our testers that stands out from the Summerized collection is how quickly the garment dries, and how fresh it can feel even after a hard workout. A versatile way to wear your gear all day and get the most out of summer.
The new SUMMERIZED collection will be available from January 2023 at Under Armour Brand House stores nationwide as well as online: www.underarmour.co.za
