FAQs

Is this top suitable for all winter sports?

While designed with soccer in mind, its Therma-FIT technology and sweat-wicking properties make it suitable for various cold-weather outdoor activities where warmth and flexibility are key, such as running, general training, or as a layering piece for hiking.

Can I wear this top as a base layer?

It can be worn as a mid-layer over a thinner base layer for added warmth. While it has sweat-wicking properties, its primary design, especially with the 1/2-zip, makes it more effective as an outer or mid-layer for adjustable temperature control.

How does Therma-FIT technology work?

Nike Therma-FIT technology uses a double-brushed microfiber fleece or similar fabric construction that traps a layer of warm air between your body and the garment, providing insulation and helping to manage your natural body heat in cold conditions.

What sizes are available?

Info needed: Please refer to the product page or size chart for available adult sizing options.

Will this top protect me from rain or snow?

This top is not designed to be waterproof or water-resistant. Its primary function is warmth and moisture-wicking. For protection against rain or snow, it should be paired with a waterproof or water-resistant outer shell.

Is the material stretchy?

Yes, the polyester material is designed to offer flexibility and allow for a full range of motion, which is crucial for athletic activities like soccer.

How durable is the 1/2-zip zipper?

The zipper is designed for athletic use and general durability. To ensure its longevity, avoid forcing it and ensure no fabric is caught when zipping or unzipping.

Troubleshooting

Feeling too warm during training.

Utilize the 1/2-zip design to increase ventilation. Partially or fully unzip the collar to allow heat to escape. If still too warm, consider wearing a lighter base layer next time or adjust your activity intensity.

Top feels damp or isn't wicking sweat effectively.

Ensure you are not wearing a cotton base layer underneath, as cotton retains moisture. Wear a synthetic, moisture-wicking base layer. Also, ensure the top is clean as residue from fabric softeners can impair wicking properties. If the issue persists, review care instructions to ensure proper washing.

Unpleasant odor after activity, even after washing.

Polyester can sometimes trap odors. Wash the top immediately after use. For stubborn odors, pre-soak the garment in a solution of water and white vinegar (1 cup vinegar to 1 gallon water) for 30 minutes before washing, or use a sports-specific detergent designed to neutralize odors. Avoid fabric softeners.
