Full details
This Nike Swim T-Shirt Hydrogu, in blue and size XL, is designed for men engaging in water sports and outdoor activities.

FAQs
Is this shirt suitable for competitive swimming?
While the Hydrogu offers moisture-wicking and UV protection, it is designed more for general water activities and comfort rather than the tight, streamlined fit typically preferred for competitive racing.
Can I wear this t-shirt as a rash guard?
Yes, the Nike Swim T-Shirt Hydrogu provides UPF 40+ sun protection and features flat seams to reduce chafing, making it an effective and comfortable rash guard for water sports.
How do I know if the size is right?
This t-shirt features a 'Regular fit.' We recommend referring to standard sizing charts for Nike apparel and considering your preferred fit for water activities. It should feel comfortable without being overly tight or loose.
What is UPF 40+?
UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. A UPF 40+ rating means the fabric allows only 1/40th (or less) of the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays to pass through it, offering excellent protection.
What is Dri-FIT technology?
Dri-FIT is Nike's performance fabric technology designed to help you stay dry, comfortable, and focused by wicking sweat away from your body to the fabric's surface, where it evaporates.
Can this shirt be worn for running or other land-based sports?
Yes, the lightweight, breathable, and moisture-wicking properties make it suitable for various outdoor activities, including running, hiking, or gym workouts, especially in warm weather.
Does the blue color fade easily?
To maintain color vibrancy, it is recommended to machine wash cold with like colors and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight after washing, as per the care instructions.
Troubleshooting
Shirt feels damp after activity
Ensure you are using the correct washing method as per care instructions. While Dri-FIT wicks moisture, prolonged saturation or improper washing can affect performance. Check that the shirt is not bunched up during wear, which can impede airflow.
Chafing despite flat seams
While flat seams minimize chafing, individual sensitivity varies. Ensure the fit is appropriate; a shirt that is too tight could still cause friction. Ensure the garment is fully rinsed after use to remove any salt or chlorine residue that could irritate the skin.
Reduced sun protection effectiveness
UPF protection is inherent to the fabric and does not diminish with normal washing. However, if the fabric becomes overly stretched or thinned, its protective capability might be slightly reduced. Inspect the fabric for wear and tear.
