What is the Nava SS Zip-T?
The Nava SS (short sleeve) Zip-T is a highly functional and versatile top, ideal for long and strenuous days on the mountain. The high wicking, fast drying, Bluesign® approved fabric is exceptionally comfortable regardless of how hard you’re working. Whether you’re racing over ridgelines, or scrambling over scree, this base layer helps you to feel comfortable and fresh all day long.
What is it made of?
Constructed using Bluesign® approved 87% Recycled Polyester and 13% Polyester, the t-shirt feels super smooth and soft to touch. The fabric has been treated with HeiQ Fresh odour neutralising technology, which uses food industry sugar by-products to create one of the most environmentally friendly and least harmful ways of neutralising odour. It allows you to benefit from all the performance of Polyester without spoiling the fresh mountain air.
Bluesign® approval means that this base layer was manufactured in a much more ethical, eco-friendly way. Bluesign® ensures that no chemicals or processes which cause harm to the environment are used during the production of the t-shirt, making it a much more sustainable option than lesser quality pieces on the market.
What are its features?
At the top of the base layer, the Nava SS Zip T-shirt features a YKK deep centre front zip for easy access and extra ventilation when required – simply unzip the fastening to let more airflow in around the chest. A bonded zip insertion means potential chafe points have been removed to keep you comfortable throughout your adventures.
Flatlock seams offer supreme next-to-skin comfort thanks to their low bulk and smooth finish. The fabric feels super soft and cosy. It’s moisture wicking properties help to prevent the material from collecting sweat and moisture that would create a cold, clingy layer that feels pretty gross and uncomfortable.
HeiQ Fresh odour neutralising technology helps to stop you from being able to smell how hard you’ve worked and offending your pals during the car journey home afterwards. The top is finished with subtle reflective branding for some extra safety if you’re out and about after hours.
How does it fit?
This t-shirt comes in a slim fit to enhance the moisture wicking properties of the fabric while feeling close to the skin without being suffocating and restrictive.
Where does it fit in the layering system?
The Nava Zip-T can be worn alone when the weather is warm, or as a base layer when the elements are less favourable. The low weight and slim fit allow it to sit under your other layers without adding bulk to restrict your movement or slow you down.
