Bought this shirt after trying the long sleeve version of the hydroguard shirt, this is a great shirt for hot summer wear. The shirt is lightweight and wears well as a normal shirt. Also, just a quick mention that the shirt dries quickly if it gets wet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While I liked this shirt, it is not without its flaws. While it gets the job done (protecting you from the sun while out on beach or pool day), the fit and style could be better. Nevertheless, let’s start with the positive. The shirt definitely delivers the UV protection it advertises. I tried it under a radiant Florida sun, from noon to late afternoon, and I did not get any skin irritation or sun burns. Of course, you would still need to wear sunscreen on uncovered skin. Similarly, the fabric does dry pretty fast; hence, you will not be dripping water after you go a swim with the shirt one. Now, for the negatives, the fit runs big. This would not be much of a problem if this wasn’t swimwear. I would prefer the shirt to be fitted so that it would not drag in the water. It makes moving in the water slightly more difficult. This might not be an issue if the fit was a bit tighter. Additionally, the style is somewhat bland. While I do understand this is just a swim shirt, the cut and loose fit make it seem unstylish. Again, a tighter fit could fix this problem. Thus, if you want a tight fit, maybe order a size down. That said, I do recommend trying it on before deciding. In conclusion, it gets the job done, it could just look and feel better.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I decided to wear this shirt for two main reasons this week. One was because we’re still “coming into summer” here in Texas so the water is still somewhat cool. The second reason is to test how well it prevents sunburn! The shirt is comfortable, fits well and doesn’t make me feel hotter on a warmer 80-90 degree day. My kids wanted to ride the water slide in our pool so my first dip in the water was quick and cool! The shirt will conform to you in the water so consider that, but upon exiting the shirt releases the water well and dries fast! I would sit down in a chair while the kids used the slide and dry out and it wouldn’t take long. I even skipped sunblock on my shoulders and back to see how well it prevents sunburn. After roughly 2 hours I noticed zero burning/redness on my back which is a life saver in these hotter months.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shirt worked really well as an alternative to wearing sunscreen in places where wildlife could be impacted. I was worried about overheating but that wasn’t an issue!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been wearing this shirt for over a week now while working out, and I highly recommend them to everyone. They fit perfectly, Surprisingly, my sweat doesn’t bother the shirt at all. The design ensures excellent breathability, making it incredibly comfortable to wear. I sometimes forget I’m even wearing them. Additionally, their exceptional flexibility allows for a full range of motion, which is crucial. In my opinion, the shirt is worth every penny, and will be getting more.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shirt is perfect for everything. Running, spending time in the sun, volleyball on the beach, even just chilling at home. It's super comfortable and soft, wicks sweaty, and is both light and protective. It feels like there's nothing on and the fit just works. It's great for any sort of water/beach sport. I took a picture at home to show the fit (runs slightly large) but this is definitely an outdoor shirt!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been really impressed with these shirts, I have several of them. The fit is true to size and comfortable, providing plenty of freedom of movement without feeling loose or restrictive. The design is clean, modern, and versatile enough to wear both in and out of the water. The fabric feels lightweight, breathable, and dries quickly after swimming. I especially appreciate how comfortable they remain throughout the day and the added sun protection they offer. What I liked most is the combination of comfort, performance, and versatility. These shirts transition seamlessly from swimming to everyday outdoor activities. If I could change one thing, I would add a bit more stretch to the shirt. Overall, these shirts exceeded my expectations and are great addition to my swimwear collection.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I feel like this is a well-made, black Nike shirt. Yes it’s a rash guard, but it’s not tight fitting in spandex so it could be worn as just a regular shirt as well - got this for my teenage son who hates to be in a tight rash guard all day. So this is something he could wear and not feel ridiculous like he’s wearing a swimsuit if he doesn’t end up truly needing to go into water. It’s been cold up here in the northeast. We haven’t had a true chance to test, but I do think this is something that will get a lot of use this summer and we’ll make it into the vacation bag.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nike Men’s Swim Essentials Hydroguard was a very comfortable shirt it fits perfectly on my body! I used it for not only normal everyday use but also in the gym to workout and then around the pool! It’s very hot where I live and so nice breathable shirts are a must for me! I love the feel of the shirt and just a plain black colored shirt is perfect! I would recommend this shirt to anyone it’s very much a multipurpose shirt easily. If they have this shirt in multiple color ways like neon colors or bright summer colors would be very cool to wear with some Nike shoes! The design is very simplistic and very effective I love it! The fabrics is comfy and doesn’t irritate or itch my body even when it was very hot and sweaty.what I liked the most is easily how fitting it is on my body not too tight or too loose literally a perfect fit! Nothing I would change about it just I’m sure there is more colors for the shirt but some nice summer Colors would be very dope! Royal blue, orange, green, yellow, red, hot pink

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nike Swim Essentials Men's Short Sleeve Hydroguard has been so great for me as someone who is always outdoors. I love that it has built in sun protection and it truly keeps me cool on hot days. It feels lightweight and super comfortable for swimming and all day wear.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a really solid, no-frills hydroguard tee that you can use for all your water purposes. Classic plain color with the Nike logo. The fit is right in the middle... not super form-fitting but not too relaxed either. You might want to go a size up if you're chubbier, but it's not skintight or anything like that. I'm going to trust that this does what it says it does and blocks a good deal of UV rays. This does dry very quickly and well, so this is great to just wear all day at the beach or waterpark as you go in and out of the water. If you go on boards or anything, this will do a great job of protecting your trunk as well. Not much else to say. Well made overall, but there was some bad stitching on the backend of the collar. If you're looking for a shirt to wear all day in/near the water, this is it!
