About Under Armour

Compression gear is what put them on the map — that moisture-wicking base layer Kevin Plank started selling out of his grandmother's basement back in the '90s. These days Under Armour makes a full kit: running shoes, training tops, hoodies, and the HeatGear/ColdGear lines built around temperature. The brand leans athletic and performance-first, so it's a favorite with people who actually train, plus high schoolers and weekend lifters who want the look.

Online you'll find frequent sales and a solid Outlet section where last season's stuff gets marked down hard, which is honestly where the value lives. The 60-day return window is generous and easy to use. One thing to know: sizing runs slim per a lot of reviews, especially on the fitted tops, so if you're between sizes or want room, you'll probably want to size up.

What they sell

  • Compression and base layers — the HeatGear and ColdGear tops they're basically known for
  • Running and training shoes, including the HOVR and Flow lines with the connected-app tracking
  • Workout apparel — joggers, hoodies, shorts, and the Tech tees that show up in every gym
  • Team and youth gear, big with high school and college athletes
  • The Outlet section online, where last-season pieces get the steepest markdowns

How many days do you have to return something to Under Armour?

Under Armour gives you 60 days to return most items. The clock starts on your purchase date, and items need to have their original tags still attached. After 60 days, returns generally won't be accepted. One exception: UA HOVR shoes may qualify for an extended wear-test period, so if you bought a pair and they're not working out, it's worth checking that specific policy. Gift cards, final sale items, and customized gear are excluded from returns entirely regardless of timing. Keep your tags on and don't wait too long — 60 days goes faster than you think.

Can you return something to Under Armour without a receipt?

Under Armour's publicly published policy doesn't spell out a clear receipt-free return process. For online orders, your order confirmation email typically serves as proof of purchase, and returns are tracked through your account. For in-store purchases without a receipt, policies can vary by location, and the store may only offer an exchange or store credit rather than a refund. Your best move: check your email for an order confirmation or log into your Under Armour account to pull up your purchase history before heading to the store. That documentation will make the process significantly smoother.

Does Under Armour charge a restocking fee on returns?

No, Under Armour does not charge a restocking fee. You get the full amount back on eligible returns with no deductions for processing or handling. Return shipping is also free, so you're not losing money just to send something back. The main things that can affect your refund are condition — items should have tags attached — and whether the item falls into a non-returnable category like gift cards, final sale items, or customized gear. Outside of those exclusions, you should get your money back in full without any surprise fees taken out.

Can you return worn or opened Under Armour items?

This one is a bit nuanced. Under Armour's standard policy requires items to have original tags attached for a return, which generally means unworn and in original condition. However, UA HOVR shoes specifically appear to have an extended wear-test period, suggesting some leniency for testing performance footwear. For everything else — apparel, gear, accessories — assume you need to keep tags on and avoid wearing items if you think you might return them. Defective or damaged items are a different story and may be covered under the limited warranty even if worn. See the defective items question below for that scenario.

Does Under Armour extend return deadlines for holiday purchases?

Under Armour does not have a specifically published holiday return extension. The standard 60-day return window applies year-round, including purchases made during the holiday shopping season. This means if you buy a gift in late November or early December, the recipient could be cutting it close by the time they open it and decide whether to return it. If you're buying gifts, factor in the 60-day window from your purchase date — not from when the gift is opened. For the most current policy, check Under Armour's website directly, as holiday policies can occasionally change season to season.

Can you return an Under Armour online order to a physical store?

Under Armour's policy has an important distinction here: outlet store purchases must be returned to an outlet store specifically — they cannot be returned to a regular retail location. For standard online purchases, the typical process is a mail-in return using the free return shipping label. Whether you can walk an online order into a regular Under Armour retail store for a return is not explicitly detailed in the published policy. To avoid a wasted trip, contact Under Armour customer service or your nearest store before showing up with an online order. Bringing your order confirmation will help regardless of the channel.

Does Under Armour have a military discount?

Under Armour's military discount details are not included in the policy data available here. Historically, Under Armour has had strong ties to the military community and has offered discounts through verification platforms like ID.me. However, specific discount percentages, eligibility requirements, and whether the program is currently active are not something we can confirm from the available data. Check Under Armour's website directly or visit a store and ask — if a discount exists, it will typically require verification of military status through a third-party service. Don't assume it applies automatically at checkout.

Does Under Armour price match if something goes on sale?

Under Armour's price match policy is not publicly published in the data available here. Many athletic brands do not offer formal price matching, particularly against third-party retailers. If you bought something directly from Under Armour and the price dropped shortly after, it may be worth contacting their customer service to ask about a price adjustment — some brands will honor this within a short window even without a formal policy. Your best option is to reach out directly to Under Armour's support team with your order details and ask. There's no guarantee, but it costs nothing to ask.

How do you return a gift from Under Armour without a gift receipt?

Returning a gift to Under Armour without a gift receipt can be tricky since the transaction is tied to the original buyer's account. If the gift giver can share the order number or confirmation email, that will help significantly. Without any proof of purchase, Under Armour's options for you — like store credit or exchange — depend on the individual store or customer service rep you're working with, and no specific gift-return-without-receipt process is publicly documented. Your best first step is contacting Under Armour customer service directly with whatever information you have about the purchase to see what options they can offer.

How do you return a defective or damaged Under Armour item?

Under Armour covers defective items through a limited warranty, which is separate from the standard 60-day return window. If your gear has a manufacturing defect — seams coming apart, a zipper failing, material breaking down abnormally — that's a warranty claim, not a standard return. This means you may have recourse even outside the 60-day window. To file a claim, contact Under Armour customer service with photos of the defect and your proof of purchase. The warranty covers manufacturing defects but not normal wear and tear or damage from misuse. Don't try to return defective items through the standard return process — go directly to warranty support for the best outcome.
