An Under Armour men’s Sportstyle cap may seem like a simple purchase, but small differences in size, material and fit determine whether you wear it regularly or leave it in the cupboard after a few weeks. This is particularly true of a fitted model, as returning it can be a hassle if you have not measured your head correctly.
Keep an eye out for these common pitfalls:
Use a flexible tape measure to measure approximately 2.5 cm above your eyebrows and just above your ears. Keep the tape in contact with your head, but do not pull it tight. Note the circumference in centimetres and compare it with the size guide:
The size ranges overlap. If you are between two sizes, think about how you want the cap to feel. For a closer stretch fit, the smaller size is the obvious choice; if you prefer a little extra room during outdoor activities, consider the larger size. Always check the available size for each product, as not every colour variant is available in every size.
According to the product information, the Sportstyle models have a low-profile design with a structured front panel. This panel retains its shape and gives the cap the look of a classic men’s baseball cap. A pre-curved brim can be practical for everyday wear, walking or outdoor training.
The material is made from 100% polyester. The product description also mentions a breathable, textured knit fabric with stretch. Here, “breathable” means that the fabric is designed to offer a more airy feel; it is not a defined performance rating for ventilation. If you are looking for a cap for training, it is also worth considering the sweatband and how securely the cap sits on your head.
According to the supplied care information, you should hand-wash the cap in cold water or spot-clean it, depending on the variant. Do not use bleach, fabric softener or a tumble dryer. Allow the cap to air-dry naturally, away from direct heat, and do not iron it.
This care routine is important for maintaining the shape of the front panel and brim. A polyester men’s baseball cap is practical for regular use, but intensive machine washing can affect its fit and finish. The product description also mentions embroidered logos and odour-control technology on various variants. According to Under Armour’s own information, this technology is intended to help reduce unwanted odours; its effectiveness may vary depending on the conditions of use.
Why it suits this profile: The S/M size is suitable for head circumferences of 54.0 to 57.2 cm. The blue colour and embroidered logo work well for sporty everyday wear.
The size chart removes the need to guess based on a “standard size”. The structured front also means you are not choosing the cap solely because of its soft, unstructured appearance.

Why it suits this profile: This blue sports cap for men offers a size option for a head circumference of 59.7 to 63.5 cm. That makes it suitable for larger head sizes.

We have compiled a complete, up-to-date list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety regulations.
Measure your head circumference above your ears and compare it with the size guide for the model you have chosen. S/M generally covers 54.0 to 57.2 cm, M/L 55.9 to 59.1 cm, L/XL 57.8 to 61.0 cm and XL/XXL 59.7 to 63.5 cm. Where sizes overlap, your preference for a close or roomier fit will determine your choice.
The product description mentions a stretchy HeatGear sweatband designed to help move moisture away from the skin, as well as a textured knit fabric. According to Under Armour’s own product information, the cap is intended for everyday use, training and outdoor activities. How comfortable it feels also depends on the temperature, level of exertion, fit and personal preference.
Follow the care instructions for the variant you have chosen: hand-wash in cold water or spot-clean, do not bleach and do not tumble-dry. Allow the cap to air-dry naturally, away from direct heat. This helps reduce the risk of the brim and front panel losing their shape.
