Description of The North Face Nimble Zip Shirt - Women's:
It can be hard to tell how thick a softshell is and what it’s really good for, which is why we’re here to tell you The North Face used its Apex Aerobic fabric to make the Women’s Nimble Zip Shirt for running, biking, and spring hiking. Apex Aerobic is the lightest, most breathable of the Apex fabric family, and The North Face added a DWR coating to this standard-fit pullover so your torso won’t get soaked during a light drizzle. Unzip the quarter-length front zipper to cool off and stash your key in the hip pocket.
Bottom Line: A lightweight softshell that doesn’t mind the drizzle.
Got this for a song on SAC and LOVE IT. The white has great black detailing on cuffs and collar. Collar was a little stiff at first but has worn in with 2 or 3 wearings. Great, light windshirt for layering. I am 5'5, 138, and the medium fits great with room to spare for an underlayer. Pocket is really useful, my only beef is that I wish there were 2 pockets instead of 1. Definitely long enough in arms and torso. GET IT!
