Under Armor

[dyeager535]

Don't post here much at all, but I feel it important to get the word out, knowing Under Armor is very popular.

Basically, they caved to anti-hunters: http://www.marketwatch.com/story/hu...r-kills-sponsorship-internet-rages-2016-08-23

The petition to get UA to reverse their decision already has more signatories than the one to get them to remove sponsorship: https://www.change.org/p/under-armo...under-armour-to-quit-cowering-to-anti-hunters

I'd urge everyone that hunts, and/or stands with all hunters and I'd argue all outdoorsmen and women, regardless of the method, to contact major retailers that sell Under Armor, and ask them to pressure UA to reverse this decision, or stop selling their products.

they haven't been doing so well as a company in general.

I've found UA to be highly overrated, and similarly priced. After a couple seasons of disappointing performance from their baselayers and other gear, I'm almost entirely converted to merino wool products; primarily from First Lite.

Better odor control, more comfortable, and far better construction.

Merino wool for the win!

I'll have to check out First Lite. I've been using Smartwool's Merino wool for a base layer for the past couple years.

I really like Smartwool - US made and high quality. First Lite's just has the colors/patterns I use when hunting.
