Product Information
Full details
The Nike DRI-FIT Long Sleeve Half Zip is designed for active girls who need a reliable, high-performance layer that manages moisture during movement. Featuring moisture-wicking technology and a sleek, slim-fit silhouette, it is perfect for sports, outdoor play, or layering under a jacket; however, users should note that the slim-fit design is tailored to be close to the body, which may feel restrictive if a looser fit is preferred.

FAQs
Is this top suitable for winter sports?
Yes, it works well as a base layer under a jacket to keep moisture away from the skin, though you may need additional layers for extreme cold.
How do I ensure the moisture-wicking feature continues to work?
Avoid using fabric softeners or dryer sheets, as they can clog the synthetic fibers that move sweat away from the body.
Does the half-zip design cause chafing?
The zipper is designed to lay flat, but ensure the pull tab is positioned correctly to avoid contact with the neck.
Can this be worn for casual daily use?
Absolutely, the athletic style works well for school or casual outings while providing the comfort of activewear.
What is the best way to dry the garment?
We recommend air-drying or using the lowest heat setting on your dryer to prevent material shrinkage.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels damp after heavy sweating
Check that the garment was not washed with fabric softener, which can block moisture-wicking pores.
Zipper feels stiff or hard to operate
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth and gently wipe the tracks with a clean, dry cloth.
Slim fit feels too constricting
The garment is designed for an athletic profile; consider sizing up if the current fit restricts arm movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a technical apparel piece, proper maintenance is essential to keep the moisture-wicking fibers functional. Always wash in cold water with similar colors and avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as these can coat the fibers and degrade the DRI-FIT performance. For the best longevity, tumble dry on a low setting or hang-dry to preserve the integrity of the slim-fit stretch. This garment pairs seamlessly with athletic leggings or track pants for a complete, functional kit.
