This versatile, lightweight and highly wicking Zip-T can be worn alone with sleeves pushed up during rapid ascents but is equally suitable as a base layer for early morning starts. HeiQ technology neutralises odours and a deep centre front zip offers extra ventilation.

Our Verdict

The Mountain Equipment Women’s Nava LS Zip Tee is a well-designed, multipurpose piece that caters to the needs of active outdoor enthusiasts. This lightweight long-sleeve baselayer balances functionality and comfort, making it suitable for various activities and weather conditions.

At the core of this garment is its 125g m-2 lightweight fabric, which offers exceptional moisture-wicking properties. This feature is crucial for maintaining comfort during high-intensity activities or in varying temperatures. The material efficiently moves sweat away from the skin, helping to regulate body temperature and keep you dry.

One of the standout features is the HeiQ Fresh odor-neutralizing technology. This innovative treatment targets odour molecules, allowing you to stay fresh even during extended wear or multi-day adventures. It’s a welcome addition for those long hikes or climbs where laundry isn’t an option.

The deep YKK® centre front zip is a thoughtful design element that provides excellent ventilation options. This feature allows for quick temperature regulation, whether you’re heating up during a steep ascent or cooling down at rest stops.

The flatlock seams further enhance comfort, reducing chafing and irritation when worn next to the skin. The slim fit ensures a streamlined silhouette that works well both as a standalone piece and as a base layer under heavier garments.
