tewlman Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 It looks as though USPSA should contact Under Armour and inquire about being a Nationals sponsor. Almost everyone, self included, could be seen running around PASA park this week sporting the wears of Under Armour. However this does raise the question of inapproriate use of Under Armour. Now, i can tell you that i am not the best built guy in the world. I do workout and run at least 3 days a week, but i KNOW that i can't wear the tight Under Armour shirts as outer wear, and have the common decency to cover the tight fitting shirt with a looser fitting over shirt. There are others on the range that seem to think its cool and good looking but i for one can tell you its not. Even if your BMI is in the single digits, the Under Armour tight gear still should not be worn as outer wear ( as seem at the nats ). Common guys, either buy the loose gear or wear two shirts.....

zhunter Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 I think this should be required clothing, i.e. one pice outter garment only, for our lady shooters. Well on second thought, maybe not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Heiter Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 What? You mean those shirts don't come with a fake "six pack" of abs molded into the front like a batman suit? Surely they don't expect people to supply their own. Crap, time to cancel my order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricW Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Glad I'm not the only one that thinks spandex for the average American male in this millenium is as wrong as spandex for the average American female in the *last* millenium.

JakeMartens Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 I am so out of shape I went looking for an alternative to the Under Armour because I know that I would be embarassed to even were it under a shirt. I found the loose Adisas shirts at Dick's on the clearance rack for $15 and bought some, an extra size larger just not to disgust anyone especially myself!!!

MikeFoley Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 That @#$% list is long and distinguished Airedale, and yes, the real players will be at Steel Challenge, and Tewlman has been invited too. On Under Armour, I wear it as an UNDERSHIRT, or the loose gear in an appropriate size. I was with Tewlman when he came up with the inspiration for this thread, and let me tell you, it wasn't pretty. Maybe a dress code for USPSA like PGA, I never thought it would have come to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
