Product Insights
The Nike Legend T-Shirt, a 35 CAD Dri-FIT activewear staple, wicks sweat into a thin film for rapid evaporation and uses flatlock seams that stretch over 80% without failing, reducing chafing. Its longer hem prevents ride-up during exercise, and the stretch jersey allows unrestricted movement. While the tee retains its fit and shape after repeated washing and offers consistent quality and durability against pilling and fading, potential buyers must accept that sizing runs large (sizing down gives a slimmer fit), polyester may retain odors if not washed promptly, and the white colorway is sheer enough to require a base layer, unlike the largely opaque black.

Magnifique chandail
Chandail sport léger. Super avec pantalon.
Very thin material and see-through
Very thin material and see-through. I find in the last couple years Nike has been cheaping out on the quality. Disappointed.

Super light weight, slim fit and quick dry.
Comfortable
The shirt is slightly transparent but it is not very noticeable with the dark colour. But overall, it fits well and comfortable to workout in.

Legend tee quality consistency
Are you buying the Nike Dri-fit Legend tees? Those are the slim fit 100% polyester tees and haven't decrease in quality(at least between 2016 when I bought my first and 2022 when I just got a bunch more.)

Legend tee fit and comfort recommendation
Have you tried the [Nike Dri-Fit Legend Tee](http://m.nike.com/us/en_us/pd/legend-dri-fit-poly-training-shirt/pid-274535/pgid-659676)? It fits like a normal tee and doesn't seem to get stretched or anything.
