Under Armour Men's Team Tech 1/4 Zip Royal Blue - Lightweight Training

Our review of the Under Armour Men's UA Tech Team Quarter Zip finds it best suited for men who want a lightweight, comfortable training top with reliable moisture management. The single biggest reason to consider this quarter zip is the combination of the brand's quick-drying UA Tech fabric and an ultra-soft hand, which keeps sessions comfortable and reduces post-workout clamminess. The loose, fuller cut provides freedom of movement for lifting, running, or casual wear, while the 1/4 zip front lets you control ventilation and layer easily during changing conditions.

Key Features

• Quick-drying UA Tech Fabric: Dries fast to help you stay cool and focused through intense training or long practice sessions.
• Ultra-Soft Material: The fabric feels natural against the skin so the top is comfortable for extended wear and warmups.
• 1/4 Zip Front: The zip opening allows easy on-and-off, quick ventilation and simple layering with jackets or tees.
• Loose, Fuller Cut: Designed for unrestricted movement so you can lift, run, and stretch without the shirt pulling or binding.
• High Recycled Polyester Content: The main body fabric contains at least 90% recycled polyester, offering a more sustainable choice for environmentally minded buyers.

Who It's For

The top is ideal for men who train frequently and want a lightweight, breathable layer for warmups, running, or gym sessions; its relaxed fit also makes it a good option for casual wear or team warmups. If you prefer a snug, compression-like fit or thicker, insulating workout layers for cold-weather training, this loose, thin-feeling fabric may not meet that need.

It also works well for athletes and coaches who need easy layering and quick temperature control via the 1/4 zip, but shoppers seeking heavy-duty outerwear or substantial wind resistance should look elsewhere.

Pros & Cons

Pros
