FAQs
What type of activity is this top best suited for?
This top is ideal for running, training, and other moderate to high-intensity aerobic activities where staying dry and comfortable is important.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the Nike sizing chart for women's tops. Measure your chest, waist, and hips and compare to the provided measurements. The tapered waist should fit snugly but comfortably.
Can I wear this in cold weather?
Yes, the long sleeves and option for thumbhole coverage make it suitable for cooler weather. For very cold conditions, it is best worn as a base or mid-layer.
Are the reflective elements durable?
The reflective elements are designed for durability under normal athletic use and proper care. Avoid high heat and abrasive washing to maintain their integrity.
Is this top waterproof?
No, this top is designed for moisture-wicking and breathability, not for waterproofing. It is intended to manage sweat during exercise.
What does Dri-FIT technology do?
Dri-FIT is Nike's performance fabric technology designed to help you stay dry, comfortable, and focused by wicking sweat from your body to the fabric's surface, where it can evaporate.
Can the half-zip be fully opened?
No, this is a half-zip design, meaning it opens approximately halfway up the chest for ventilation, not fully.
Troubleshooting
Dri-FIT technology seems less effective
Ensure you are not using fabric softeners during washing. Residual buildup can impair moisture-wicking. Wash on a warm cycle with a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly.
Thumbholes feel too tight or uncomfortable
The thumbholes are designed for a snug fit. Try stretching them gently after washing. If discomfort persists, they can be worn without using the thumbhole feature.
Reflective elements are peeling
Avoid high heat in the dryer and direct ironing on the graphics. If peeling has started, cease high-heat drying immediately. Minor peeling may not significantly impact functionality.
Garment feels tight in specific areas
Check the sizing guide for accurate measurements. The tapered waist is a design feature; if it feels too restrictive, consider if this particular fit is ideal for your needs or if a different Nike style might be a better option.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

- Use Mild Detergent: Avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the fabric's pores and reduce its effectiveness.
- Do Not Bleach: Bleaching agents can damage the fabric and reflective elements.
