Nike Swift Women's Dri-FIT UV 1/4-Zip Running Top
Using insights from runners like you, Nike prioritised functionality to refresh the Swift essentials. This lightweight mid-layer has been designed to help reduce chafing. It's soft, sweat-wicking, and helps block UV rays so you can focus on your miles, nothing else.
Freedom of Movement
Modified raglan sleeves are designed to help reduce underarm chafing whilst allowing for a wider range of motion. The thoughtful sleeve construction eliminates irritation points during extended runs.
Advanced Moisture Management
Nike Dri-FIT technology pulls sweat away from your skin for faster evaporation, helping you maintain dryness and comfort throughout your training. The lightweight fabric (88% polyester/12% spandex) balances breathability with performance.
Smart Design Details
The top features a tapered waist, making layering with other pieces easier. A curved hem helps keep you covered through your stride. Thumbholes extend your coverage and help hold the sleeves in place during runs.
Practical Features
Watch windows on either sleeve make checking time easy without removing the top. A zip pocket on the left side seam fits items like earbuds, a key, or a card securely.
Visibility and Protection
Reflective Swoosh logo on the left chest and reflective graphics on the sleeves and back enhance visibility during low-light runs. The fabric provides UVA and UVB protection in areas covered by the garment, whilst the 1/4-length zipper with zipper guard offers ventilation control.
