Great features, odd fit

Originally posted on Under Armour

Might work for you, didn't work for me. The waist band is very tall and much tighter than other UA shorts. The Vanish Elite 6" short first me perfectly in large, but this short in a large was very tight.

Shorts run tighter than expected

Originally posted on Under Armour

No, I don't recommend this

The Under Armour Men's UA Launch Elite 7" Shorts are made of high quality, and the hidden pocket in the back for cellphones or keys would work. However, while I usually fit in XL these were much tighter than expected, and I was not able to keep them.

Speedpocket pretty faulty and things fall out easily. Lost wireless headphone case once and keys another time. So not very secure for running

Quality material that is also light in weight.

Originally posted on Under Armour

Yes, I recommend this

This short is made of light weight material with both quality and durability. They are not baggy nor tight and have a style and cut that is above other shorts. My onl knock is it fits a bit small in the waist band. The wide waste band helps to offset the fit.

Runs Small

Originally posted on Under Armour

Yes, I recommend this

Order 1-2 sizes up. These are nowhere close to the normal sizing convention that I have with other UA shorts. I understand they are "Fitted" but this is near compression and does not match the visual example where there is breathing room around the leg for dynamic movements. I only bought these because they were half off.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I ordered a pair of large shorts and medium shirt. Seems to be a bit small or down one size. These are my sizes in all other brands. Just did not feel like repacking and sending back. Lesson learned as this was my first order with UA

Short is just awesome. Hope you make it in a split or 5” version as well. Fabric is soft and details great.
