Seller-declared grades, sterling with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026). What each grade means.
What holds its value across Under Armour
- HeatGear and ColdGear pieces with the stretch intact, which is the technology people are actually buying
- Team and licensed kit, which has a following beyond ordinary sportswear
- Larger sizes, which are consistently harder to find second hand than small ones
- Outerwear and gilets, which cost more new and hold value better than base layers
What pulls Under Armour resale value down
- Stretched-out compression garments, where the elastane has given and the fit has gone — which is the whole point of the product
- Pilling on the smooth technical fabrics, which shows badly and cannot be removed without damaging the surface
- Persistent odour in synthetic base layers, which holds in the fibres and is difficult to wash out completely
- Cracked printed logos, which is how the graphics on technical fabric eventually fail
Identifying and dating yours
- The interior label names the fabric technology, which is what buyers search for rather than the garment type
- Stretch the garment and let it go on camera if you can, since recovery is the honest measure of whether it still works
- Photograph the underarm and inner thigh areas, which are where pilling and thinning show first
What lifts any graphic tee, whatever the label
The graphic is the product here, so print condition and whether the shirt is genuinely old decide the price.
- Sought-after graphics with a following
- Single-stitch construction indicating real age
- Prints with no cracking on modern shirts
- Soft, evenly faded cotton on vintage pieces
And what pulls one down
- Modern shirts distressed to look vintage
- Cracked and flaking prints
- Underarm yellowing
- Plain or promotional tees
Working out what yours is worth
- Turn the sleeve hem out and check the stitch count
- Photograph the graphic straight on in daylight
- Check the neck tag for era markers
What to state in the listing
- Print subject, and any copyright year on the graphic
- Tag brand and whether the hems are single or double stitched
- Pit-to-pit and length laid flat
- Print condition and every hole or mark
Subject, era and size: “90s Cartoon Graphic Tee, Single Stitch, Size L”. Name what the graphic actually depicts, because that is the search. Never claim vintage without photographing the tag to support it.
Preparing and photographing it
- Photograph the neck tag, which is how buyers date and value the shirt.
- Check the print for cracking and the shirt for holes, especially at the collar and underarms.
- Measure it flat rather than trusting the printed size.
- The front print, flat, filling the frame
- The neck tag, legible
- The print surface close up, showing any cracking
- Any hole, stain or thin patch
When it sells best, and handing it over
Steady all year. Desirable graphics sell within days; generic prints sit and are better bundled.
The cheapest garment there is to post, so international buyers are viable and common for collectable prints.
What buyers ask
How do I know if compression kit is worn out?
Stretch it and see whether it snaps back. If it stays loose the elastane has gone, and the garment no longer does what it was bought for.
Can odour be washed out of synthetic sportswear?
Sometimes, with a proper technical wash and no fabric softener. If it persists after that, say so — buyers would much rather know in advance.
How much is an Under Armour graphic tee worth?
Roughly £6 to £32 depending on condition, against £6 to £30 for graphic tees generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.
