Scroll downt he page a bit, there's some UA Tech Tee's for $8.22+$5.50 for shipping = $14. If you pick up a couple and combine ship, I bet it could work out about $12 a tee.

While not practical for exercise, those are truly man materials!

Thank you. I'm gonna have to try a few on though first. Lost a fair amount of weight and don't know what size I am anymore.

Well the Vikings fought full head-on battles just covered in all three of the above mentioned materials. That's got to be some pretty good exercise, swinging a battle-ax absolutely swathed in chain mail and hair. Seriously, we're all pu$$ys.

Scottish men excercise in skirts.

Yeah, plaid skirts and they wore no underwear. Plaid and junk are definitely manly.

If you go to the Under Armour website, they have a pretty good measurement chart. Then all you need is a tape measure. I'm sure you could recruit some CPers to help.

If you decide for a compression shirt (they make great undershirts) I would suggest getting one size bigger. My XL Under Armour compression turtleneck fits a lot better than my L Under Armour compression t-shirt.

Exactly... kilts are far too big and manly to be considered femmy. Plus, they typically had some animal fur hanging off their shoulder. That's pretty manly too, if that fur is bear or wolverine, and you killed it yourself.

Girls don't wear undershirts when they work out... sheesh.

With a freaking claymore sword the size of your entire body. Better yet, you probably had the head of some English lord hanging from your belt the whole time. The Scottish are manly.

Nope. At least not I, anyways. I'd just wear it as a shirt. Get it in white, dump a water bottle on me... Kidding. But seriously, I've never understood the need for two shirts.

Yeah, our European ascendants really knew how to dress... there were the Scots with their kilts, furs and massive swords, to the Romans with their luxurious wovens blended with their molded steel body armour and loaded with knives.

In a skirt, commando for airation.

I think the Scottish were SO manly, only they could pull off the skirt thing.

Women don't sweat like guys do. In a good game of soccer, guys will easily sweat through both shirts. If that undershirt is something kick ass like UA or NikeFit, the material actually gets cold from that.

That's what I swim in

And I bought my first UA stuff a few years ago. Haven't had to replace it - I think I bought it before it become vastly popular because I didn't remember seeing it anywhere else. There was also no compression gear, no jackets, hoodies, pants, anything actually. Just those plain black, white, red, t-shirts. I still have them all. Anyway, the point was I thought it was dirt cheap?

I have a few reg. (as in not compression) sleveless shirts and then the standard shirts. They're what? $30.00, are airy, dry fast, comfortable, don't stain and don't seem to keep the smell. As for the compresssion stuff.. errr.. it's a little tight for me, the xxl wears like one of those skin tight surfing shirts. It's a little creepy to wear that in public, I don't understand the point..

I did splurge and buy (from my outdoor running clothes thread) an UA jacket (weird material), and an UA windbreaker that was pretty pricey. That said I've been outside running 9 times in the last 3 weeks and it's been great. For the bottoms I just went and bought some reg. jogging pants at Foot locker since all running pants are gay! Underneath I got some running room long underwear tops and bottoms.

Actually I think that cost me: $490 to run outside this winter hah.

Three different shops, a lot of trying stuff on, a decent price. All to not look like a ######!! Actually I think I look pretty cool

Actually, I heard they went commando so they could deficate right where they stand without soiling their garments.

That's why you're the chick magnet.

Careful. If it's runny it'll just get into your boots...

That actually makes a lot of practical sense, if true. Before trauma or the fight or flight mechanism kicks, the body makes you void your digestive tract to get rid of the extra weight. Since the Scots were always kicking so much petinsky they would have needed the least amount of clothe items that were in the way.

Pooping where you stand before chopping off someone's head. Another point for Scottish manliness.
