Under Armour Men's Sportstyle Encased Elastic Waist Tricot Loose Jogger (Charcoal Heather/Black, XL)

Short, Sweet and To The Point Story: These blew my expectations away. Fit is awesome. Quality is awesome. Price is alright. Performance is elite. Zippers on sweats? Surprising my favorite thing now! If you're reading reviews because you're still on the fence, BUY these! NOW!! Trust yourself. Yes you do need these and no your old sweats aren't just fine. I bought 3 more pair 6 months after my first. Changed my life.. haha :P Seriously though... BUY them. The Long Epic Review Story They Deserve!: These where my first pair of untraditional sweats. My friend has been clowning me for wearing my faithful sweats I've had all my adult life. Telling me I look like a grandpa or a bum. When it was finally time to get a new pair of sweats [old ones leg got torn hiking :(] I decided to see what UA was talking about. Been recently getting UA stuff because my go to athletic brands are charging high end New York fashion week prices. You can keep that! Style: A+ Price: B+ First and foremost UA quality and style is on par with the "giant" at a more affordable price and that's huge for a working man who likes to play but really can't afford to with this recent explosion of athleisure fashion. Delivery: A+ So, I was a little weary about going all out and getting the tapered legs with the funky print and the elastic at the ankles and pockets with zippers. They sat in my cart for a good 3 months but then I got invited to a really nice hiking trip and it was gonna be COLD! I needed something pronto! I finally hit purchase and UA got them to me STAT in only 2 days! UA big ups LOVE the shoprunner 2 day! Performance: A+ Zippppppppers!! I will never buy another pair of athletic pants or sweats without zippers. I literally slapped myself for not getting on this sooner. I ran up and down that mountain. Climbed some rocks, fell a couple time, and forgot my phone was even in my pocket! I have a goofy runners fanny pack to hold my phone while I run and do athletic stuff because my stuff is always popping out of my pockets and bouncing around. That really messed with my performance in all my sports. With these and the zipper pocket, fanny pack is chilling in my closet and ALL my stuff is In my pocket. Only anxiety I get now is, thinking I left my stuff in the car because I forget its in my pocket. I even ran a 10k with these bad boys with my phone chilling on my side dry, safe, and cool in the mess pocket. Tapered leg with ankle elastic genius. Not only does it keep the legs from creeping, it seals in that warmth when its cold. Added bonus, when it's a really cold day, I put these on and throw my work jeans, scrubs, or pants on and they keep me the perfect temp! ANNDD I don't have to wrestle with them and fish up pant leg to find my sweat so I can pull them down where they're supposed to be. These lock onto my ankles perfectly and don't let my pants push them up. Extra added bonus: When I'm in my scrubs running around the hospital and constantly up and down my phone tends to pop out of my scrub pockets EVERYWHERE! Not anymore. With these under my scrubs, I have my phone zipped up safe and secure. Life changing: Guaranteed* I thought I was getting just a pair of sweats to wear when I'm hiking and it's cold outside but I got sooooo much more. I wear a pair just about EVERY day for work, school, chill, and play. Alone or as a base layer. Totally exceeded my expectation! and literally changed my life. *this is not an actual guarantee, UA not responsible for changing your life ;)
