Under Armour Drive Shorts for Men - Stretch Golf Performance

In this review of the Under Armour Drive Shorts for men, the bottom line is simple: these are performance-focused golf shorts built for motion and comfort. Designed for golfers and active men who value lightweight feel and unrestricted movement, the Drive Shorts stand out because of their combination of 4-way stretch, a stretch-engineered waistband, and UA Storm water-repellent finish that does not sacrifice breathability. The reviewer found them easy to wear for a full round and practical enough for casual wear off the course.

Key Features

• UA Storm technology: Repels light moisture to keep fabric dry while maintaining airflow so you stay comfortable in damp conditions.
• Stretch-woven twill fabric: Lightweight yet durable construction provides a soft hand feel without looking or feeling cheap.
• 4-way stretch construction: Moves with your body in every direction to support a full golf swing and active movement.
• Stretch-engineered waistband: Sits comfortably on the hips and allows mobility without pinching or binding during bending and rotation.
• Flat-front, 4-pocket design: Offers a clean golf-ready silhouette with practical storage for tees, glove or phone.
• 10 in inseam: A straight leg fall that balances coverage and freedom of motion for most players.

Who It's For

The Drive Shorts are best for men who play golf regularly or those who want a polished but athletic short for warm-weather activity. Players who appreciate technical fabrics will like the blend of polyester and elastane that delivers both structure and stretch.

Those who prefer a traditional cotton short with no water resistance or a much longer or shorter inseam should look elsewhere; the Drive Shorts aim for a modern athletic fit with a 10 in inseam and a straight leg rather than a classic relaxed cut.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Comfortable, lightweight fabric that customers report feels good against skin and does not irritate.
• Excellent mobility thanks to the 4-way stretch and a waistband designed for movement.
• Water-repellent UA Storm finish provides practical protection without making the fabric clammy.
• Clean flat-front styling suitable for golf and casual wear.

Cons

• Not a heavy-duty waterproof short; the UA Storm finish repels light moisture but will not perform in extended heavy rain.
• Designed with a specific straight-leg 10 in inseam that may not suit those wanting shorter or baggier silhouettes.
