I guess I'm the only guy in the world that hasn't kept up with the Under Armor brand. What about their line of outdoor wear? What's the interest in it? Is it lighter but warmer? Better for insulation?

Don't feel like the lone ranger, I've heard of it, but I don't have any of it.
A friend of mines son was sitting next to a bonfire when an ember floated up in the air and drifted onto the back of his UA shirt. At first he thought it was a bee sting, then the flame spread. He dropped and rolled and the fire continued.
He was medivaced to the hospital where he spent three months.
3rd degree burns from shoulder to shoulder down to his lower waist. Hideously disfigured.
I like the look, I like the brand and I like the story of how the business started. I don't like the lack of flammability warnings.
They are a local Balmer company so they naturally get a lot of play around here. I don't have any of their stuff but it frankly looks better on really fit, muscular dudes and it wasn't on my radar 15 years ago(when I could have actually worn it well.)
Crazy you say that. A friend of mines company was giving Under Armour to their workers overseas and she gave me some. There was a tag on the bottoms I got that says:
FIRE WARNING THIS GARMENT WILL MELT UNDER EXTREME HEAT
